Yes: the AULA HERO 84 HE's Black King and Black Emperor names refer to one pre-lubed magnetic switch. It actuates at 33gf, bottoms out at 53gf and travels 3.4mm, with actuation adjustable from 0.1mm. Evetech lists the board with a 2-year warranty.
Read two listings for the HERO 84 HE and one may call its switches Black King while another says Black Emperor. That naturally raises a worry that two batches exist with different feel, or that one listing is simply wrong. The good news is simpler: this is a Black King magnetic switch with a second name, and AULA uses both for the same part.
Yes, they are the same switch. On the AULA HERO 84 HE, Black King and Black Emperor are two names for one pre-lubed magnetic switch. It needs 33gf to actuate, reaches 53gf at the bottom and travels 3.4mm, and the board lets you set its actuation point anywhere from 0.1mm down that stroke. The HERO 84 HE itself is priced at R719 at Evetech.
Switch makers and keyboard brands often translate or rebrand a part for different markets, and one design can collect two names that way. The product page for the HERO 84 HE settles it in plain terms: the switch is Black King, and AULA also calls it Black Emperor. Nothing on the page suggests a second version with different figures.
So if you see either name on a box, a review or a spec table, read it as the same component. The practical effect is mostly on searching, which we come back to below.
Three numbers describe this switch, each with a small tolerance AULA publishes:
Because it is a Hall Effect design, the press is read by a sensor measuring the magnet's position rather than by metal contacts touching. That is why the actuation point is adjustable at all. On this board it moves in steps of 0.01mm between 0.1mm and 3.4mm, and with Rapid Trigger on, a key lets go as soon as your finger begins lifting.
Factory lubrication reduces the scratch of the stem sliding in its housing and softens the sound. It also means you do not have to open switches and lube them yourself to get a smooth stroke, which suits anyone who wants a finished board. The HERO 84 HE adds five layers of dampening inside the case, so the lubed switches are only part of the sound story.
Because the board is hot-swappable, you may one day want to replace a switch or try a different one. Search with both names, since sellers are not consistent about which they list. Then check the part is a magnetic switch built for this kind of board.
AULA's partner store makes a point worth repeating: not every magnetic switch fits every magnetic keyboard. Stay within a compatible magnetic switch family, and treat any listing that does not state compatibility with caution. Evetech's keyboard switches category is a sensible place to compare options, but read each listing's compatibility note before assuming a fit.
The board does support mixed switch setups, so a few keys can carry a different switch while the rest keep their Black Kings. After any change, revisit the actuation settings in the web driver, since a new switch may call for a different point.
The HERO 84 HE itself is part of Evetech's gaming keyboards range, covered by a 2 Years Local Warranty. Its price is listed on the Evetech product page.
No. It is the same switch as Black King, with the same 33gf actuation and 53gf bottom-out figures.
It is a light press. Pair it with a slightly deeper actuation point in the driver if you find keys triggering when your fingers rest on them.
No. They come pre-lubed from the factory, so they are smooth out of the box.
Yes, mixing is supported. Check that the replacement belongs to a compatible magnetic family before you pull anything.
No. Whichever name a listing uses, the board still tunes the switch between 0.1mm and 3.4mm, one hundredth of a millimetre at a time.
