I played around with a Huntsman Mini a bit in my local Micro Center and loved how smooth the linear optical reds felt. They had just the right amount of resistance too. The choc reds I’m using in my sofle right now feel too heavy and cumbersome to me at 50g. I want a switch that feels smoother and is slightly easier to depress. Got myself a switch tester from aliexpress but I’m still having a hard time deciding. The only two switches that I don’t have in my tester are the Purpz and the Sunsets. Not really interested in tactile though and I’m pretty sure the Purpz would be too light for my liking.

On paper I’d think the silvers would be fairly close but in reality, it doesn’t feel that much lighter than the reds, even though it’s 10g lighter. Plus, I know the tester can only get me so far and that a whole board of switches is going to feel vastly different than a single switch. Thoughts, advice? Thanks!

    Do you know if there’s any diff between the pro reds and crystal reds aside from housing material and stem color? I have them side by side here and can’t really figure it out. Same with the pinks and blue robins.
