Ok so I love blue switches a ton and was just wondering if the greens are like the blues but heavier? Also how much heavier are greens than blacks?

weight goes like this

 

Heaviest first

 

White

Green

Clear

Black

Brown

Blue

Red

 

So, ducky makes a clear. and CM storm makes a green. Almost no one makes white keyboards though.

This would be based on the springs they have inside and the tactility of the stem.

I would say think of greens as a clicky black
