+
+The Stack Overflow "The Key V2" is a 3 button macropad based on atmega32u4 with hot-swappble Kailh Black Box switches.
+
+> Last year, we brought Stack Overflow’s iconic April Fool’s joke to life. Advertised as the new (and only) way to copy and paste on the site, it was an ultra-compact macropad called The Key. The punchline-turned product was a huge hit, selling over 10K units and earning a nearly 5-star average review. Now, we’re back with a second act: The Key V2. The same size as its portable predecessor, this punchline-turned-product has a few notable changes—including an acrylic case to accent its two built-in RGB LEDs. Plus, we made it hot-swappable, so you can easily change out the switches for a truly custom experience. And just like the original, a portion of all proceeds from The Key V2 will go to the data-driven social startup digitalundivided.
