GATERON KS-22 Optical Switch Features

GATERON Optical Switch Set uses infrared optical sensing to trigger key commands with precision. The larger stem diameter offers smoother keystrokes and enhanced stability. With a lifespan of up to 100 million keystrokes, these switches are designed for durability. The KS-22 features an enlarged light-transmitting opening for more accurate light-emitting and receiving, and all switches (except blue) are pre-lubed for smoother operation.

Optical switch principle: The infrared optical sensing component uses light-sensing technology to detect changes in light transmission. As the stem moves, it either blocks or allows infrared light to pass through, creating two distinct states that trigger the corresponding key signal command.

Advantages of KS-22:
1. The Larger the diameter of the stem, the smoother the typing feels.
2. Lie time is longer and can be up to 100 million life circles.
3. The blue switch sounds clearer and more melodious.
4. Enlarged light-transmitting opening in KS-22 Optical Switch, light-emitting and light-receiving installation position accuracy is slightly flexible.

KS-15

The difference between KS-15 and KS-22:
1. Except for the blue switch, all other KS-22 switches are pre-lubed in the factory.
2. The KS-22 switch stem and positioning pole in the bottom housing diameter are larger than those of the KS-15, and the KS-22 stem is more stable.

Tip! Gateron Optical Switches are not compatible with regular mechanical keyboards. Gateron KS-22 is not to be used to replace the KS-15 optical switch; please choose the available one carefully before ordering it.
