WALLHACK switch comparison: KS-TR Light vs Medium vs HeavyUpdated 13 days ago

The WALLHACK KS-TR series of Hall Effect switches is available in 3 variations, so you can choose the typing and gaming experience that best matches your preference. All 3 switches share the same 3.2 ± 0.1 mm total travel and are fully compatible with the WALLHACK K-001’s adjustable Actuation Point and Rapid Trigger features. They differ in spring weight and overall feel.

KS-TR Light:

Initial force: 28 ± 5 gf

Bottom force: 38 ± 10 gf

The KS-TR Light is our lightest switch. It needs the least amount of force to actuate and bottom out. It gives a highly responsive, effortless key press that is well suited to users who prefer minimal resistance and fast key presses during gaming and typing. It is a great match for Continuous Rapid Trigger, where quick key presses can make a big difference.

KS-TR Medium:

Initial force: 48 ± 5 gf

Bottom force: 63 ± 10 gf

The KS-TR Medium offers a balanced experience between speed and control. With a moderate spring weight, it provides more resistance than the Light version, while remaining comfortable for long gaming sessions and everyday typing. It is an excellent all round choice for users who want versatility without leaning too far in either direction. This is the switch that is installed by default in the WALLHACK K-001 Hall Effect keyboard.

KS-TR Heavy:

Initial force: 60 ± 5 gf

Bottom force: 75 ± 10 gf

The KS-TR Heavy is designed for users who prefer a firmer, more deliberate key press. The heavier spring gives more resistance across the whole key travel, which helps reduce accidental presses and provides a more substantial typing feel. It is a great choice for users who want more Rapid Trigger granularity, or for those who use advanced Rapid Trigger features and have built up muscle memory with actuation distances.

No matter which option you choose, every KS-TR switch is designed specifically for the WALLHACK K-001. Each switch offers the same Hall Effect precision, backlighting support, smooth operation, and support for advanced features such as adjustable Actuation Point and Rapid Trigger.
