Hello

 

Just wanting to know how i would wire this into a wired keyboard, to make it wireless.

 

I was also thinking about getting a a 3 position switch. Just have no idea on how to wire it in a way which charges the device if I want to use it wired.

Also if there is an alternate bluetooth adapter that could've worked for this, ideally more cost effective

 

Inspiration for this project came from this video:

I suggest that you look into the Adafruit Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE and a Lipo battery. I'm not near my computer at the moment so I can't give you detailed info right now but it's used a fair amount on r/mechanicalkeyboards.

I've got a Keychron Q0 coming sometime in the next month that I'm going to convert to wireless using this method if I can find room in the small case.

Interesting. The gold powerbank that I have has got the battery, pretty much similar to the video.

I plan on using this or similar, as I plan to switch between wired and wireless. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/113169357193?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qePvvt6jRH6&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=t1lh8YYKSeG&var=413472978810&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

 

Perhaps with the adafruit that you mentioned it'll be ease to achieve what I want. Need to do more research.

 

Side note. I am doing this to my razer cynosa v1, a membrane keyboard...

I had a look at what you mentioned. I have also found this that maybe of some use to you.

I only ordered the pcb, after damaging the white one I had, what a shame.
