Add a good quality, slim chiclet keyboard as well as an optical mouse to your Raspberry Pi, Beagle Bone Black or other mini-computer with this wireless combo set. Best of all, it only uses a single USB port! This combo comes with a sleek black chiclet keyboard and mouse both controlled by a single wireless USB dongle. The keyboard is a full QWERTY keyboard and is compatible with all operating systems. The mouse is comfortable for all hand sizes, has optical tracking, and two buttons scroll wheel. We tried many keyboards & mice to find one that felt good for every-day use and didn't take up too much room.
While it's not as small as our , this keyboard and mouse will work great with a PC, Mac, or . And both are still very small with the keyboard measuring 285mm x 125mm x 20mm and the mouse at 112mm x 58mm x 22mm.
The keyboard and mouse connect through a USB port so it works great with just about anything.
To use with a Raspberry Pi, change the keyboard to USA PC104 layout:
- Switch to root user.
- Run 'dpkg-reconfigure locales' and change from en_GB.UTF-8 to en_US.UTF-8.
- Run 'dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration' and change the keyboard to USA PC104 (again, change as needed).
The keyboard and mouse communicate over 2.4GHz to the dongle, but it is not Bluetooth compatible.
Comes with 4 x AAA batteries.
