News: Keybrick Move

Keybrick Move takes all the features you love from Keybrick One and optimizes them for the LEGO® Move Hub 88006.

Keybrick One & Keybrick One Lite at a glance

Keybrick One

  2. Two to four hours play time
  3. can be charged while in the LEGO® Powered Up Hub
  4. Three selectable power modes
    Output voltage: 6.3V / 7.8V / 9.3V
  5. with magnetic cable tie for switching the power modes of Keybrick

  7. lightweight at just 50g (*)

Keybrick One Lite

  1. no battery inside, needs an external USB Power Delivery compatible powerbank (not included)
  2. playtime depends on your powerbank
  3. just plug in another powerbank as needed
  4. Single power mode:
    Output voltage: 8.4V
  5. automatically switches on when you plug in the powerbank and swiches off, when unplugging the powerbank

(*) that makes Keybrick together with the 23g Hub lighter than just the battery holder with six alkaline cells!

Every new gadget comes with its own app, right? Not Keybrick. We figured that trying to replace the original LEGO® Hub would only hurt our main goals! That’s why Keybrick comes as a drop-in replacement for the original battery holder. Take it out, insert your Keybrick and you’re ready for hours of fun.

6x AAA Alkaline batteries
  • is rechargeable
  • has selectable power mode
  • charges via Micro-USB
  • charges while in the LEGO® Powered Up Hub
  • long play time (similar to slightly longer than Keybrick when using high quality batteries. Models get sinificantly slower at the end though)
  • weights about 83g (~ 11.5g for per cells + 14g battery holder)
6x AAA NiMH batteries
  • is rechargeable
  • doesn’t gets slower as it discharges
  • has selectable power mode
  • charges via Micro-USB (requires special charger)
  • charges while in the LEGO® Powered Up Hub (batteries need to be taken out)
  • long play time
  • weights over 100g (~14.5g per cell + 14g battery holder)

Other things we are preparing

We have *plenty* of ideas for other products in the LEGO® Powered Up ecosystem (like that Powered Up cable breakout board idea on the left for all avid hardware hackers!) or the Keybrick Move as well as the Keybrick Technic.

We launched a Kickstarter campaign for Keybrick One in late September of 2020. While it didn’t reach our set target, we learned a lot. If you want to have a glance of where we come from, head over to the campaign as it’s a great place to start the discovery.

We’ve built and tested numerous prototypes, shipped some to testers around the world to a point we can say that we know it’s ready for prime time!

While the pictures above are all 3D renderings which represent what we’d like Keybrick to look like in future, we do have a number of prototypes we love to show:

P.S.: more prototype picture over there!

The KEYbrick Story

We are proud to say that Keybrick is engineered and manufactured in Engen, Germany. Some components like the Lithium Polymer cells come from our suppliers all over the world, but the largest part of the manufacturing (electronics assembly, programming, testing, final assembly) is done in our own facilities!
