ErgoDox 76 "Hot Dox" V2 Mechanical Keyboard
The Actually Ergonomic Keyboard
Do a Google search for ergonomic keyboards, and what you’ll find are “waveform” designs that are useless when it comes to solving the root problem of keyboard-related back pain. What your back craves is relaxation. And it can only relax when you split a keyboard in half, spread those halves out, and allow your shoulder blades to relax naturally against your chair back. That’s where the ErgoDox 76 comes in.
Independence at Your Fingertips
The ability to use each half of the keyboard independently is here. Whether you're multitasking or gaming, configure the Hot Dox V2 for left-hand only, right-hand only, or any combination in between. This flexibility both ensures your setup aligns perfectly with your needs and provides a truly ergonomic solution.
Free Your Thumb From Spacebar Jail
Without thumbs, there would be no keyboards. After all, having opposable thumbs is what allowed us to evolve into tool-making creatures. So why is it that when our thumbs are capable of so much we only give them a spacebar to press? Unlike most keyboards, the ErgoDox 76 features clusters of six keys for each thumb, which can be programmed as space bars, enter keys, backspace keys, layer shifters, or anything else you can imagine.
Hot-Swap: Customize on the Fly
Using the included switch puller, you can quickly remove and replace any switches to create your own personalized typing experience. Use lighter switches for your pinky fingers, modify your switches with lube or different springs, and explore the endless configuration options to your heart’s content.
A Clear View with Acrylic and Aluminum
Nestled between layers of durable acrylic, the aluminum switch plate of the Hot Dox V2 is allowed to shine. This design choice is not just for looks—it enhances your keyboard's feel while providing a window into its mechanical heart.
Keycaps That Last
The DSA profile PBT keycaps included with the Hot Dox V2 are designed for durability and comfort. Resistant to wear, shine, and yellowing, these keycaps maintain their texture and appearance over time.
Firmware That Keeps You in Control
With VIA compatibility, the Hot Dox V2 is effortlessly customizable. Configure layouts, layers, and lighting in real-time without the need for complex software.

"Very cool, very unique." -Tech Room UK
"I really enjoyed using this. I couldn't get enough of the RGB. I love the design. The single-hand usability excelled like no other keyboard I've tried. Plus, my shoulders and wrists did feel better when I spread the sides out more." -Cache Keyboards
