    • Check that your switches are hot-swappable. If they are not, trying to remove them will damage your keyboard.

    • The mechanical switches are NOT hot-swappable, and the colored stem is smaller and more oblong.

    • The optical switches are hot-swappable, and they have a larger colored stem which is mostly square.
