Support for Gateron KS-33 low profile switches

[KoljaL]

Hi Markus,
at the end of last year we had contact via email, but I can't find the conversation anymore.
So here is the official request to add a PCB version for the KS-33 switches:

https://www.gateron.co/products/gateron-low-profile-mechanical-switch-set

or / and for the hot swap adapter

https://www.gateron.co/products/gateron-hot-swap-pcb-socket

I ordered both and if you need a sample, I will send it to you.

Thanks a lot for all your work 🥰

Best regard
Kolja

Well, I'll happily make a design for a prototype for you, but the timeline is uncertain. There are a few project in the pipeline ahead of that.

A side note though. The hot swap sockets you link, are basically Gateron's clone of the normal Kaihl one for Cherry MX switches. Nothing special about them as far as I can find. And they certainly don't fit the pins on the KS-33 unless I'm totally wrong in reading the spec sheet.

Pins, as per the two spec sheets.

The socket you linked, on a Cherry MX switch.
