Switch Testers

Switch Tester Plates

This is what I recommend for beginners as it's the cheaper option.

The unit is a single 6mm thick acrylic plate, with a smooth frosted finish on both sides. Switches are pushed in and held with friction force. They can be pushed out from below, or wiggled out from above.

Choose your switches at the bottom, as many or as few as you would like. Blank DSA keycaps are available at 50c each.

The total price of a 12 slot 3x4 unit will be in the area of $30-40 depending. Delivery can be done via auspost letter at $2.50 - $3.50.

Advanced Switch Testers

These are solid fully enclosed units that hold switches in securely via a dedicated switch plate. They will simulate a keyboard better than the switch plate option, but keep in mind nothing will be the same as trying out a full keyboard with a particular switch.

I have some old stock still available, some unlisted so get in contact if you are looking for a particular size. New ones are being designed.

These units cannot be flat packed and will need to be sent via courier/parcel, which starts at $10.
