Frequently asked
How tactile is the Gateron Cap V2 Milky Brown?
It's a light, rounded tactile bump near the top of the stroke — closer to a smooth nudge than a sharp tactile event. If you want aggressive feedback this isn't it, but it's pleasant for long typing sessions.
Do these switches need lubing?
They arrive factory lubed and feel good out of the box. Hand-lubing the springs can quiet any faint ping, but most people can run them stock.
What makes the housing "milky"?
The translucent Nylon PA66 housing diffuses light rather than channeling it, giving a softer glow under RGB and contributing to a slightly deeper, more muted sound signature.
