Ttc POM King HE Linear Switches

The TTC POM King Magnetic HE is a linear switch designed for users who want a smooth, consistent keypress with adjustable actuation via magnetic sensing. It suits enthusiasts with compatible magnetic or Hall Effect PCBs seeking a low-bounce typing experience. This switch is not compatible with standard mechanical keyboards, limiting its use to specialized setups.

Feel & Sound

• Linear feel provides a smooth, uninterrupted keystroke without tactile bumps.
• Magnetic sensing reduces bounce and chatter, resulting in a cleaner input signal.
• Sound profile is quieter and less clicky than traditional mechanical switches due to the lack of physical contact actuation.

Actuation Characteristics

• Actuation point is adjustable based on travel distance, not fixed location, allowing customization of responsiveness.
• Light initial force of 35g supports faster keypresses with less finger fatigue.
• Total travel of 3.4mm offers a typical mechanical switch depth with a smooth bottom-out feel enhanced by magnetic force.

Build Quality

• Fully made from POM (polyoxymethylene), a durable plastic that reduces friction for smoother stem movement.
• 21mm spring length contributes to consistent force and return.
• Light diffuser window helps distribute backlighting evenly if supported by the keyboard.

Compatibility

• Requires specialized PCBs compatible with magnetic or Hall Effect sensing, not compatible with standard mechanical keyboards.
• Plate mount design fits standard mounting plates but depends on PCB compatibility for actuation.
• May not work with all magnetic or Hall Effect keyboards due to manufacturing variations.

Trade-offs

• Limited compatibility restricts use to specific keyboard builds.
• Unknown factory lubrication quality, which may affect smoothness or require user modification.
• Adjustable actuation distance requires compatible firmware or hardware support, adding complexity.
