About this item
Swapping switches on a hot-swap board is much easier with a dedicated mechanical keyboard switch puller. This one is also sold as an anti-static IC chip extractor for lifting socketed chips. At $3.98 new, it's an easy add-on for keyboard hobbyists, electronics tinkerers and repair benches.
Can a keyboard switch puller also remove IC chips safely?
The listing presents it as both, with an anti-static design for chip work. Either way, gentle and even pressure on both sides is what matters most.
- Make sure your keyboard is hot-swappable. Soldered switches have to be desoldered first.
- Check the photos for the tip shape and size.
- Look for the quantity in the description, because the title doesn't say how many tools are included.
- Keep a keycap puller handy too, since the keycaps come off before the switches.
