Been looking at getting one of those 12 key Mechanical Keyboard tester Kits as id love to try out the feel of all the different mechanical keys to determine which one is best for me.
They come with 12 varying Cherry MX switches but does anyone know if you can change them out for Gateron switches?..as id also like to try those.

Do Cherry MX & Gateron switches use the same connection/feet etc to clip into the tester?

i did ask the seller, He said you can but i don't know if he's just pulling a fast one to get a sale.

appreciate any feedback if anyone has one of those testers :)

cheers!
 
Only seeing this post now, so sorry for the late reply!

I got an 8 key tester years ago, and a 64 key tester there last year, and all the keys are removable. They're literally just loosely press fitted into a Perspex panel. I will say that even the 64 key unit became quickly outdated with the amount of new keys that have come on the market since!
