So here’s what I do with my trusty USB only Kinesis Advantage. First I got a Handheld Scientific’s dongle. It exposes a USB keyboard as a Bluetooth device. It does need to be powered though so I got a small power bank and I plug that in. It’s not sexy (unless you’re into that 😜) but it’s low effort and it works like a charm.

Interesting thanks.

I’m going back and forth now with a LLM doing some research. I have made my own BT split keyboard before, but just checking I can tap into the PCB of the mouse.

Seems like it’s doable with the mx518 reissue but I have the original… Might need to open it up and take a look. Gonna pair it with a niceNano microcontroller.

That sounds pretty awesome for real. You’re going way further then I’ve dared so far! Best of luck to you.
