Since that I find the new switch of Dai-Ichi switch, it's the yellow with MX clone.
The agent company told me this switch made a few years. The agent said Dai-Ichi is the brand name of unknown Taiwan company.(their boss don't let me know the company name)
The white variants of CL-1145 is not on stock, and the green should asked them again.
The yellow can order with 200pieces or above.

I can buy 150pieces only. So, If someone want some, I can help to order more(at least 50pieces to waiting for). I have the green one with keyboard. Can sell some pieces if Dai-Ichi not on stock.
I have lots of new other rare switch and Chinese made Alps clone and Cherry MX clone switch. You can offer together.
Paypal only.(not including the postage)

Dai-Ichi Cherry MX clone
Green Dai-Ichi CL-1145

Are these clicky, tactile or linear?

Anyway I'd probably be interested in at least 80

Seventy cents for a knock-off switch, really? I'd get some Zealios at that price any time.

I'm expecting some ProWorld-like knockoffs, since the LED cutout is missing, so I'm hoping that there's gonna be info on whether or not these are going to be tactile/clicky

I will take at least 30 of those Dai-Ichi switches. It's one of the three types in my rogues gallery. The other two are CL-1145 White (I still want some of those) and what I thought was a cheap Futaba clone but is actually a genuine Omron switch that I may obtain from Ail as the price I was given on AliExpress was stupid.

I'll have one or two CL-1145 Green if they are NOS. I don't need used ones as I have those already.

You need to post photos and prices of them all so that we can see what you have, and whether they are used or NOS.

For example, I want one of these off you:



I think this is the Cherry MX mount version of [wiki]Datanetics DC-60 series[/wiki].

While reading around on Wikipedia, I came across a photo of Sheung Shui Station, and I spotted something very curious in the background, only just visible. Having rummaged around for photos of Hong Kong (and it looks nothing like I imagined) I could see that I was correct: by virtue of its origin as the KCR British Section, the East Rail Line uses a specific design of OHLE (railway catenary: the overhead lines that supply power to trains) that I that I thought was unique to Britain. The Sheung Shui Station photo shows a unusual headspan/anchor span arrangement, but parts of the line really are just bog standard British headspan. Headspan (wires strung between the masts to support the overhead lines) is pretty rare in itself, but Germany, Austria and Switzerland use it in stations for some reason; their version is far simpler than the design we use here. It's used extensively in Britain but I think it's considered obsolete, maybe due the pain of registering it.

Your tremendously, excruciatingly boring fact for the day. Or a lifetime, I fear.
