Wireless UHK60?

Quick & Dirty DIY UHK60 Bluetooth (Plug & Go)

Hello I hope this finds you well. Recently I “converted” my UHK60 to function via Bluetooth+Battery. In my case, I wanted to do this without any deeply-involved methods. This means parts that can be ordered via Amazon Prime, no major alterations to the keyboard itself, and preferably plug & go. I was able to get it working. I did so via a USB → Bluetooth transmitter, a tiny form factory battery, and an extra usb-c cable (plus some thin Velcro tape). This “conversion” works essentially out of bo…
