Kailh Choc Opener

 

This is a little tool to help open Kailh Choc switches. There's just enough stretch on the tabs that they open but, should not be enough that they break. To use it, place the switch on the opener base then carefully lower the lid onto the top. Then, press lightly until the switch clicks open. Inside the lid there are inset areas that push the bottom of the switch housing onto the base and force the 4 small tabs under the switch top housing tabs to release them. I've made a single switch version and a 10 switch strip version that allows opening multiple switches faster. Due to the needed play in the lid, I don't think a lid with 10 sections would work but, you could use multiple lids. The base is spaced to allow for the lids to rest side-by-side by klackygears. Effortlessly open Kailh Choc switches with the Kailh Choc Opener. No more struggling or worrying about breaking your switches. Simply place the switch on the opener base and let the carefully designed lid do the work for you. With inset areas that push the bottom of the switch housing onto the base and force the 4 small tabs under the switch top housing tabs to release them, this tool makes it easy to open multiple switches in no time. Get your hands on the single switch version or the 10 switch strip version, perfect for opening multiple switches at once. Thanks to the thoughtful design, you can even use multiple lids for even faster results. Designed by klackygears, this tool is a must-have for any mechanical keyboard enthusiast.
