Soleil Mechanical TKL is a wireless, tenkeyless mechanical keyboard by CannonKeys x Gondolindrim that charges via a discreet solar cell embedded in its wooden-arrow cluster. Matte aluminum casing and walnut or maple accents conceal the harvesting tech, allowing ambient light to power the keyboard for up to 12 months—no visible panels disrupting its clean look.
Enthusiasts will appreciate its hot-swappable PCB supporting multiple spacebar sizes, split right shift, and stepped caps lock, plus customizable ZMK firmware. Coming as a DIY kit, users supply their own switches, stabilizers, and keycaps. The top-mount design ensures satisfying acoustics, and the mix of natural wood and metal creates a refined, tactile experience. Its understated design conceals technical innovation, making it ideal for both minimal setups and eco-conscious users. Soleil represents a thoughtful fusion of craftsmanship and next-gen functionality.
