Afternoon Labs Breeze Keyboard Kit

$129.99

We want you to treat yourself. You need an afternoon sipping a cool drink with a gentle breeze on your face!

Keebio has made additions to the Breeze to make it an even more lovely piece for your hands and peace of mind. It now features mid-mount USB-C ports (to replace TRRS), hotswap sockets, and diodes already soldered on. The only soldering that needs to be done is soldering in the microcontrollers!

The world is your oyster at the beach with the Breeze.

Notes about the initial release: This first batch of Breeze kits is relatively small due to it being an initial run to test the waters with selling it. If the batch sells out quickly it will be restocked within a month.

Good Stuff

The PCB and components look good and feels sturdy. I would prefer a white PCB for the white case :)

Some of the screws are in a awkward location where you need to remove the screw to take out the switch. M2 screws might be better for these tight spaces, for the next revision.

The case is very nicely printed and feels nice and sturdy. Unfortunately a corner chipped off during shipping, but the keeb.io team and the shipping insurance took care of it swiftly. I was very happy with how the issue was resolved.

Some standoffs for the PCB and the plate would be nice.

4.8/5
