Frequently asked

How heavy is the Wild Gardenia?

It actuates at 45g and bottoms out at 56g, a medium linear weight that feels balanced for both typing and gaming.

What does the POK top housing do for the sound?

POK over a PA66 nylon bottom gives a clean, slightly deep signature rather than a sharp clack. The full 4.0mm travel adds a bit more poppiness on the bottom-out.

Is it lubed from the factory?

The spring and contact leaf are factory-lubed, which kills ping, but the rails could use a light hand-lube if you want maximum smoothness.
