Razer Red Linear Optical Switches: Unrivalled Speed and Durability

Razer's Linear Optical Switch gives you a smooth, uninterrupted keystroke with no bump and no click, actuated by a beam of light. It is the fastest and quietest switch in the Huntsman range, and the one most gamers reach for.

  • Switching characteristic: smooth linear keystrokes, no tactile bump.
  • Actuation force: 45 g.
  • Actuation point: 1.2 mm.
  • Total travel: 3.5 mm.
  • Rated life: up to 100 million keypresses.

Instead of two pieces of metal touching, a beam of light passes through the switch housing. Pressing the key blocks the beam and the keypress registers instantly, with no debounce delay to wait out and no metal contacts to wear or corrode. That is how Razer reaches a 100 million keypress rating, twice the 50 million typical of a conventional mechanical switch.

Compatibility: these are replacement switches for Razer Huntsman keyboards built for Razer optical switches. They are not interchangeable with standard mechanical switches — please check your keyboard model before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

What do the Razer Red Linear Optical Switches For Razer Huntsman feel like?

Linear, so the keypress travels straight down with no bump and no click. It is the quietest of the three switch types and the usual choice for gaming, because there is nothing interrupting the stroke.

That makes the Razer Red Linear Optical Switches For Razer Huntsman a linear switch - if you have used a linear switch before and liked it, these will feel familiar.

They actuate at 45g, which counts as a medium-weight switch.

As a rough guide, under 45g is light and fast but easier to press by accident, 45-60g suits most people for both typing and gaming, and above 60g is deliberate and firm - popular with heavy-handed typists who want to avoid mistakes.

The key registers after 1.2mm and bottoms out at 3.5mm of total travel.

A shorter actuation distance means the keypress is picked up sooner, which is why speed switches shorten it for gaming. A longer one gives you more room to rest your fingers on the keys without triggering them.

These are optical switches.

These are optical switches and are not interchangeable with standard mechanical switches. They only fit Razer keyboards built for Razer optical switches - check your model before ordering.
