Breeze Split Keyboard

Note: Breeze cases have moved to their own product page here -> Breeze - 3D Printed Case Kit

The Breeze Split Keyboard is the ideal starting point for any mechanical keyboard enthusiast that is willing try something new. Something... better. Most smaller keyboards are a game of compromises, meaning you'll need to get the hang of a bunch of key combinations to get to anything but the absolute basics. The Breeze Split Keyboard is basically a TKL (tenkeyless) keyboard minus the function row. Plus, a free 2x3 macro pad included with every PCB kit.

The base PCB kit contains:

• 2x PCBs (one for either hand) with diodes pre-soldered
• 2x Reset button
• 2x TRRS receptacle
• Free 2x3 macropad
• Pro Micro / Elite-C compatible

The socket kits contain 70 sockets of either the MX or Choc variant.
The keycap kits contains 70x 1U keycaps, 2x 1U homing keycaps and 2x 2U keycaps. 

For a complete keyboard you need the following parts:

1. The base Breeze PCB kit (this product)

2. A pair of controllers. You can either get a set of Arduino Pro Micros (or clones) or select the Elite-C V4 2-pack above. The Elite-C is currently the best bang for buck controller based on the ATMega 32U4 chipset and has a sturdy USB connector.

3. A hotswap socket kit. Contains 70 sockets of either the Choc or MX variant.

4. Keycaps. MBK Keycaps go great with Choc switches (they won't fit MX switches).

5. Switches (see related products below!)

6a. An aluminum plate kit (currently MX only), which consists of 2 plates (left and right), spacers and a set of hex bolts.

6b. An even lighter weight option that is easier on the wallet to boot? We have the same plates available in black FR4 for either MX or Choc switches.

7. Complete the set with the original Breeze enclosure. Previously only available in white, but now in gray, black and blue as well. To not make this product page to complicated, we have given the cases its own product page here: Breeze - 3D Printed Case Kit.

8. 1x TRRS Cable. Preferably something around 1ft / 30cm long.

9. A free evening to build it using the build guide on the Afternoon Labs website.

Note: Batteries cannot be shipped outside the US.
