EPOMAKER Sea Salt Silent Mechanical Keyboard Switches Set, 5-Pin Switch, Pre-Lubed Linear Switch with LED Slot, 35 Pieces for Customizing Gaming Keyboards

I have these in my daily use keyboard which came with the snow switches default. The snow switches are not bad at all but they're a little too clicky for me. My ideal sound from a keyboard is no sound at all. I do not want clicky, clacky or scratchy switches. The pursuit of the perfect silent switch is not easy but I have come really close to my version of silence when I popped these sea salt linears in. They may not be the greatest silent but they are so close that the only sound I get is from the space bar. That's not a switch failure, it's a space bar thing. Any space bar can be annoying and not pleasant but it is 100% better than before I used the sea salts. I will do some tuning on the stabs later but for now it is acceptable.These sea salt switches are the linear and extremely quiet, so matched with the right board and keycaps you can have a nearly inaudible keyboard. Great for office and home where the clicky, clacky switches are not welcome. Or if you yourself just cannot abide irritating sounds which can drive you mad.The feel of the sea salts are very nice and they are pre-lubed which I find rather time saving. I didn't even have to apply lube at all because they were perfect out of the box. They are also made well and are not flimsy materials which I like, the sea salts are solid. I think you will get your money's worth from these switches, I did not get one bad switch in the entire lot and I ordered 2 sets.The only suggestion I would make is that the stems were longer because even though they fit my Azoth just fine, they are just a little short in my other keyboards. I could use taller keycaps or taller springs but I do not want to go changing the ones I have in the other boards just to get the best height profile to use these sea salts on them, I will find some silents with longer stems some day. It all comes down to preference and I like what I like. Besides the stem length these are just great. They are so smooth, not scratchy, and the leaf springs don't ping either. I highly recommend these sea salt silent linear switches and I will be buying another batch soon for some other boards. If you value silent, quiet switches then you will be happy with these sea salts. In my opinion these are a 5 out of 5.

The media could not be loaded. I would have given 5 stars however one of my switches didn’t work. Luckily I have a few extras. I was completely happy with the louder switches that came with my Aula F99pro, however I use the keyboard in my office and didn’t want to annoy my coworkers. These switches are so quiet. Yes there is still noise because you are typing. They still give you that typing feel that comes with a mechanical keyboard just much more quite.Edit —- I changed to 5 stars switch wasn’t broke one pin just bent. Love these switches and they are great for office environments.

10/10 switches. They sound quiet but not too quiet, so you can't hear them. I bought them so I could do my schoolwork at night without waking up my roommates. I highly recommend these switches!

The sea salt silent is a good product but I need to clarify some points:1. There are very good for writing text on a custom keyboard but for gaming maybe I will choose others, this keycaps do not allow high response because when you press the switch you need to release the finger until pressed again to generate another action, means that you need to remove the finger to the keycap in order to press again the switch and generate another action, for this reason in videogames this switches are not the best, usable, but is better go for a gaming switch with lower re-activation space.2. It says Silent, but Silent doesn't mean no sound, there is a sound when you release the finger from the switch it is the crash between plastic and plastic internally, specifically the stem tap the uppercover in the sitch. It sounds even if you lub manually the switch still sounds, maybe with a little tinny piece of gum inside the sitch. However, it is very difficult to do and also takes a lot of time and is expensive but still quiet in comparison with other kinds of switches, for work in office use are very good.3. To be more silent I used another thing the Rubber O-Ring Switch Dampeners Keycap which is a little gum that we put in the keycap that reduces the vibration and the sound, with this modding and also using the HONKID Keyboard Spacebar Foam I have a very silent keyboard but is not like no sound, still sound but very low.For quiet and almost no sound switches maybe another silent switch from another brand, the Epomaker accomplishes but for the issues in gaming and the little sound typing maybe a gateron switch silent is better

I've been searching for the best keyboards, keycaps, switches, that fit my personal preferences and for switches, my never-ending search for the best of the best, has ended or at least paused. Most Silent Switches leave you feeling like there is another barrier or another step missing from the overall key-press, but with these switches being "boxed" it gives you the heavier, sturdier feel of a tactile keyboard but still has the linear feel, followed by the sweet sound of heavily dampened keys. If you want silent, sturdy, smooth, linear switches. Do this one.
