Product Description

AKKO CS Switch Series - The AKKO Custom Series (CS) switches are 3-pin custom switches made for DIY enthusiasts who wish to obtain satisfying typing feelings at a more affordable price.
Ocean Blue 36gf Tactile Switches - Unlike Ocean Blue, Lavender Purple is not a tactile switch, but instead has built-in 18mm extension springs which allows a smooth modulation of the switch after the high tactile bump at 0 degrees. Approximately 5 mm.
Integrated LED slot - The Akko CS switches come equipped with a north-facing LED slot that is ready for LED modification or assembly, and is SMD compatible (LED underneath).
Testing in a laboratory measures the durability of the device to be approximately 50 million times of keystrokes.
Akko CS switches come with a MX style structure, so they are compatible with most keycap sets with cross stems (X). An opener switch is not included in the package.

Questions & Answers

Is this something that can be implemented in Royal Klemfir's RK68 link Visit our website. The Amazon website. What is SMID=A1I?

You can use these with the Royal Kludge RK68 (as well as the RK84) if they are compatible.

Is there a way to determine if cutting the two metal pins will have an effect on how well the switch ?

There are three pins on it. The switch will not work if you cut the two metal pins off. This is what transmits the signals between the keyboard and the switches.

How will the Sakko rose reds fit in my GM610?

There is a 3 pin PCB on the GM610, so you can use any of the Akko or Kailh switches

Can you use these with the Razor Hutsman Purple Mini Switches?

It is true. You need to desolder the switches on the razor huntsman and the LEDs so that you can remove the LEDs. Remember that if you open the board, you void the warranty as it is not hotswappable, therefore you cannot just pull out the switches. In order to make these devices easy to use, you should purchase a hotswappable keyboard

I love the tactiles on this stock
5/5

My first impression of the ocean blues stock was that they felt Several of them were lubed and the lube makes them more tactile, though I personally prefer them stock over lubed. I think I may have applied too much lube and this made them less smooth. Although the matcha greens and rose reds are 100% worth lubing, it was noticable how smooth it made me feel. Despite the fact that they are already pretty smooth, there was a decent bit of spring ping (maybe only for my batch?". There was no pinging after lubing them, so they were very nice. I also have Milky Yellows and they sound distinctly different from the Matcha Greens and Rose Reds, being deeper while the Greens and Reds were smoother and Smoothness or deeper sound is what makes a difference. As far as I'm concerned, the yellows are still a really good option, and the greens and reds are good choices if you're looking for something a little smoother and less scratchy.

I think that all three of these choices are great, and none of them can go wrong.

This is an example of a rose-red switch from AKKO
5/5

In a nutshell, There is no doubt that these are the best switches on the market. $13 was the low price I paid for mine. '99 with a pack of 45 switches, I purchased two boxes for my 60% keyboard. They sound great and are definitely something new you should check out if you're looking for a great keyboard. My sincere gratitude goes out to.

Switching on a budget has never been easier
5/5

In a nutshell, When I saw the price, I knew I had to try them. I'm not sure where I first heard about these switches, but I had to give them a try. In stock form, they are good. They come with minimal springs, and there is As soon as these were lubricated, however, they became even better. I would consider them to have a "higher" pitch than my Black Inks, but the actuation is smooth, and the typing is smooth. These switches are definitely a good choice for people on a budget or who want to try out another brand for the first time.

Straight out of the box they are superb and even better when they are lubricated
5/5

I am very impressed with the quality of these switches. Every switch I have used has been filmed, and I had planned to film these, but they are made too well for me to film them. My films are too thin to be accepted due to the very good tolerance. The vinyl cutter I use to create my films helps me make them myself. These thinnest films are made of vinyl which is about half as thick as normal films and they are too thin to Using these switches is a breeze out of the box, and they don't even need to be lubricated. While I didn't lube them, I did see if it made a difference. The benefit is there, but not everyone may find it worth the time. When it comes to tactile switches, like the Ocean Blues, Trybosys 3203 is perfect. If you are looking to lube linear components, I recommend Tribosys 3204.

I bought 2 more after my initial order of 90 (2 packs) was so good. In addition, I have 2 more coming from China.

A top-tier product at an affordable price
5/5

With a price like that, there is a great deal of value here. As for the quality of these switches, I would compare them with those offered by Zeal and Durock, but at a substantially lower price.

To begin with, the packaging for these switches is Printed graphics and good quality graphics provide this cardboard box with a nice feel. Every switch is housed and protected inside a plastic tray inside of the box. You can easily imagine that each switch was in perfect working order, without a bent pin to be seen. In contrast, ordering bulk from other keyboard storefronts would result in switches being shipped in loose plastic bags. Next, we come to the actual switches. *BR>The tactility of this material differs from that of the Durock T1, but it is much more than that of This switch has a nice smooth bump, but it's very noticeable. The spring is light, making these switches ergonomic and comfortable to use. It is true, these switches have a small amount of scratchiness, but everything can be fixed by lubricant, which these switches accept well. This is an excellent option for anyone who is building a keyboard and prefers tactiles, since it is extremely hard to beat at such a low price!.

I think this was a great budget switch! It's great! I really like it! As you can see, they sound fantastic! I lubed up the keys for my girlfriend's 65% keyboard, and I am very pleased with the result
5/5

The cap opens with a kailh style cap, not an The three-pronged design is not a five-prong design. There are not very strong, but they have a tactile quality. It's because of how cheap they are and how good they sound and feel after lubing and installing them in a nice set of keycaps that I definitely recommend them.

I like how tactile this switch is
5/5

Because switches are a matter of personal preference, reviewing them isn't easy, but let's start with the audio. Due to the material of the switch, there is a slight pop when you bottom out and when the stem hits the top housing. There is more texture than a brown, but not quite a Zealios or Boba U4T -- if you have used those, then you get an idea of how tactile it is, but not quite as much as In my experience, they do need to be lubricated to get rid of the noise that comes from the leaf. With trybosis 3404, I had to very lightly lubricate the legs of the switches to keep them tactilious. The sound they give off is impressive, and the quality is good with the exception of the leaf ping that goes away completely after some lubrication.

A solid value for the money
4/5

When unlubed, it is loud On the upstroke the sound is very plasticky. In sum, these are an excellent value for the price. They are very similar in feel to holy pandas, but without the bottom out pole. A bump in the shape of a D. A solid amount more quietness is achieved when using 205g0 on the upstroke. I am surprised with how little stem wobble it has (lower than my Zealio). In summary, these switches are of exceptional quality for the price - given you take the time to lube them (they don't require films to operate), they have no equal.
