About this deal

And because of this I would personally recommend a harder (or less universal) plate when building with these switches. We use USB HID with the highest frequency of 1000Hz polling rate, meaning the keyboard is sending its input signal(s) to your PC 1000 times per second. In terms of overall sound, while the Kailh Pro Light Greens are slightly higher pitched than that of the Mute Jades, they are surprisingly similar in terms of overall volume and the closest comparison out of this initial comparison list. Initially it was rather disappointing, but once the latest driver was installed it was quite impressive.

As well, the addition of the O-ring in the jailhouse modification of the Cherry MX Blue switch did absolutely nothing to alter the stem wobble of the switch, continuing to make it significantly more wobbly than the Kailh Box Mute Jades. So I must apologize ahead of time, even though I planned on making this post I completely forgot to take any pictures, but without further ado let's get on with the "review. The slider rails are not centered on the B side of the stem, making measurements like D impossible to functionally use for calculations. To some degree, Mike is entirely correct with this statement as these definitely don’t feel like normal Box Jades. Extremely wear-resistant internal components with IP40 dust-proof features provide a long-lasting and stable quality lifespan.Aside from the Kailh Box regular switches, the Box Jade, Box Navy and Box Cream also join the family. Great quality keyboard with lots of customization options to make it feel/sound and look exactly how you want it.

As well, the top housings have no budge to them whatsoever due to the iconic winglatch style design, as to be expected. per switch I think that they’re worth exploring purely for curiosity’s sake, completely ignoring the fact that they could be a precursor to a new switch or even potentially usher in a new set of ideas for modifying existing switches. Beyond these two features, and looking internally to the base of the bottom housing, it’s worth noting several channels and mold design features which do not appear to have any functionality as well as a complete absence of slider rail receivers. I’m not entirely sure how this similarity in performance was reached out of all of those on this list, but who am I to judge. Don’t worry though, the Cherry MX Jailhouse Blue still has plenty of scratch sound to it throughout the entirety of the stroke.

The Kailh Box Switches cannot be applied to Keychron non hot-swappable version keyboards, Keychron Optical switch version keyboards, and Keychron low profile keyboards. The stem wobble on these switches, in both the N/S and E/W directions is as expected not entirely all that great nor overly poor.Additionally, the fact that the measurement sheet also doubles as a means by which someone can effectively test frankenswitching combinations between stems and top housings to estimate wobble without actually having to try the switches first kind of kills the inclusion of the Kailh Box Muted Jades as Box style stems are incompatible with traditional MX style housings. As for the ‘scratchiness’ of the tactile bump, I have previously referred to this phenomenon as ‘singular’ versus ‘grainy’ feeling tactile bumps, in which this would definitely fall under the grainer side. The box around the stem is not just for aesthetics either, it's for dust protection as well as keycap stability. Quite honestly, I feel inclined to keep the introduction to this review relatively short and sweet as not all that much has really happened since I sat down and put together the previous review on the Gateron Oil King switches a few weeks ago.
