This diagram locates published travel points on a common 0–4 mm axis. It is not a force–travel trace and does not reconstruct tactile peak, return force or bottom-out force.
Before-you-buy note
The bound manufacturer tester page publishes 3.2 mm maximum total travel. The broad tactile label and operating force do not preserve the full bump shape; verify the exact KS-33-compatible keyboard.
A useful personal conclusion requires the exact keyboard, plate or integrated structure, mounting, keycaps, modification state, sample count and procedure. Begin with a small sample; do not turn a matching number into a universal sound, comfort or compatibility claim.
