The Waverider V2 tactile switch is the successor to the classic KTT Waverider tactile switch that was released back in 2023.
The new Waverider V2 tactile switch is now manufactured by HMX using their super-popular tactile designs. They come with a P tactile bump and a slightly longer than usual 3.8mm travel distance. This design pays tribute to the V1, which also had a large P and close to D tactile bump and slightly longer travel.
Overall, the Waverider V2 switches are clacky, crisp, and clean to type on.

Factory Lubed
Yes! Stem legs and stem sliders are covered with a very thin coat of 205g0. The spring and leaf are lubed with dry film. Everything else is dry. There is no lube in the bottom housing or anywhere near the stem pole. The chance that these get lube pooling issue is very small.
