Overview

The HMX Sunset Gleam is a linear switch made by HMX, sometimes nicknamed the "Duck Duck" switch. It combines a polycarbonate top housing with a nylon bottom housing and an LY stem, and comes factory lubed.

Sellers and enthusiasts describe a clacky, resonant sound and a consistent linear feel, with the switch usable straight from the box without further modification.
