Thanks mate. I just dropped my jag when i saw that list. So i can ignore it and order someday?

[fart_toast]

What switch type do you get if your keyboard is both PCB and plate mounted.... according to the internet my ducky shine 2 is?

Is it the case that one type can only do PCB where as the other can do Plate and PCB together or something?

Cheers

[fart_toast]

Seems like if I get the MXGREEN/NW switches then I cover both bases...(both PCB and plate mount) as I can just clip the extra holder pins off the bottom for a plate mount keyboard? Am I correct?

[Muirium]

Yup. PCB mounts are the more flexible option.

[Halvar]

Yes, the pins are the only difference. Looks like you should get PBC mounted switches for a Ducky Shine 2:

[fart_toast]

I like blues and am interested in greens BUT I hear that the mx whites are in between the two in strength and actually have a slightly quieter click so it may be more likely that I can get away with them in the office (if not i'll keeo the keyboard at home)

Getting whites seems like a win-win as i'll get slightly stiffer switches than blues which I really like the idea of and they should be quieter (a bit - even if it's just pitch of the click etc).

BUT

on this order which are the switches between blues and greens?...WHITES? / MILKS ?/ CLEARS? ... different people use different names...

I think i will throw an GREEN in the order too to try for the space bar (can always change it back to a white if I don't like it!)

You really should read the wonderful wiki here. It will answers your questions and so much more.

order #0447

Hi, again.
Sorry, I hate to be annoying but I'm really desperate about my switches. They were in stock when I ordered them (MX-BROWN/NW). Payment was done and update in this thread.
This weekend I almost unsoldered my FILCO switches to build my ergodox
So please tell me that they are on their way

many thanks
Lord Voltron

Those are plate mounted switches, not PCB mounted switches.

Yes, the pins are the only difference. Looks like you should get PBC mounted switches for a Ducky Shine 2:

Those are plate mounted switches, not PCB mounted switches.

Yes but if I get PCB mounted ones I can always cut the witch mounts off? They might go on a Poker KBT 2 now rather than the Ducky Shine 2... both are plate mount I believe! Just deciding between greens or whites.

Whites are indeed the often forgotten third member of Cherry's clicky MX lineup. 7bit calls them whites, too. Worth a try. I like greens better, but I also buckle springs…

@7bit (I guess this is directed at you :p) What's the current stock on MX WHITE and GREEN? (either PCB or plate mount but prefer PCB)

Any updates yet on #0363? It's been almost 5 months since I ordered. By the way, if I ordered MXLOCK and there aren't any to send to me, am I getting my money back?

Only 3 to me The production was delayed by Cherry for some MX flavour. They must be delivered to 7bit this month.
And yes you'll get a refund for Locks.
