Pros & Cons
Pros
Royal kludge rk61 are the best budget linear switch on the market. They fit and work great. These were a great drop in replacement for the cheap red switches.
This switch is very smooth, even without lube. The click is so satisfying and the slightly increased force for actuation just makes it for me. Great muted sound.
Cons
That cause the keyboard a short circuit and broken.
Highlights
Quality

I thought it was worth exploring the switch's potential, so i tried lubing, filming, and o rings.
Shipping
Shipping speed was fast (a little under two weeks) and the value is great.
Unlike most keyboard parts not prime the shipping was decent.
Received the switches about 3 weeks after ordering, shipping to florida took 14 days.
Packaging/appearance
I used one of the switches in the pack to swap out a faulty switch on my keyboard.
Competitiveness
They are a bargain for gateron yellow switches considering how much they cost else where on some other websites.
Gateron greens are by and far my favorite gateron switch.
They don't sound nearly as good to hand lubed switches in my opinion.
Filming only made it more 'clicky', so that didn't give me what i was after.

Not being a fan of tactile switches i tried a gateron blue from a sample pack for the heck of it and was surprised at the interesting sound it made although it was louder and grittier than i wanted

I went ahead and ordered a set and realized that results varied after lubing

I ended up not using o rings because it made them more quiet than i wanted close to being silent switches

On the down side there seems to be a bit of wobble thats noticeable in some of the wider keycaps

Worth noting but not a showstopper for me

Also after lubing i noticed that a couple of the switches were unreliable sometimes needing more than one press to respond

Im not sure if its something that i caused by opening them up or if the problem was already there
