Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are hot swap sockets for mechanical keyboards?
A: Hot swap sockets are small metal components soldered onto a keyboard PCB that allow you to insert and remove mechanical switches without soldering. This makes it easy to swap out switches for different feels or to replace faulty ones, saving time and effort during keyboard customization or repair.
Q: Are these hot swap sockets compatible with all mechanical keyboard PCBs?
A: These pin sockets are designed to fit most standard mechanical keyboard PCB footprints. However, we recommend verifying your PCB's switch footprint dimensions before purchasing to ensure compatibility with your specific board.
Q: How many sockets do I need for a full keyboard build?
A: A standard full-size keyboard (100%) typically requires around 104 sockets, while a tenkeyless (TKL) layout needs approximately 87. This 100-piece set is ideal for 60%, 65%, or 75% keyboard layouts, and also great to have on hand for repairs and replacements.
