What is AKKO Custom Series (CS)

This series is the newly designed switches for customers who have specific needs. Different from traditional switches, AKKO CS has made some improvements based on customer’s experience. It contains distinct features. Unlike AKKO V2 switches, CS switches feature a spiral spring design. We have made six types of CS switches, tactile ocean blue and lavender Purple/linear matcha green/linear rose red, vintage white and radiant red. No matter you are in favor of which type, we cover it all.

About Lubes

It is always subjective when it comes to the level of lubes that need to be applied on individual switch. Meanwhile, lubing the switches by machine might also affect the lifespan of switches. Concerning those factors, AKKO CS switches (except for the lubed versions) will not come factory-lubed at the moment. AKKO CS switches do have a thin layer of dry film in the shrapnel for lubrication purpose, but there is no lube at all on any other parts such as top, stem or spring.

Compatible with MX Structure Keycaps

AKKO CS switches are designed with general MX structure so that they can fit most keycaps sets with (X) cross stem. This greatly improves the compatibility and you can feel free to change the switch and remake your own keyboard

Built-in LED Slot & Durable Lifespan

AKKO CS switches are equipped with north-facing LED slot for LED modification. It is also compatible with SMD LED. This provides more fun feature and options for those who are DIYers. With a lifespan of approximate 50 million times of keystrokes based on laboratory durability test, you are rest assured with the long lifespan.

Chose The Type Based On Your Needs

These extra three types of AKKO CS switches are designed with different configurations to meed various needs. Vintage white comes with an extremely light actuation force of 35g with 22mm extension spring, which makes it more suitable for long hours of typing; radiant red comes with 53gf operating force, 3.5mm total travel, better for gamers; regarding lavender purple, it’s tactile with an 18mm extension spring, so you can fully feel the pleasure of typing and gaming. The sakura switches are equipped with dustproof structure and POM bottom case.

    Really good switches

    I bought them for my first custom keyboard. I didn't lube them and even stock they sound great. Would recommend
