Editing Hi-Tek and Stackpole recognition (section)

==Colour==
According to former Hi-Tek employees, Hi-Tek sliders were considered to be always colourless.<ref name="C-DH-SK" /> However, black sliders are confirmed to exist, both separately<ref name="DT-history" /> and sharing a keyboard with colourless sliders.<ref name="DT-vs" /> In later keyboards, however, the sliders do appear to be typically colourless.

Many of these types of keyboards use yellow or green sliders, and where these are not marked with a switch manufacturer, it seems fair to assume Stackpole as the manufacturer. Indeed, all such examples also have physical characteristics identifiable with confirmed Stackpole keyboards.

'''Stackpole:'''

'''Hi-Tek:'''
