HMX Saru V2 Switches are back! The V1 first released in 2022 as a tactile switch with minimal pre- or post-bump travel. But with recent improvements in this space, we decided to bring back Saru's with HMX. The result is a medium-light, full tactile switch out of the box. After a break-in period, the lube gets more evenly distributed and starts to stand out as a light, full tactile. The combination of a light tactile bump and full tactility creates a unique typing feel that almost feels like a linear.

Saru V2 is a full tactile switch with the bump immediately starting at the very top of the switch and no pre- and post-bump travel.

What Changed in V2

This new version has been changed to HMX. Lube application has been reworked with a more targeted approach across the stem, housing, and spring. Combined with a 2 degree reduction in stem leg angle, both changes work together to virtually eliminate ping and bring tactility down by approximately 2 to 3g for a lighter bump.

The result is significantly more consistent switches in both sound and feel. This lube technique has since been adopted by HMX as their new standard for factory lubrication.
