Still got mine for my travel kit when working remote, going hard since 2006.

I'd love a Bluetooth conversion kit somehow... If anybody knows what I need please comment.

    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.
