Bsun X WAVES RAIL BOTTOMOUT LINEAR Switches

The Bsun X Waves Rail Bottomout Linear keyboard switches are a remarkable addition to any keyboard enthusiast's collection. These switches are designed to provide a smooth and precise typing experience, making them an ideal choice for both gamers and typists. With their unique rail bottom-out design and high-quality materials, these switches offer a distinctive sound and feel that sets them apart from other options on the market.

Design and Build Quality

The Bsun X Waves switches are crafted using BSUN's most recent moldings, ensuring minimal stem wobble and guaranteed smoothness. The stem is made from Y3X material, similar to the Jade Rosales switches, while the top and bottom housings are constructed entirely from POM. This combination of materials results in a medium-pitched sound profile with a medium volume, offering a classic BSUN sound signature that is neither too loud nor too muted.

These linear switches are designed for full travel, providing a satisfying keystroke with each press. The operating force is 48g, with a bottom-out force of 55g, allowing for a comfortable typing experience. The pre-travel distance is 2.0mm, with a total travel distance of 4.0mm, ensuring precise and pleasant keystrokes.

Lubrication and Sound Profile

To prevent lube pooling issues, only the upper section of the stem sliders is lubed with 205g0, while the stem legs and lower section remain dry. This ensures that the lube spreads evenly over time, forming a thin coat that enhances the smoothness of the sliders. The springs are lubricated with a dry film, further contributing to the switch's performance. While the switches may produce slight noise due to dry stem legs and leaf contact, applying a thin coat of lube can help eliminate this.
