Cherry MX Brown Mechanical Switches
This Ducky One 2 TKL Horizon employs Cherry MX Brown switches. These are highly tactile and have a very precise activation point but no audible click.

Functions & Features of the Ducky One 2 TKL Horizon Gaming Keyboard
As in the case of the full-size Ducky One 2, the TKLvariant is equipped with a powerful ARM-M3 micro- controller which reliably controls and stores the functions of the keyboard. Additionally, it optimises the communication between keyboard and PC while simultaneously enabling other functions, including the use of macros and profile memory. In addition to multimedia functions, Ducky Macro V2.0 also allows you to control the mouse pointer from the keyboard.
Thanks to USB N-key rollover, any number of keys can be pressed simultaneously without causing "ghosting" or other delays. Here the 1,000 Hz report rate of the USB port is of great help, sending data from the keyboard to the PC every millisecond.
Design, Aesthetics & Materials
This Ducky keyboard utilises a dual-layer PCB to increase the service life of the keyboard while improving signal stability. The key caps are made of polybutylene terephthalate, or PBT for short, and are produced using the double-shot process meaning they are significantly more durable thankeys manufactured with ABS. In this process, plastic is poured around a shaped piece of metal or plastic so as to allow the two components to be joined together.
The Ducky One 2 TKL Horizon has three positions to allow for the most ergonomic positioning and customisation, depending on the needs of the user: folded in, small feet, and large feet. The removable USB Type C cable completes the keyboard.
