Weikav Max102 Keyboard Kit

In the world of custom keyboards, the pursuit of one thing is shared by builders, modders, and enthusiasts alike. It’s that perfect sound profile—the exact feel—and it often means tearing down your board, again and again. The story’s the same with the new Weikav Max102, but it changes the ending. It replaces the hassle of tiny screws with the satisfaction of instant access.

The Hassle-Free Modding Experience

Instant Access, Endless Possibilities

This full-size, 102-key keyboard kit is built around a single idea: modding should be easy. At its center is a thoughtfully designed system using a Ball-Catch Structure and Magnetic Pogo Pins. This combination removes the need for screws to hold the case together, letting you separate the top and bottom housing with just a bit of firm pressure. Swapping plates, adding foam, or lubing switches is no longer a project. It’s a simple adjustment.

Built on a Solid Foundation

Easy access means nothing without a quality chassis. The Max102 starts with a single block of 6063 aluminum, CNC-machined into a 2.1 kg frame that stays planted on your desk. Complementing this solid case is a premium gasket-mounted structure. The 1.2 mm flex-cut PCB rests on silicone cushions and corner pads, isolating it from the metal case. This design, supported by a full array of internal sound-insulating foam, absorbs the impact of every keystroke to deliver a soft, consistent typing feel and a deep, satisfying sound.

Engineered for Superior Sound and Feel

Cut the Cords, Not the Performance

The Max102 gives you the freedom to connect however you want. Use a classic wired USB-C connection for your main desk, switch to the low-latency 2.4 GHz wireless for a clean setup, or pair with up to three devices using Bluetooth 5.1. At the heart of this freedom is a massive 10,000 mAh battery, giving you the confidence to work and play for extended periods without reaching for a cable. The 2.4 GHz dongle even has its own magnetic storage spot, so it’s always there when you need it.

Your Board, Your Rules

We covered the hardware. Now, for the software. Working in harmony with the 5-pin hot-swappable PCB, full QMK and VIA compatibility gives you the power to personalize with precision. Remap any key, create complex macros to streamline your workflow, and control the per-key RGB lighting. It’s an open-source foundation that puts you in complete control of your board’s behavior. You choose the switches and keycaps to perfect the look—why should the firmware be any different?

Everything You Need for Your Next Build

Outfitted with all the fundamentals for a perfectly tuned typing experience—and shipped as a barebones kit so you can assemble it exactly to your liking—the Weikav Max102 cuts no corners.

Questions & Answers

What comes in the Weikav Max102 kit?

The barebones kit includes the full keyboard assembly (case, PCB, FR4 plate, stabilizers, foams), a USB-C cable, and a combination keycap/switch puller tool.

What else do I need to complete the build?

This is a barebones kit, so you will need to provide your own switches (any MX-style, 3-pin or 5-pin) and a set of keycaps compatible with a 102-key ANSI layout.

How do I charge the battery?

The 10,000 mAh battery should only be charged by connecting the keyboard to a computer's USB port. Using a high-wattage wall charger (like one for a phone) can damage the PCB.

Is the software easy to use?

VIA is a web-based and desktop graphical configurator that makes programming your keyboard simple. Once you load the compatible firmware, you can make changes in real-time without needing to code.
