lowprokb Choc (V1) Ambients Nocturnal
Description
NEW! Ambients Silent Linear switches from lowprokb. The Nocturnal switch is a silent version of the Kailh Pro Pink Choc switch. The switch was born from a design by LowproKB - a company that specialises in anything and everything low profile and Choc - and manufactured by Kailh, the leading company in Choc switches.
The Ambients series are based on the original Kailh Choc V1 switch, but are a completely new design, having all their parts redesigned to accommodate the new components required to quieten the typical switch noise. Silicone bumpers have been strategically placed within the new design to buffer both the down and the up stroke of a keypress, all while not creating a mushy feeling while typing.

I can’t use any other choc switches after using these. They are so smooth and silent.
I've recently finished my dactyl build with these switches and I'm loving them. I didn't hate the amount of noise that the standard non silent chocs make, but this is just even better. They are actually more silent than I expected.
Another note is that if you bottom out when you type, these are noticeably softer feeling than normal chocs, which is another benefit if it applies to you.
I was recently typing at a conference, taking notes with my Corne wireless and I was getting a few looks as I was clacking away! I decided it was time to go silent. I had pinks before and knew I wanted I the light weight feel. The Ambients Nocturnal fitted the bill! They feel nice and smooth and effectively remove the sound from the upstroke, downstroke and key chatter if you just brush the top of the keycaps. The key action is softer as there is some cushioning at the bottom of the downstroke.
Very happy! Would definitely buy again.
I really love to buy in this shop. Recommended 100%!
The Nocturals are amazing
