switch guide & quantities needed
switch guide & quantities needed
these are MX switches designed to be used with mechanical, hot-swappable keyboards.
most switches have been upgraded from 3-pin to 5-pin, for added stability.
as a general guide on how many switches to get (1 quantity added to cart = 10 switches):
- 60-65% layout: 70-80 switches
- 75% layout: 90 switches
- TKL layout (87 keys): 90-100 switches
- full sized 96%-100% layout: 110 switches
we recommend getting extra switches in case of pins getting bent, or degeneration over time.

deskmat care
deskmat care
as our deskmats are not waterproof, here are some recommended ways to keep them clean in case of spills/stains!
- hand wash only - washers may fray or rip the fabric
- use a mild soap - can be diluted dish soap, body soap, hand soap
- use a soft brush or sponge to wash the surface just like washing clothes
- hang to dry, dries in 1-2 days!
- for tougher stains, you may apply some baking soda + water and rub the stain off! it should lift in 1-2 minutes.
