Compact TKL Form Factor
The be quiet! Light Mount TKL is an 80% tenkeyless mechanical keyboard that removes the numpad to free desk space and improve mouse movement. It targets esports players, FPS enthusiasts and productivity users who want a smaller footprint without sacrificing full mechanical functionality. A brushed aluminium top plate and magnetic palm rest add rigidity and comfort for long sessions. Hot-swappable 5-pin MX-style sockets let owners swap switches without soldering.
Silent Switches and Dampening
Factory-lubricated Silent V2 linear switches deliver smooth, ultra-quiet keystrokes with gold contact points for reliability. Three integrated foam layers sit between the switches and PCB, beneath the PCB and inside the case to suppress resonance and typing noise. Double-shot PBT keycaps resist shine and maintain legends while contributing to the muted acoustic profile. The detachable braided USB-A-to-C cable keeps the connection clean and portable.
Upgrade From Membrane or Loud Boards
This keyboard replaces standard membrane keyboards or louder mechanical models where noise and desk clutter are concerns. The jump is worth it for users who need linear, silent actuation, per-key ARGB lighting with side underglow and a programmable 3D media wheel plus three macro keys. Quick Tap SOCD technology prioritises the latest directional input for faster movement changes in competitive titles. Customisation is handled through the be quiet! IO Center software for lighting, macros and key remapping.

Questions about this item
How do I install the magnetic palm rest and which orientation is correct?
The palm rest attaches magnetically to the bottom edge of the keyboard; align the metal contacts on the rest with the corresponding strips on the case and press until it clicks.
What maintenance will the pre-lubricated Silent V2 switches and PBT keycaps need over time?
Keycaps can be removed with a puller for occasional cleaning; the factory lubrication on the switches is not user-serviceable, so avoid spraying liquids directly onto the board.
At what point does the three-layer foam dampening stop absorbing sound during long typing sessions?
The foam layers are passive and do not saturate; acoustic performance remains consistent regardless of session length.
