A strong fit if you want
- Hall Effect keyboard owners comparing a lighter 40g or firmer 50g physical keypress.
- Gamers who want an established magnetic-switch option with broad specialist-retailer documentation.
- Builders who want factory-lubed linear HE switches and are willing to confirm board compatibility first.
Trade-offs and compatibility checks
- Requires a Hall Effect PCB and will not work in a standard MX-contact mechanical keyboard.
- Mount and footprint terminology differs across retailers, so exact keyboard compatibility still needs verification.
- KeebPilot is listing this product out of stock while restock supply and final pricing are reviewed.

TYPING FEEL & SOUND
Choose 40g for lighter presses or 50g for more resistance
The Ti HE is sold in two physical force variants. The 40g option is the lighter choice, while the 50g option adds more resistance through the keypress. Because Hall Effect keyboards can set actuation electronically, the force choice mainly changes how heavy the switch feels under your fingers rather than fixing one actuation point.
Retailers consistently describe both versions as linear and factory lubricated. That should support a smooth, uninterrupted press, but final sound and feel still depend heavily on the keyboard case, plate, keycaps, damping, and firmware tuning. KeebPilot does not treat one force as universally better for gaming or typing.
- 40g is the lighter physical force option for rapid repeated keypresses.
- 50g gives a firmer press without changing the switch’s linear HE design.
- Actuation behavior is configured by the compatible Hall Effect keyboard, not by a fixed contact point.
Bottom line: Pick 40g for lower effort; choose 50g when you want a firmer physical keypress and noticeably more resistance.

CONSTRUCTION & SPECS
A short-travel HE design with a wide magnetic flux range
The Ti HE specifies 3.4 ± 0.2 mm total travel, 120 ± 20 Gs initial magnetic flux, and 750 ± 50 Gs bottom-out magnetic flux. Construction uses a PC top housing, a PA closed-bottom housing, a POM stem, and a 15 mm non-magnetic spring.
The short 3.4 mm travel keeps actuation and reset quick, which suits fast-paced gaming on Hall Effect boards that support adjustable actuation and rapid trigger.
- Total travel is 3.4 ± 0.2 mm for quick actuation and reset.
- Magnetic flux is consistently reported around 120 Gs initially and 750 Gs at bottom-out.
- PC top housing, PA closed-bottom housing and a POM stem keep the switch light.
What it means: Short 3.4 mm travel, a wide magnetic flux range, a PC top housing and a PA closed-bottom housing with a POM stem.

BUILD FIT & QUANTITY
Confirm your Hall Effect PCB before choosing a pack size
The Ti HE requires a keyboard PCB designed for magnetic Hall Effect switches. It is not a drop-in replacement for a standard MX-contact mechanical PCB. Mount terminology can differ between HE boards, so the exact board and sensor implementation still matters.
The listed pack options are 10 switches and 70 switches. This product is currently unavailable. Ten switches are practical for testing or replacing a small number of switches, while 70 switches suit many 60% and 65% builds. For larger layouts, count the sockets on your keyboard and leave a few spares instead of assuming one pack fits every board.
- Hall Effect compatibility is mandatory; standard MX-contact PCBs are not supported.
- Match the Ti HE to your specific Hall Effect keyboard and firmware support; magnetic switch compatibility depends on the board’s sensor and PCB implementation.
- Pack size should follow the keyboard’s actual socket count, not only the advertised layout percentage.
Build note: Check the exact HE keyboard compatibility first, then choose pack quantity based on your real socket count plus spares.

COMPARE ALTERNATIVES
Compare HE switches by compatibility, force and travel before brand
The Ti HE sits in a crowded magnetic-switch market where several models can look interchangeable at a glance. A useful comparison starts with PCB compatibility, force, total travel, housing construction, lubrication, and the magnetic range supported by the target board. Those factors matter more than simply choosing the most familiar brand name.
The Ti HE’s strongest shopping case is its established retail presence and simple 40g or 50g choice. It is already listed by specialist keyboard stores in multiple regions. That makes it easy to benchmark against other Hall Effect switches, but it does not guarantee universal fit or identical behavior across different HE keyboards.
- 40g and 50g create a clear force choice without changing the overall linear HE product identity.
- Multiple specialist retailers carry or have carried the switch, providing strong market validation.
- Universal HE compatibility should never be assumed because sensor and PCB implementations can differ.
Decision note: Use the Ti HE as a well-documented HE option, but verify board fit and preferred force before treating it as interchangeable.
