<p data-mce-fragment="1">Designed by LowproKB and manufactured by Kailh, the Ambients series of switches bring some much-desired improvements to chocs. The Nocturnal, Twilight are the first to bring truly silent, low actuation force linears, while Sunrise switches do the same for the tactile experience.</p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1">Based on the Kailh Choc v1 form-factor, these switches were engineered from the ground up to accommodate the components needed to quieten typical switch noise. Strategically placed silicone bumpers dampen the sounds made by both the down- and upstrokes. Stem, case and spring modifications to allow for a more consistent movement. Even the contact spring ramp's design was revisited. All this to accomplish a silent switch which feels smooth and crisp, without any mushiness.</p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1">Because of the Kailh Choc v1 form-factor, these switches are perfect alternatives for existing kits and keycaps which support Kailh v1 switches.</p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Coming later this year</strong>: the <strong>Sunrise</strong> switch, a 40gf tactile switch using the same silencing technology. Where the Sunset switches brought a breath of fresh air for tactile switches, the Sunrise will do the same, but silent.</p>

<h2 data-mce-fragment="1">Remarks</h2>
<ul data-mce-fragment="1">
<li data-mce-fragment="1">Kailh Low Profile switches are <strong data-mce-fragment="1">only</strong> compatible with keycaps that are made for them. They are <strong data-mce-fragment="1">not</strong> compatible with other keycaps, for example those for MX switches.</li>
<li data-mce-fragment="1">The Ambients Silent Kailh Low Profile switches have five pins: two metal switch pins, a center post and two side posts which are part of the bottom housing.<br>
</li>
<ul style="margin-top: 0;" data-mce-fragment="1" data-mce-style="margin-top: 0;">
<li data-mce-fragment="1">Side posts can be clipped using flush cutters if the keyboard doesn't support side posts. These days, most keyboards do support side posts.</li>
<li data-mce-fragment="1">Side posts give some extra stability and alignment to switches, which is useful when hot swapping switches and when using a keyboard without a case.</li>
