For a complete keyboard, count your actual switch positions; a 10-switch pack is not enough for most full builds.

Gateron Magnetic Jade Delta HE Switches — Mixed 10PCS (6 Dark + 4 Light) at a Glance
Linear
Switch Type
3.5 mm
Total Travel
Yes
Factory Lubed
What to Expect
Both variants are linear magnetic switches. Light uses 33±5gf operating force; Dark uses 38±5gf. The actual trigger point is configured by a compatible HE keyboard, and the individual switch does not guarantee a particular Rapid Trigger setting.
No independent controlled sound test for this exact switch and keyboard combination.

Check your PCB and preferred feel before choosing the 10-switch pack.
HE users who want to compare light vs medium-light force before a full board purchase
- Magnetic keyboard builders whose PCB specifications permit these N-pole-down switches
- Owners testing ten switches for critical key locations or a sample cluster
This is a MIXED pack: only six Dark and four Light; not ten identical switches
- Not suitable for mechanical-contact or optical-only keyboards
- HE polarity, flux and firmware calibration vary by keyboard; do not infer universal compatibility

Compatibility: Check Before You Buy
Hall Effect magnetic PCB accepting N-pole-down switches and compatible sensor characteristics. Requires host-keyboard validation; do not infer compatibility merely from physical fitting.
Verify the exact keyboard PCB and socket technology
For HE: verify magnet polarity and sensor/firmware compatibility
Do not force incompatible pins or assume cross-technology interchangeability
How many switches should you order?
Choose your keyboard layout to get a practical starting quantity. Then confirm the exact key count for your board and decide how many spare switches you want for testing or replacement.

FAQ
Is this a 10-piece pack of all Dark switches?
No. The selected supplier pack contains six Dark (38gf) and four Light (33gf) switches. Full Dark/Light 61- or 70-piece supplier packages are separate products.
Are these compatible with every magnetic keyboard?
No. Hall Effect sensing polarity, magnet response, physical fit and firmware calibration differ by keyboard. Verify N-pole-down compatibility with your exact model.
Can I install them in an ordinary mechanical keyboard?
No. These are magnetic Hall Effect switches and cannot replace conventional MX contact switches in a normal mechanical PCB.
What is the difference between Light and Dark?
Light is rated 33±5gf operating force; Dark is rated 38±5gf. Both have 3.5±0.1mm specified physical travel.
Does Rapid Trigger work automatically?
Only on compatible Hall Effect keyboards with the relevant firmware feature; it is not enabled by the switch alone.
