Cherry MX2A New Nixie Switch - stock (10 per pack)

At the Thocc Exchange we are on a mission to make both new innovations, and our classics, available at affordable pricing. This is the latest MX2A Cherry "New Nixie" switch featuring the MX2A lubing technology on the spring and stem. This switch sounds plenty good enough to be used stock and feels great. I can't find much of a difference between these and a hand lubed MX1A.

Via Cherry:

This MX Black Clear-Top is the pre-lubed version. This makes the switch suitable for retro fans, frequent typists, gamers and users who value linear switching characteristics as well as good acoustics.
