prism – a bluetooth, low profile numpad

I needed a numpad for work and saw just how few quality options exist (and next to no decent wireless ones), so I started carefully designing my own a few years ago. I think this fills some gaps in the market, and not just for the MK keyboard community.

KeebsForAll has taken on this project, overseeing the manufacturing, sales, and fulfillment.

Features

• PCB: ZMK-based, for the excellent battery life & wireless focus
• Switches: Kailh Choc V1
• Keycaps: Custom dye-subbed MBK profile (legends design not final)
• Case material: Machined Polycarbonate

These made particular sense for a number pad. Wireless means you can freely experiment with ideal placement, and easily tuck it away when not in use. Choc switches are more compact than MX (even the grid spacing), so this takes up a pretty small footprint. And low profile keycaps are pleasantly reminiscent of calculators.

Design

There are a couple of options I've been experimenting with, and I'm open to feedback:

Shout out to rainkeeb who helped me out in the very beginning, and Jerry, original owner of KFA, who was super open to taking this on.
