Take a walk on the mild side.
This simple mod yields a more clean tactile profile than a Polia while taking off the 'Roo’s sharp edge.
Flavor-text:
Do you want a silky-smooth Ink tactile with a bit less 'tude than the NK Kangaroo? Well. If the 'roo is Surge then the Lilac Tea is, um… tea.
That is to say, while the switch shares a similar tactile bump profile to the harsh Heisenbergs, the relative weighting between the spring’s bottom-out and the peak force of the bump makes for a very different and altogether more gentle experience.
Where the 'bergs practically demand smashing the bottom-housing with the stem, the Polia’s spring and 'Roo’s leaf make it much easier to have a very light bottom-out.
Compared with a Holy Panda, the bump and bottom-out alike are quite a bit softer despite sharing the shortened travel via the center post.
With a gentle appearance to match its character, the Lilac Tea could be a good option for those seeking a high quality tactile switch of the less bombastic variety.
