The Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments which would render traditional input devices unusable. Fully enclosed in silicone, it meets IP68 protection standards for dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. With a cursorpoint mousing device incorporated into the keyboard, and key movement that provides distinct tactile feedback, the Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint is a complete data entry and control device in one.

The narrow 9" footprint of this keyboard means that it can be used wherever space is at a premium. However, the resulting reduction in key pitch spacing (14.6 mm, or 75% of standard) could make touch typing difficult. With the possible exception of those with extremely small hands, most will find it difficult to position their fingers over adjacent keys in the usual way. Adopting a two-fingered typing style can reduce the potential of overshooting the targeted keys. This keyboard is consequently more suitable for quick spurts of limited data entry than for extensive typing.

The incorporated cursorpoint mousing device is located directly below the spacebar and offers full fingertip cursor control. Large left and right click buttons flank it on both sides.

Note: The entire keypad has a raised outer lip running around it which in some environments could allow liquid to pool.

The Super Mini Wireless Trackball Keyboard from Solidtek features keycaps with a horizontal spacing of just 15 mm, approximately 78% of the normal. The keycaps are also shallower in height, resulting in the rows being spaced just 14 mm apart, approximately 73% of normal. This reduced spacing makes the keyboard not only narrower but also shallower (front to back). The fully-functioning membrane keys have a shorter-than-average travel and include a scissors mechanism that enhances the smoothness and stability of keyswitches. Despite including the smallest "physically functioning" keyboard available, it also includes both an embedded numeric keypad to offer full 101 key functionality. The Shift, Enter, Space Bar, Caps Lock, Tab, and all bottom and top row keys are all significantly smaller than on a standard keyboard.

The reduced key spacing and small size of the key caps make the Super Mini Wireless Trackball Keyboard primarily suitable for everyday two-handed use by children or those with smaller-than-average hands. For one-handed typing by those with average to smaller hands the compact width can reduce the movement necessary to access all of the keys and the convenience of an integrated mousing device will provide fully computer access in a compact 11.5" width. However those with larger finger tips will still have difficulty activating just a single key and would be better served by a compact keyboard with full-size keycaps and standard key spacing.

Although not ideal for daily use by many individuals the portability of this keyboard does make it suitable for short term use with portable devices. It can be powered the included USB cable, alkaline batteries, or rechargeable batteries.

NOTE: If the mini-USB cable is being used to power the keyboard, DO NOT USE the alkaline batteries at the same time, as the keyboard will ATTEMPT TO CHARGE THE BATTERIES. Use rechargeable batteries instead or uninstall the alkaline batteries during corded use.

The Compact Keyboard with Trackball from Solidtek is an 89 key mini-keyboard with a small (0.8 cm diameter) built-in optical trackball and buttons. All alpha-numeric keys are standard size; the rest are smaller than normal, including the Enter, Shift, and Space keys. There is also an embedded numeric keypad (legended in blue) instead of a discrete numeric keypad.

The Silicone Industrial Waterproof Compact Keyboard from Solidtek features a "slightly compact" layout with 17 mm key pitch spacing and large oversized legends. The result is an overall keyboard width of just 10.75". The Function Keys are just a 10 mm keycap but do offer access to media controls, email, and calculator as well as other commands. The "soft touch" rubberized surface is easy on the fingers and also keeps the keyboard firmly positioned. Numeric entry is accommodated by the embedded numeric keypad.

This keyboard from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments that would quickly render traditional keyboards inoperable or greatly shorten their life expectancy. It is fully enclosed in silicone and meets IP68 standards for protection from dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. Key activation provides distinct tactile feedback that may be necessary where gloves might hide more subtle response.

The small footprint means that this keyboard can be deployed where space would not accommodate a full-size keyboard, while still providing full functionality. The slightly compact key pitch will still work for most individuals but the closer spacing needs to be considered when determining the suitability. Keying accuracy can be ensured if a two-fingered typing style that eliminates the chance of overshooting the targeted keys is adopted. For these reasons this keyboard is more suitable for short bursts of data or numeric entry than for periods of extended typing, exactly the type of use that is required in keyboard unfriendly environments.

The 104 Key Mechanical Keyswitch Keyboard from Solidtek is a traditional-style keyboard with 104 keys, including the integrated numeric keypad.

All key sizes and spacing are standard, including those in the numeric keypad on the right.

Compact and economical, the USB Scissor-Switch Membrane Numeric Keypad from Solidtek has a reduced 17-key layout and weighs only 120 grams. Extra-large "0", "+", and Enter keys make targeting these easier on the smaller footprint. It is an ideal companion device for anyone using a compact keyboard or laptop but who also occasionally needs to do more intense numeric data entry, whether or not the keyboard has an available embedded numeric keypad.

This keyboard is identical to the SK595 except that it is wireless (using an infrared line of sight method of transmission).

The Washable Scroll Wheel Mouse from Solidtek is designed for deployment to locations where liquids or dust would damage or interfere with the functionality of a traditional mouse. The IP68 protection rating also makes this mouse ideal for applications where hygienic demands require regular cleaning and disinfection, even to the point of full immersion. With 2 standard buttons as well a clickable scroll wheel, this mouse can perform all standard mouse functions. The wired design ensures reliability with the 55" cord accommodating use in virtually any location. The body of the mouse is designed to accommodate both right and left-handed use and is sized to fit smaller to average sized hands. With a weight of just 113 grams it is almost effortless to move.

The Silicone Industrial Backlit Keyboard from Solidtek features a compact financial layout with 18 mm key pitch spacing and large centered backlit shine-through legends. The result is an overall keyboard width of just 15.0". The Function Keys have smaller (10 mm) keycaps to accommodate the compact layout. The "soft touch" rubberized surface is easy on the fingers and also keeps the keyboard firmly positioned. A full numeric keypad makes this keyboard ideal for stations where primarily numeric data is being entered.

This keyboard from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments that would quickly render traditional keyboards inoperable or greatly shorten their life expectancy. It is fully enclosed in silicone and meets IP68 standards for protection from dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. Key activation provides distinct tactile feedback that may be necessary where gloves might hide more subtle response. For locations with reduced lighting the backlit shine-through keycaps can increase accuracy and speed as well as reduce eye-strain. The backlighting can be set to two intensities or be turned off as desired.

The small footprint means that this keyboard can be deployed where space is limited, while still providing full functionality. The slightly compact key pitch will still work for most individuals but the slightly closer spacing needs to be considered when determining the suitability. Keying accuracy can be ensured for those with large hands if a two-fingered typing style that eliminates the chance of overshooting the targeted keys is adopted. For these reasons this keyboard is more suitable for short bursts of data or numeric entry than for periods of extended typing, exactly the type of use that is required in keyboard unfriendly environments.
