[IC] TacWorks TAC-P1 20% Numeric Keypad Kit - A Blend of Nostalgic Design and Modern Functionality
Hey guys!

We are excited to partner with TacWorks to bring this stunning custom numeric keypad kit to life!

KEY FEATURES:
Design Concept
We wanted to create a numeric keypad that does not just function well but also captures your imagination. Inspired by classic retro game consoles, we have designed the numeric keypad to evoke a sense of nostalgia with colourful directional keys, circular buttons, and coloured backplates. It is like stepping back into a favorite game from your childhood. We hope it becomes one of the coolest gadgets on your desk.

When it comes to the keypad itself, we have focused on aesthetics with lots of G2 continuous curves and smooth surfaces. The upper and lower covers have curved treatments, giving the keyboard a balanced, orderly look from the side, and creating a natural typing angle.

Colourful Themes
The TAC-P1 is available in 11 vibrant colour schemes. You can choose from anodized options like Tiffany Purple, Rose Red, and Orange Gold, or go for ceramic coated variants such as Milk White, Black Pink, and Pink Green. We have also added new anodized options, Purple Green, and Black Red, and ceramic coated ones, Yellow, Blue White, and Red White.

Triple Mode PCB
The TAC-P1’s PCB supports QMK / VIA custom keymapping and offers three connection modes: wired, Bluetooth, and 2.4GHz. It features standard RGB backlighting and a 1500mAh battery, packing a lot of power into a small package. We believe this numeric keypad will be a perfect productivity companion on your desktop, ready to impress.

Gasket Mount
We have brought over the efficient gasket mount from our TAC-K1. Instead of the traditional lower shell limiting design, we use gaskets that provide excellent rebound and a satisfying typing feel. We have adjusted the force arms for the numeric keypad’s smaller size, ensuring a soft rebound effect that enhances your typing experience.

Sound Optimization Kit
The TAC-P1 comes packed with a complete 5-layer sound optimization kit. This includes PET insulation foam, PORON switch socket foam, PET sound pad, IXPE switch pad, and PORON plate foam. Combined with the gasket mount structure, these elements make even a small numeric keypad’s sound premium.

Plate & Stabilizers
The standard TAC-P1 comes with a double-sided matte PC plate. The plate mounted stabilizers make adjustments easy without disassembling the entire internal kit. For those who prefer traditional PCB mount style, we have kept that option open with PCB holes that support PCB mounted stabilizers, offering you the choice between stability and convenience.






Surface Treatment
We have tailored the surface treatments to match the characteristics of each Colour theme. Anodized options include Rose Red, Orange Gold, Purple Green, Black Red, and Tiffany Purple. Ceramic-coated options include Black Pink, Milk White, Pink Green, Yellow, Blue White, and Red White. Ceramic coatings provide stronger resistance to dirt and impact while maintaining a delicate finish to protect your keyboard.

Product Packaging
The TAC-P1 will come with a carbon fiber textured numeric keypad storage bag, a kraft paper box, and matching model stickers.


We are excited for you to experience the TAC-P1, a blend of nostalgic design and modern functionality, making it the perfect companion to our TAC-K1 65% mechanical keyboard kit, all at an affordable price.
