Bloody lk libra, new optical keyboard switches

Currently the absolute reference in switches for mechanical keyboards is the German company Cherry, many have tried to imitate him but until now no one has managed to match its quality and reliability. The competition has gotten tougher and more and more rivals are willing to take Cherry's throne. One of the most promising is the new Bloody LK Libra switcher with optical technology.

Bloody LK Libra will bring the keyboards of the future to life

Bloody LK Libra is a new mechanical switch that works with optical technology, which could be the new standard in mechanical keyboards in no time. These mechanisms use a light source that is integrated into the keyboard PCB itself, so the switch does not have any type of electrical component. These mechanisms include a kind of window that is responsible for letting light pass or preventing its passage, this is precisely what causes its activation.

These new Bloody LK Libra mechanisms are not the fastest on the market, but they do promise to be the most reliable and the reason for this is quite simple. In the case of traditional mechanical switches, there is an electrical contact point in the switch itself, this can degrade over time and prevent the passage of current, causing irreversible damage. With the use of optical technology this drawback is eliminated, thereby obtaining a much more reliable product, at least on paper.

ANSI vs ISO: difference between Spanish keyboards

An advantage of the Bloody LK Libra is that since they do not include any electronic components they are perfectly washable to keep them in a pristine state, of course, for this it is necessary that the switches can be removed from the keyboard or design a totally waterproof PCB.
