Anyone have problems with Gateron switch tops breaking?
« on: Tue, 31 January 2017, 00:14:23 »
I took them off 2 times to lube and spring swap and ended up having to change about 6 of them. The south end where the LED sits slightly breaks. Is this a normal situation with them?

There are a few Gateron KS-3 variants, namely those with and without SMD LED support. Perhaps you own the former and they are more fragile. Would you post a picture?

A pic would help, but I can just throw in my experiences. I've been using Gaterons for quite some time (including 3 custom builds) and I've never had this issue.
