Description

Hi, this is FOD team,I'm Zef.

A while ago, we released the AM Icy Silver Switches Pro in conjunction with the Angry Miao team, which is now available on AM's platform.

Now, we are going to bring you the first drop of the brand -- FOD Lucky Linear Switches.

Inspiration：Chinese Red envelope

A red envelope or red packet (Chinese: 红包) is a monetary gift given during holidays or for special occasions such as a wedding, a graduation, or the birth of a baby.(Quote from wikipedia)

So, in Chinese culture, red envelopes are a way of expressing blessings and encouragement, representing wishes for good luck and wealth, which are exactly the values of our brand.

With this in mind, FOD Lucky Linear Switches was born.

Y3 Stem - The Legend Continues

The stem made of Y3 has a coefficient of friction of only 0.04, which is nearly 70% lower than conventional POM and LY materials. The Y3 material has already shown great results on the Ice Silver Pro, and FOD Lucky Linear Switches will continue to use it on the stem, with only an increase in smoothness.

Lubrication

With careful automated lubrication, we've minimized noise for a pure sound when typing.

Packaging

The design concept of packaging comes from the Chinese culture of jade seals, and they are also "input devices" in a sense throughout their long history.

The current packaging solution carries the switches well for transportation and is also perfect for storage.
