Gaming Profile
Measures actuation, travel, and force. Shorter, lighter movement favors speed. Advanced input features add capability.
Everglide Yaoguang HE is a linear magnetic hall effect switch from Everglide released in 2025 with a 35 gf operating force, 3.2 mm total travel, a manufacturer rating of 150 million keystrokes, and support for adjustable actuation and Rapid Trigger on a compatible Hall-effect keyboard.
Three focused profiles from published switch specifications. No overall score is generated because feel and use case are personal.
Measures actuation, travel, and force. Shorter, lighter movement favors speed. Advanced input features add capability.
Measures bump or click intensity. It uses feel type and tactile-force rise. Higher scores mean stronger feedback.
Measures published lifespan evidence. It uses documented construction details. It does not predict real-world reliability.

Editor's Note: Keebforce lists 35±3 gf start force, 45±3 gf end force, 3.2±0.1 mm total travel, an approximately 20 mm spring, 480±60 Gs magnetic flux, and a 150-million-click rating. The published flux is a single switch value rather than separate top-out and bottom-out measurements, so the endpoint flux fields are left null.

The Everglide Yaoguang HE is a Magnetic Hall Effect switch from Everglide with a Linear feel, so its keypress character is primarily defined by that mechanism and feedback style.
The Everglide Yaoguang HE has an operating force of 35 gf. That is a light switch feel suited to users who prefer easy keypresses.
The Everglide Yaoguang HE has a total travel distance of 3.2 mm. Total travel describes the full stroke from rest to bottom-out.
Rapid Trigger is a compatible-keyboard firmware feature rather than a stand-alone switch feature. Published compatibility for the Everglide Yaoguang HE lists Rapid Trigger as yes and adjustable actuation as yes. A supported Hall-effect keyboard and its firmware are required.
The Everglide Yaoguang HE is listed as documented pin count, MX keycap compatibility is yes, and hot-swap compatibility is unknown. Always match the switch pins and keyboard PCB/socket before buying.
Yes. The Everglide Yaoguang HE is listed as factory lubed. Factory lubrication can affect out-of-box smoothness and sound, but its effect can vary with the keyboard build and keycaps.
Available sound-related specs for the Everglide Yaoguang HE include sound profile: Thocky, sound level: Moderate. Case, plate, keycaps, and desk mat can still change the final keyboard sound.
The Everglide Yaoguang HE is rated for 150 M cycles. Lifespan ratings are lab-cycle estimates, so real-world durability can also depend on build quality and usage.
The Everglide Yaoguang HE lists top housing: Polycarbonate (PC), stem: POM. These parts influence feel, sound, wobble, and long-term switch consistency.
Available magnetic specs for the Everglide Yaoguang HE include magnet polarity: North-Pole Compatible. These specs are mainly relevant for Hall Effect keyboards with compatible PCBs and firmware.
