Even though keyboard switches are made to last longer than your average office keyboard, switch springs wear out over time, and you may notice a diminished typing experience. This guide demonstrates how to replace the switch springs in a KBD67 Lite R3 keyboard that is hot-swappable, although this process will be similar for most mechanical keyboards. The switches being used to demonstrate the replacement in this guide are the Glorious Pandas by Glorious Gaming.
