Honey Dew -Linear

From the Designer:
Off the back of GMK fenglisu (鳳梨酥), we bring you a switch with a new material developed by Tecsee with an XL TX Spring. I have named and themed these switches after the Honeydew.

HPE is a proprietary blend produced by Tecsee to improve on the structural rigidity of UHMWPE but maintain the characteristic features that make it a joy to type on (if you’ve tried Tecsee Jadeites, then you know what I’m talking about). For these Honeydews, HPE will be used on both the top and bottom housings.

I am by no means a switch connoisseur (and will leave judgement to our reviewers and content creators). Still, to my feel, HPE provides a softer or ‘less-aggressive’ typing experience than current PC/nylon offerings whilst still maintaining that clacky sound profile that so many of us seek.

Of the stem and spring configurations that I tried, I felt that the snappy feel of the 18mm XL TX Spring in combination with a POM stem further makes this switch much more fun and engaging than many current offerings. further makes this switch much more fun and engaging than many current offerings.
