The black AULA HERO 75 HE ships with Stormrise magnetic switches; the orange and green editions ship with Spiritcloud. Both adjust from 0.1mm to 3.4mm in 0.005mm steps, and AULA publishes no force figures for either. All three colours carry Evetech's 2-year cover.
Picking a colour for the AULA HERO 75 HE is not just a style decision. The colour you choose also decides which magnetic switch comes fitted under the keycaps. AULA pairs the black edition with one switch and the orange and green editions with another, so it pays to know the pairing before you settle on a shade. Here is how Stormrise or Spiritcloud maps to each colour, and how much it should sway you.
The black AULA HERO 75 HE ships with Stormrise magnetic switches; the orange and green editions ship with Spiritcloud. Both adjust from 0.1mm to 3.4mm in 0.005mm steps, and AULA publishes no force figures for either. Every other specification is shared across the three colours, as is the R899 price at Evetech, and the board is hot-swappable if you want to change later. That makes the choice lower-stakes than it might seem.
The pairing is simple:
So orange and green share a switch, and black stands apart. If you have your heart set on a particular switch, that narrows the colour choice; if you care most about colour, the switch comes along for the ride.
Both are Hall Effect magnetic switches, and both get identical tuning options on the HERO. AULA gives an actuation range of 0.1mm to 3.4mm, set in 0.005mm increments, with Rapid Trigger and a dead zone that can be removed. Magnetic switch calibration and a real-time key travel view sit in the AULA HUB web driver for both.
What AULA does not publish is force: there are no actuation or bottom-out force figures for either Stormrise or Spiritcloud on these pages. That means nobody can tell you from the specification which one is lighter. Anyone claiming a precise difference is guessing.
Comparing the three product pages side by side, only the colour and the switch change. The rest is shared:
Because the HERO is hot-swappable and supports mixed switch setups, the fitted switch is not a lifetime commitment. A black board could take Spiritcloud switches, or an orange board Stormrise, provided you source them, and you could even mix the two across different keys. Recalibrate in the driver after any swap so each key reads correctly.
So let the colour lead unless you have a strong switch preference from trying both. The colour is permanent; the switch is not.
All three colours carry a 2 Years Local Warranty through Evetech. Compare them in the gaming keyboards category, or see what is popular in Evetech's keyboard best sellers.
Stormrise magnetic switches.
Yes. Both use Spiritcloud magnetic switches.
AULA publishes no force figures for either, so the specification cannot answer that.
No. Layout, polling, battery, build, keycaps, lighting and key modes are the same on all three.
Yes. The board is hot-swappable and supports mixed switch setups; recalibrate after swapping.
Usually by colour, since the switch can be changed later and the colour cannot.
