Shadow Hunting Switch Customized Low Profile Switches for Cosmoxgaming All-Button Leverless Controller & Mechanical Keyboard (20 PCS) (Shodow Hunting Switch)

Using these in a Haute42 c6 leverless. I found there to be a noticeable difference in performance, I was able to hit a ton of 1-frame links in fighting games.

These do exactly what they're for. They fit perfectly in my Haute U16 and were exceedingly easy to install, literally plug and play. Haute leverless controllers typically come with either Crystal or Red Kailh V2 Low Profile switches. Compared to those the Shadow Hunting's are much quieter and clickier. They're much more sensitive than Crystal or Red, making one frame inputs for games like Tekken much easier. However if you love RGB and for some reason absolutely need tons of it these aren't for you. They severely limit the amount of lighting shown through the controller, giving it more of a subtle feel. The only negative I have to say is the switches are very fragile due to the fact that they connect to the board with two small prongs on their back. Those prongs are VERY easy to bend, when I received my product 3 of the switches' prongs were bent. The switches are packaged in a plastic container that kinda looks like an ice tray and some thin cardboard; obviously not the sturdiest material. Other than that, five stars.

Here’s the honest psychological and mechanical reality of how they feel in practice… They feel fast and precise, almost like the button activates the instant you think about pressing it. That short travel distance reduces finger fatigue during long sessions, and rapid inputs like double taps, wavedashes, or charge buffering feel cleaner and more controlled. The switches return quickly, so you don’t get that sluggish “mushy reset” feeling that slower switches have. This creates a sense of mechanical confidence—your inputs feel intentional instead of approximate. But they also feel slightly clinical. Linear switches like these lack tactile feedback, so there’s no bump telling your brain “you actuated.” Your nervous system compensates by learning the activation distance subconsciously. After adaptation, this becomes an advantage for speed, but initially it can feel almost too sensitive.

Bought for Huate42 leverless and they feel great. Much smoother feel compared to the reds that come with the board in my opinion and they are more sensitive but not to an annoying level.

These are a huge improvement over the wind engine switch (which itself is a great switch). The short travel feels much more responsive over the stock switches on haute42 controllers. If you like RGB, these aren't as bright or but you still get more than the wind engines. Overall, its a great upgrade to any haute42 controller, or any other controller that takes low profile switches.

Some boards and people may find these switches better but for the C16 i find the wind engines to sound and feel much better and i prefer the longer stem.

Description said fits all models except the high axis G-series, B16, and Mini controller. I have the modular Cosmox x hautepad and they don't fit. Good to know. Edit: Changed to 5 stars. They fit in the LP Suit module but not the MX Suit

These switches have a shorter stem than the stock crystal switches, and wind tunnel. You can actually do slide inputs with the tips of your fingers with these on an R16. Other than that, they feel about the same. Because they have about the same actuation force you won't mistakenly press these any more than you would the stock. These upgraded my overall experience with the r16, and I honestly wouldn't recommend any other if you favor functionality.
