Lichicx Wingtree X Taro Silent Tactile Switches

This silent tactile switch suits users who want clear tactile feedback without noise, making it ideal for office environments, shared spaces, or late-night typing. It offers a medium operating force that balances comfort and precision, appealing to those who find typical tactile switches too loud or silent linears lacking in feedback.

Feel & Sound

• Delivers an early tactile bump that is smooth and refined, providing noticeable feedback without harshness.
• Silicone dampening reduces bottom-out noise, resulting in a quiet, muted sound profile suitable for noise-sensitive settings.
• Soft bottom-out feel absorbs impact, minimizing finger fatigue during long typing sessions.

Actuation Characteristics

• Medium weight with 45g operating force and 53g bottom-out force supports comfortable, consistent key presses.
• Tactile bump occurs early in the 2.0mm pre-travel, allowing quick recognition of actuation.
• Total travel of about 3.8mm provides a standard key depth without excessive travel distance.

Build Quality

• Stem made from POM, a smooth, self-lubricating material that reduces friction and scratchiness.
• Top housing uses polycarbonate (PC) for clarity and durability; bottom housing is PA66 for structural stability.
• Equipped with a 22mm KOS single-stage extended spring for consistent force and feel.
• Factory lubed with GPL105 & GPL205 on key components, reducing stem wobble and leaf ping (spring noise) out of the box.

Use Cases & Trade-offs

• Well suited for office work, streaming, and shared environments where quiet operation and tactile feedback are priorities.
• Less ideal if you prefer linear switches or stronger tactile bumps, as the bump is moderate and early in travel.
• Factory lubrication reduces need for additional lubing, but some users may still prefer custom mods for personal preference.
