Highlights

Smart Display

Built-in screen with three modes — calculator, clock, and dynamic backgrounds — for both utility and style.

Time & Status

The integrated display provides at-a-glance visibility for the time, date, and essential keyboard metrics, including battery level, connection mode, and Caps Lock status.

IMAGE & GIFS

The display is fully customizable, allowing you to personalize the screen with your own images or GIFs via the Chilkey software.

WEATHER

Use Fn + Knob Rotation to access the weather display, providing real-time conditions and temperature at a glance.

STANDALONE CALCULATOR

Press Fn + Calculator Key to activate a standalone calculator directly on the screen. It operates independently of your system, enabling quick calculations without interrupting you workspace.

Functional knob

Aesthetically matched to the sleek aluminum case and functionally integrated with the smart display, the ND104’s hot-swappable knob provides precise, intuitive control over volume and media among other functions.

RGB ALL AROUND

The ND104 features fully customizable per-key RGB and underglow strips for a soft, ambient effect. Choose from static modes or dynamic animations, or turn both off for a clean, stealthy aesthetic.

OPTIONAL STORAGE COMPARTMENT

The ND104’s navigation cluster can be swapped for a storage compartment that comes included in box. It's perfect for keeping USB drives, wireless receivers, or spare switches on hand. If you prefer this look, you can easily remap the navigation keys to a separate layer to have your cake and eat it too!

Wireless Freedom

The ND104 supports three connection modes: Bluetooth 5.4, 2.4GHz wireless (dongle included), and USB-C (cable included). Its 8000mAh battery capacity will last an entire day of non-stop use with the RGB on, or about 4.5 days with the RGB off.

One keyboard, many different looks!

The ND104’s screen and knob cluster are fully modular. You can replace either / both the screen and the knobs if you prefer a more traditional look!

Two Switch Options

WS Breeze

A balanced linear for a daily driver. Medium spring weight, factory-lubed for an ultra smooth bottom-out. Designed for those who want a deep, creamy sounding setup that is present and satisfying, but never loud.

WS Silent Linear

A near-silent alternative to the WS Breeze. Also factory-lubed for a frictionless bottom-out. Optimized for low-stimulus environments and deep-work sanctuaries where you sacrifice a bit of the type-feel to minimize the sound.

Two PCB Options

1.2mm Flexcut

This option is perfect if you like a softer, bouncier typing experience. Use the Elastic Bar mounting system if you want to accentuate the bouncy feel even further.

1.6mm Non-Flexcut

This is the option you want if you prefer a firmer, more traditional typing experience. If you want an even firmer typing experience, try using Top Mount system using the included screws!

Both PCBs can achieve a bouncier or stiffer experience depending on the mounting method used.

3 Mounting Systems

Elastic Bar

The bounciest of the three mounting system. Offers a more familiar gasket mount experience

Silica Gel (INSTALLED)

The mid-point of the three available mounting systems. The keyboard will come assembled in this mounting style

Top Mount

Classic mounting style that offers a rigid typing experience
