KAILH Wholesales Box Royal Navy Blue Jade Pink Heavy Box 3 pin Switches IP56 Water-Proof Compatible Cherry MX Switches

Kailh Box 3-pin switches sold in one listing that names Royal, Navy, Blue, Jade, Pink and Heavy options, with an IP56 water and dirt rating. Switches only, no keyboard.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + The listing states an IP56 water-proof and dirt-proof rating, which suits the dust-resistant Box design this guide is about.
  • + Kailh quotes a life of around 80 million keystrokes, longer than the listing says is usual for switches.
  • + Compatible with Cherry MX style sockets, and the listing is clear that the package contains switches only.

Trade-offs

  • - The listing says these switches work only with SMD LEDs, so through-hole LED boards need soldering work first.
  • - One listing covers several Box variants with different forces, so check which type you choose before ordering.
