The lovely Kailh switches we use in Keybow, now available seperately for incorporating into your other projects!
We tested out a lot of mechanical switches before we decided on the ones to use in our 3 key and 12 key Keybows, and these turned out to be our absolute favourites, they're very responsive with a low travel distance and high actuation rate. They're also partially transparent which makes them look very cool when mounted over LEDs!
If you'd like to grab some keycaps to go with them, we sell those too!
