Reply to comment by Svindel69 in Boba LT tick. Completely ruins the switch. by showxdoat369
According to what I've seen it's because of the lube. Imagine paying over half a dollar per switch and not being able to lube them. Absolutely unacceptable at this price point.

Unacceptable at any price point tbh.
I have only tried one switch that got worse after lubing, TTC wild.
Haven't tried boba LT, but definitely not gonna now.

How do you lube them?.

No matter how you lube a switch, it shouldn't create a problem.

Wow thanks for the lube tutorials I suppose, but I've been in this hobby for years and lubed 10+ sets of switches. I think I know how to lube switches man lmao.

It can't really go wrong. Only overlubing, but that's a completely different problem than what is being called out here...

I'd love to mess around and see what I can figure out when I get home, I only had around an hour to mess around with these before work and I get off in half an hour. Besides that though I just put in a two day order for some gateron cream sodas in case these don't satisfy me. Not looking forward to lubing an entire additional batch of switches again but oh well I suppose.
