## Long description

Dark Project KS-48 RU — Keyboard Switch Tester / Keycap Puller Compatible with Mechanical Switches is a compact handheld tool designed for testing the tactile, linear and clicky characteristics of mechanical keyboard switches and for safely removing keycaps. The device allows quick on-the-spot comparison of switch travel, actuation feel and audible feedback while also functioning as a stable keycap puller for routine maintenance, switch swaps and custom keycap installation.
Advantages
The KS-48 RU combines a switch testing platform and a keycap puller in a single compact unit, enabling both tactile evaluation and keycap removal without the need for multiple tools. It supports the most common mechanical switch types, offers a sturdy construction for repeated use, and features a shape that helps protect switch stems and keycap edges during extraction. Its small footprint makes it easy to carry to meetups, workshops or repair sessions.

Key specifications

 Compatibility: designed for common mechanical switch types (tactile, linear, clicky)
 Materials: durable construction suitable for repeated use
 Weight and size: lightweight, pocketable for transport

How to use
Place the switch to be tested onto the dedicated slot or press the switch against the tester as instructed, then press several times to assess actuation force, travel and sound. For keycap removal, position the puller over the keycap, apply even upward pressure and remove the cap vertically to avoid damaging the stem. After testing or removal, re-seat keycaps by aligning them with the stem and pressing gently until they snap into place.
Usage recommendations
Use the tester on a stable surface and avoid excessive lateral force when removing keycaps to prevent stem damage. Keep the tool clean and free of debris; inspect before use if working with fragile or vintage switches. Store the KS-48 RU in a protective pouch during transport to preserve its edges and functionality.
