Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the Kailh Box White V2, Brown V2, and Red V2 switches?

A: The Box White V2 is a clicky switch offering an audible click and tactile bump with each keystroke — ideal for typists who love feedback. The Box Brown V2 is a tactile switch that provides a subtle bump without the loud click, balancing feedback and quieter operation. The Box Red V2 is a linear switch delivering smooth, consistent keypresses with no bump or click, making it a favorite among gamers who prioritize speed.

Q: Are Kailh Box V2 switches compatible with my keyboard?

A: Kailh Box V2 switches use a standard 5-pin (PCB mount) Cherry MX footprint, which is compatible with the vast majority of custom and enthusiast mechanical keyboards. If your keyboard has a 3-pin layout, you can easily clip the two plastic alignment pins to make them compatible. They also support standard Cherry MX-style keycaps.

Q: How many switches do I need for a full keyboard build?

A: The number of switches needed depends on your keyboard layout. A full-size (100%) keyboard typically requires around 104 switches, a TKL (80%) needs about 87, a 65% needs around 68, and a 60% layout requires approximately 61 switches. We recommend ordering a few extra for spares.

Q: Are these switches hot-swap compatible?

A: Kailh Box V2 switches are designed to be used with hot-swap sockets (such as Kailh or Millmax sockets) or soldered directly onto a PCB. If your keyboard features a hot-swap PCB, these switches can be swapped in and out without soldering.
