Linear vs Tactile vs Clicky

On our site you will see all of the switches are preceded by the tag of "(L)" "(T)" or "(C)". What do these really mean? Well, those tags refer to the type of switch that the switch it. A linear switch refers to a switch that lacks a tactile bump. This means the weight of the switch progresses linearly through the whole keypress. A tactile switch is simply a switch that does come with a tactile bump. This means that at the point of actuation, greater force is required to overcome that point. This force is minimal but noticeable none the less. Clickies are similar to tactiles as they both have a tactile bump but the clickies also make an audible *click* once actuated
