## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5113:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA5113:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

For crafting your very own custom keyboard, these Kailh Choc Low Profile Linear Red mechanical key switches are super slim, with ultra-low profile compared to MX compatible switches!

Please note these are **NOT MX COMPATIBLE**! They cannot be used in 'MX' sockets or PCBs or keycaps, the pin arrangement is totally different. That said, they are much lower profile, and quite lovely when you want a smooth linear keystroke without the chonk:

- Type Linear
- Operating force: 50 gf (+/-10 gf)
- Pretravel: 1.5 mm (+/- 0.3 mm)
- Total travel: 3.0 mm (+/- 0.3 mm)

Comes in a pack of 10 switches, plenty to make a small keyboard, or grab a few packs to build a full keyboard.

[They work great with CHOC mechanical key sockets if you want to avoid soldering.](https://core-electronics.com.au/switch-sockets-for-kailh-choc-compatible-keys-10-pack.html)
