Hi all, I have a quick and possibly very simple question. I have a keychron V6 with red switches being delivered to me tomorrow. I just want to know what switches and keycaps will fit this keyboard? This is my very first mechanical/swappable keyboard and I know nothing about it. I want to try other switches, mainly brown, blue and yellow. Also want to have a different look keycaps every now and then. I’ve searched on their site, but I had no idea which ones to choose. lol Thanks in advance.

    Wouldn’t that be too expensive for a full size keyboard? They sell 10 switches for $4+. Don’t I like need over 100 of them for my keyboard?

      Think of it as a sampler. You get a sample of 10 different switches, 5 of each kind of your choosing, and then return the sampler after 5 days. When you find the switch you like, you can buy a whole set for your keyboard.

        Right, but I was talking about the switches purchase, not the sampler. It could get very expensive.

          My wallet agrees with that description of this hobby.

          I’ve paid between $0.25/Switch and $1.50/Switch…

          Luckily I tend toward small splits with 42-54 switches.
