Know before you buy
The 'Lubed Only' option provides a smoother keystroke using Krytox 205g0 and 105. Choosing 'Lubed and Filmed' adds Deskey switch films, which tighten the housing tolerance to reduce wobble and create a slightly deeper, more refined sound profile.
These are 5-pin switches, which are compatible with most modern hot-swappable mechanical keyboards. If your keyboard PCB only supports 3-pin switches, you can easily clip off the two extra plastic guide pins to make them fit.
The LY stem is known for its low-friction properties and unique sound signature. When paired with the POM housings, it creates a very smooth linear travel and a distinct, crisp bottom-out sound.
A 55g actuation force is considered a medium-light weight. It is ideal for most users, providing enough resistance to prevent accidental key presses while remaining light enough to minimize finger fatigue during long typing or gaming sessions.
Yes, the Laguna Blue switches are designed to accommodate standard SMD RGB LEDs. The housing material allows for decent light diffusion, though the specific color of the switch housing may slightly tint the overall glow of your backlight.
