KBD8X MKII Mechanical keyboard kit

KBD8X MKII
In collaboration with ai03, the KBD8X has been redesigned inside and out.
Enjoy improved aesthetics and typing comfort for an accessible price.
Sleek and seamless
Thin bezels have been carefully outfitted with a seamless aesthetic for a modern, minimal look.
A brass weight on the bottom adds the premium touch.
Thoroughly engineered
The top-mounted plate and dual flex slot PCB are optimized for typing comfort.
For maximized flex, choose the polycarbonate half-plate option (Compatible with PCB-mount switches only).
Tailored to you
The case halves' colors can be mix-and-matched - enjoy unique color combinations that suit your preferences.
Choose a regular top for maximum functionality, or a winkeyless top for a classic appearance.
PCB done right
The PCB offers built-in overcurrent and ESD protection, making it durable against mishaps.
The Caps Lock and Scroll Lock keys' LEDs can be switched between indicator and backlight mode with a toggle switch.
The perfect match
The KBDPAD MKII numpad is designed with the same profile as the KBD8X MKII, allowing for a matching aesthetic setup.
Pair them together for full-fledged functionality on the desk.
