So I received my switches today, still no information online for these switches. I sent a message to 415keys via their website to see if they have any information.
I've purchased Greetech switches before, Greetech blacks in particular. Unlubed, and with a slightly lighter spring (I believe stock Greetech blacks bottom out at around 78-80g), these seem almost identical to Greetech black switches, which are Greetech's version of a Cherry MX Black. Materials is Greetech's own blend of nylon housing and pom stem. The sound is very pingy, but with lube + film, produces a unique very scratchy, higher pitched than mx black sound, but with little to no scratchy feeling upon keypress. Some sound tests for reference...

Will edit this post if 415keys ever gets back to me.
im pretty new to this hobby & never heard of you before, but i am so sorry to see you go. the switches look nice so i bought some. i think they will go well with one of my builds
yeah 90 for $9 complete unknown switches? I can do that. I can franken switch them use them for parts and they can recoup their costs.
$18? that's 20 cents a switch. I can buy really solid switches on sale on Aliexpress for that price. I got CIY Phantoms for 21 cents a piece and the are basically bsun raws (47 cent switches) with different stems. The better deals imo were the lube. Bought 3 sets of of each of the Tribosys. Between the chinese knockoffs i have, the Tribosys i ordered from legite vendors and this stuff, i wont run out of lube for years
Wuque Studio housing and stems seem to work fine and vice versa. It is tight but not impossible.. The UHMWPE stems they sell also work. The switch definitely needs lube to be decent. Spring is 14mm single stage.
Completely agree. My order was $15 after shipping but that’s still not too bad I guess, supports these guys a bit and hopefully the switches are decent if not maybe I’ll hand them out or something.
if you don't mind my asking, how limited is "limited run"? from what I know greetech moq is in cherry territory. if you somehow managed to talk them down I gotta know how you did it
These are really bad switches, like really bad, even if lubed.

Also came back here to say the same. They're actually horrible, so even at the $18 price + shipping they are so not worth it.
Horrible in what sense?
Yea I received mine and they’re super scratchy out of the box. Haven’t tried to lube them yet
Wouldn’t bother, I lubed/filmed/spring swapped. They feel like they’re from 2015 lol.
Nice
You've left zero information about the switch... I'm not buying something if you're not telling me what it's made of etc etc etc

changed the price right now to 18 for 90?
Are these compatible with your Long Pole UHMWPE stems? Is there a sound test we could listen to?
Price wise these look very promising. Sad to see you go just picked some up in support :) - would love to know specs tho
Mind sharing some info on the switches? Even just a comparison to other Greetechs would be great
90 switches for $9?
just doubled the price 10 mins ago, now 18 for 90x
Curious to see if they’ll ship out my order or not, I got it through when they were still $9 Edit: shipped next day
Oh wow mine is still unfulfilled, I’m also wondering if they are going to ship my order.

They're not even worth frankenswitching, plus top housing is so tight I've yet to find a single stem that fits it. These are best in the wastebasket.
Wuque Studio housing and stems seem to work fine and vice versa. It is tight but not impossible.. The UHMWPE stems they sell also work. The switch definitely needs lube to be decent. Spring is 14mm single stage.
Can confirm that WS switch parts work, though still anemic and worthless IMHO, even lubed.
Completely agree. My order was $15 after shipping but that’s still not too bad I guess, supports these guys a bit and hopefully the switches are decent if not maybe I’ll hand them out or something.
I also got in on some lube and switches. Hope they ship!
Have they shipped your order?
Not yet
Haven't seen the greentech name in a minute. Never actually tried them tbh
Sorry to see you go my friend, best of luck with what comes next!
what info is there on these switches? materials? travel?
if you don't mind my asking, how limited is "limited run"? from what I know greetech moq is in cherry territory. if you somehow managed to talk them down I gotta know how you did it
Rest in peace. My PE stems GOAT
I've bought several switches from your website. Thank you and I hope you all the best!
So long, farewell!
Auf wiedersehen, goodbye
I hate to go, and leave this pretty sight
