QK65 V2 w/ Ghost Dragon Switches | Sound Test | Pom, Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, & FR4 Plates

Today we’re gonna do a quick dive with the Ghost Dragon switches! Time stamps for each sound test will be down below.
These switches are a collaboration between Captain Sterling and Swagkeys and man are they incredible switches. First I’ll put the switch specs down below and then I’ll go through a quick list of what I like & dislike about the switch.
Ghost Dragons:
-POK Top Housing
-Nylon Bottom Housing
-13.9mm Long Pole POM Stem
-62g Double-Stage Spring
-Factory Lubed
-Linear Switch
Pros:
1) Factory lubing was excellent in my batch. I saw no need to open the switches up and reapply anymore lube to them.
2) There was no noticeable spring ping or leaf crunch to be heard while typing.
3) The switch is extremely smooth and feels really good to type on. Especially if you like a heavier spring weight.
4) Switch housings are nice and tight. Meaning you wouldn’t need any films.
5) Due to the box stem there is almost zero stem wobble and even on an uneven key press it still feels very solid.
Cons:
1) The only one I have and it’s a minimum con at best is that in my batch of switches the legs on the bottom housing seem to have some kind of molding issue which left some material still on them making it much harder to seat them into the pcb the first time.

FR4 Typing Test - 1:55
Now my personal favorite plate for this would definitely be the Pom followed by the Carbon Fiber. I think these switches would really shine on a polycarbonate plate or a polypropylene plate. They’d give you that insane poppy clackity goodness. Personally I would definitely recommend you try these switches especially if you like a brighter sound signature!
Price point wise these switches are sold in packs of 36 over at LoobedSwitches for $16.20 and can be found here via this link loobedswitches.com/products/s...
They are also available over at Swagkeys for $3.80 in packs of 10 but are currently sold out. You can find them via this link swagkeys.com/products/sw-x-ca...

Not really a fan of sub legends on the alphas as it confuses me. I find my eyes wandering a bit lol but those keycaps not gonna lie look cool.

[@RandomKeebs]

I’m a sucker for Japanese sub legends haha

[@krisrobitzsch]

I love sub legends. Such a nice touch, especially when they’re triple shot.

[@SaleemAbounaag2006]

Sounds great! How full does it sound on aluminum?

[@RandomKeebs]

It’s a tad bit more poppy! Especially the spacebar.

[@SaleemAbounaag2006]

@@RandomKeebs Interesting! Does it sound muted at all? How does it compare to HMX?

[@RandomKeebs]

@@SaleemAbounaag2006 I personally would say I enjoy these a tad more then recent HMX switches. Kinda burnt on them atm haha.
