Why wired is not a downgrade

Wireless is convenient, but it adds a battery that ages, a dongle that gets lost and a pairing step every time you switch machines. A wired board is plugged in and working. For anyone who games at one desk on one PC, the only thing wireless buys is a tidier cable run. The Broadsword leans into that: no radio, no battery, and the money goes into the switches and the backlight instead. If you move between a laptop and a desktop daily, look at the tri-mode boards in this range instead.

Outemu Reds and the tenkeyless trade

Outemu Red switches are linear and light. They actuate smoothly with no bump, which suits repeated presses in games and makes them quieter than blues without being silent. Typists who want to feel a key register should look at a tactile board. Dropping the numpad shifts your mouse hand roughly ten centimetres closer to your body, which genuinely helps at low mouse sensitivity. The cost is that data entry becomes a chore, so this is a poor second keyboard for accounting work.

FEATURES:

  • Outemu Red linear switches for light, consistent actuation
  • Tenkeyless footprint frees desk space for low-sensitivity mouse play
  • 18 RGB backlighting modes adjustable from the board
  • Wired USB connection with no battery to charge or replace
  • Full-size key spacing retained despite the compact footprint

Why Redragon?

Redragon's wired mechanical boards have been the default recommendation for South African first builds for years, because they use real mechanical switches at prices where competitors still ship membrane. Every Redragon keyboard we stock is covered by a local 18-month warranty.

Questions

Before you buy

Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
