thockyFrequently asked
Does the HMX Amber 45g need to be lubed?
No. Factory lubing is consistent and the POM stem already glides cleanly on the PC housing, so most people run these happily stock. A light hand-lube only adds a marginal polish if you enjoy the process.
Is 45g too light for typing?
It is on the lighter side, with a 50g bottom-out, which suits fast typists and gamers who want minimal resistance. If you tend to bottom out hard or rest heavy fingers, a 50-55g switch may be more comfortable.
What does the HMX Amber 45g sound like?
Deep and muted rather than clacky, thanks to the POM stem and P5 bottom housing. It pairs well with a poron-dampened build for a rounded, marble-like signature.
