96% Wireless Mechanical Keyboard

The Redragon LINGBAO K98 is a 96% layout mechanical keyboard with gasket mounting and hot-swappable switch sockets. It uses factory-lubed tactile switches and includes a number pad. The board supports triple-mode connectivity covering Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz wireless and USB-C wired operation. A lithium-ion rechargeable battery powers the wireless modes.

Suits Typists and Gamers Wanting Flexibility

This keyboard fits users who want a compact numeric layout, gasket feel and the ability to swap switches without soldering. The dedicated software enables macro programming, RGB customisation and full N-key rollover. Buyers who need a separate numeric keypad or a different switch feel out of the box should consider other options.

Hot-Swappable Tactile Switches

The defining specification is the hot-swappable PCB that accepts both 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical switches. It ships with pre-lubed tactile switches rated for 60 million keystrokes. This allows the owner to change the typing character at any time without desoldering tools.

Questions about this item

How warm or noisy does the K98 get when the RGB backlight runs all day?

The board draws power from a lithium-ion rechargeable battery; with 16 dynamic RGB effects active, heat and fanless noise stay low because there are no moving cooling parts.

What ports or adapters must my PC already have so the tri-mode connection works?

You need one free USB-A port for the 2.4 GHz dongle or a USB-C port for the wired cable; Bluetooth pairing works with any standard Bluetooth radio.

Will the 96 % layout and hot-swap sockets let me keep using my existing 3-pin or 5-pin switches and keycaps?

Yes — the PCB accepts both 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical switches, and the standard stem fits most aftermarket keycap sets.
