Nice work. But you have the incorrect bottom-out force for Cherry MX Clears. Per Novelkeys, it's 85g; per switches.mx, it's 95g. The force curve on Cherry's website suggests that switches.mx is correct.

Agreed. It's as if NK called all their suppliers and asked for their unsellable inventory.

Thanks. I Googled KS-3 and these appear to be KS-3 Whites, which are 35g linears but not silent. (Oddly, Gateron's own webpage for the KS-3 Full Black series doesn't even list Whites as one of the available varieties.)
This is great. I hate overly-light switches (my favorite spring is 67g) and I hate linears, so now I have a set of 35g linears. Looking on the bright side, at least I won't be tempted to buy a new keyboard to put these switches into.
EDIT: Here's where I found the KS-3 Whites. And I accidentally typed "like" instead of "hate" originally.

They have the Gateron logo on the top housing. They are clearly linear. The only Gateron switch I can find online that looks like these are the Gateron Silent Clears. However, I put one into a board that otherwise has Ajazz Kiwis and these aren't any quieter than the Kiwis -- just higher pitched -- so I would consider it a stretch to call them "silent."

Exactly! Everyone should have a fully-charged Keychron K-series keyboard handy in case of a power outage.

I'm so glad you posted this - I had no idea the Q10 was available in purple. It's odd that Keychron doesn't sell the purple model on its own website. I wonder if the purple one is some sort of "exclusive" for mechanicalkeyboards.com.

I noticed that. It's as if GMK were to write a blog post about PBT keycaps.

Couldn't you lube by the light of an RGB keyboard? Probably would be quite bright without switches and keycaps.

That's why there are ortholinear keyboards, in which the keys are arranged in a uniform grid, with each finger's "assigned" keys in a straight column.

Nice try — don’t know where you copied and pasted from — but it has nothing at all to do with your initial proposition.

Qwertykeys published its own build guide for the QK75, which is what I used when I built mine. I tried to post the link but the Auto Mod bot deleted my post. If you google "QK75 build guide" you can find it.
