Parts & Modularity

C.O.M.B.O. Buttons (CBs) are composed of four main parts: the Ring, the Plunger, the Optimizer, and the Well.

Each part of the CB is modular with other CBs and C.O.M.B.O. Extensions.

  • Ring
    • This locks onto the top of the C.O.M.B.O. Button and keeps all of the parts together.
  • Plunger
    • Composed of two parts: the Plunger and the Cap.
    • The Plunger allows for different actuation points, which we call speeds: Classic (1.0mm), Super (0.5mm), and Ultra (0.3mm).
    • The Cap can disconnect from the Plunger. This allows any C.O.M.B.O. Button to install a clear Cap to showcase custom art. Similarly, swapping the default Cap with Caps of other colors will completely change the button's look.
  • Optimizer
    • The Optimizer (OP) silences and shortens the total travel distance of your buttons press.
    • The are three OP options: Classic (1.5mm), Super (1.0mm), and Ultra (0.65mm).
  • Well
    • The Well holds the other parts within it.
    • The Cherry MX Low Profile Speed Silver is installed onto the bottom of the Well.
