I’m calling 'em Speedboats, but they’re Tecsee’s Sapphire tactiles.

Thank you for this! I really appreciate it. This helps really clear some things up on my end. Great analysis as usual.
This may have to be my next switch. Durock/JWK have so many options now in the ballpark of what I like… makes it really hard to pick something.
Only bummer is the fact that second hand switches are not really selling that well these days unless it is a meme or new hotness… hard to test and find something you like.
Also, got my Rara switches in! They are quite nice. Like if an HP and a T1 had a baby I think.
3 shares of AMZN. That’s the move.

whats your verdict on the HaluHalos?
They are being sold for pretty good prices on mykeyboard right now.
Unfortunately, I don’t know how much I can help; the original round of HaluHalos was made by JWK, but this new round is made by KTT. Colors are cute, though

Its not keyboard related but I finally got a dress I ordered for a friends wedding… that happened last week. I ordered it almost a month before her wedding (not a custom dress or anything, just from Catherines) and I have to return it cause its too tight around my hips. That and it has a cute bow that wraps around part of the dress and it was ripped from the dress.

That’s pretty damn clean in the world of 2nd hand vintage boards TBH. I see the caps are a little funky, but the switches look pretty damn clean. Awesome pick up!

I’ve been experimenting with ordering keyboard parts from Amazon as they now carry through their affiliate sellers switches, lube, stabilizers, lube stations, etc.
I prefer supporting small businesses, but sometimes convenience wins.
Recently I picked up a 60% b-stock PCB that had no stab holes on the 2.75u right shift I think from Keebsforall. I had no Tsangan layout plates left so I thought a cheap plate and cheap plate foam from Amazon would go well with the PCB… well…
The Amazon plate foam looks awful! Scrunched up, not soft, poorly cut… probably not useable just junk.
The Amazon aluminum plate, however, is nicer than some I’ve gotten from KBDfans. Especially the finish. Aluminum is not my favorite plate material, but again I was going for Amazon convenience here.
Pics of the Amazon products below. I also picked up a new lube station. Not pictured, nothing special about it and I haven’t tried to use it yet.

The Red/White/Green are the new Australian-themed ‘Snag’ switches based on the logo to their Discord server while the Yellow and Green ones are unreleased prototypes that were decided against due to color matching issues!
