I’ll be trying them in a board soon, but I bought them mainly out of curiosity about whether they were jacket or bar-based clickies. I couldn’t find a definitive answer easily, so I figured what the heck I’ll document it at some point so the next person will know.
Kailh Pro Light Greens use click jackets, and the Navies use bars.
The Navies are also heavy af @ 100g peak force and 100G bottom-out. The PLGs are more in the realm of normal, and do seem pretty solid for a jacket switch at first glance. I’m glad to have an example of Kailh click jacket switches to compare with the other mfr’s switches.
I have some Speed Navies in a board, I like them in terms of weight but the actuation travel is a little short for my liking so I figured something like the Pro Light Greens with a a .5mm lower actuation point might be more suitable for my typing style even if I would have to spring swap them. I was operating under the assumption too that the Pro Light Greens were a clickbar switch, thank you for mentioning that they’re a click jacket. Would be interesting to see how they jail-mod.
It got sideloaded from Greek and Phoenician but then later it was deprecated.
“The Latin alphabet of 23 letters was derived in the 600’s BC from the Etruscan alphabet of 26 letters, which was in turn derived from the archaic Greek alphabet, which came from the Phoenician. … Eventually, K became vestigial in Latin, used only for a few words like Kalendae and Kaeso”
Silver with the polished stainless steel (A-Stock). I could not be more stunned that I won a raffle.
I selected the brass plate in case I try to resell it in the future, but I need to figure out their system for ordering extras so I can get some other material that I am more likely to use.
I have no idea what I am going to put on it. I am thinking GMK Bushido. People really dislike that set, but it is actually killer on a silver board.
Next engine v3 switches. i still don’t know much about those switches. also JWK ultimate blacks, some different o-rings for burger mounting, and olivia clones from that new manufacturer just to see if they’ve improved.
