Kaihua Kailh Speed Switches

Jun 23, 2017

I recieved my batch of Coppers about a week ago but I was too busy/lazy to install them until tonight. Now I wish I'd done it sooner. They're a big change from the Gateron Browns I was using - to be honest it makes them seem postively linear in comparision - with a good amount of stiffness and very tactile feel. I second the comment about them being most comparably described as lighter Cherry MX Clears - I find regular Clears a bit too stiff as I'm quite a light-fingered typist, so these pack just the right amount of heft for me. So in short, really enjoying the Copper switches. Also wishing more of my keyboards had hotswappable functionality lol. Might be time to finally take up soldering. I'm now quite keen to try out Gold and Bronze sometime in the future.

moukimokyuWhat is the board at the bottom? The word I'm starting to use when I think about the copper's is velvety.

yanfaliMmm I think you're about right with velvety! The pink board is a Kananic 82 I got from AliExpress (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/KANANIC-White-Light-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard-CIY-Blue-Switch-Blue-Pink-Orange-Purple-PBT-Keycap-82/32796917535.html). It's very similar to the AJAZZ AK33 that drops here every so often, but with hotswappable keyswitches (comes with Longhua Blues as default; up until now I've been using Gateron Browns in mine), and every version except the black one comes with PBT keycaps. It's been my daily driver for the last 10 months and I love it. Being able to swap in new switches makes it feel like a new board again.
