Lily Pad – A Split Keyboard Built for Everyday Comfort and Long-Term Performance
The Lily Pad by Boardsource is designed to make high-quality split keyboards more accessible, comfortable, and beautiful. It’s fully compatible with standard Lily58 PCBs, so if you already have a DIY Lily 58 build, you can drop your components right in, no need to start from scratch. Or, build fresh with our own SMT hot-swap RGB PCB and enjoy a no-solder experience from start to finish. Whether you're coming from a traditional keyboard or upgrading an existing Lily, Lily Pad is the ergonomic solution that blends thoughtful design with easy assembly and wide compatibility. With its column-staggered layout, split configuration, and customizable angles, Lily Pad helps reduce wrist strain, shoulder tension, and long-term discomfort caused by unibody keyboards. It’s built to support your hands in a more natural position, without sacrificing performance, build quality, or looks. And because Lily Pad is based on the familiar 60% layout, it's an ideal introduction to ergonomic keyboards. You keep all the keys you rely on daily, just in a smarter and more comfortable format. Whether you're new to splits or a seasoned user, Lily Pad offers a smoother, more enjoyable typing experience.
