Frequently asked
What is the difference between the Hyacinth V2 and V2U?
They share the same 45g/52g weighting, POM stem and PC-over-nylon housing. The difference is travel: the standard V2 has a 3.5mm total travel, while the V2U is a long-pole-style 3.9mm for a deeper, fuller stroke.
How heavy is the Hyacinth?
It actuates around 45g and bottoms out near 52g — a comfortable medium weight that works for both typing and gaming.
Is the Hyacinth good stock?
Yes. It comes factory lubed and feels smooth out of the box, so most people can use it as-is without any tuning.
