Gateron Cap - Milky V2

Gateron CAP V2 switches utilize a new mold, and they have significantly less stem wobble compared to V1. Also, Cap V2 switches are slightly factory lubed. These will not come in the small PC cases like the V1s did! 
"Main difference in Milkys' and CAP v2 switches would be the sound. CAP switches tend to give off a more THOCKY sound than the regular switches, which are more CLACKY. Also, since it is factory-lubed, the scratchiness of stock browns are gone."
- Konata
These switches are factory-lubed, and its lube is on the oilier side, so if you are going to lube, please wipe a bit off before lubing. Or else.... that's going to be one wet switch....
