After my foot switch I'm going to make a macro keyboard. So far my first use case is the input of some passwords. I know it's not safe to do so. As I'm working from home and have to enter the same damn passwords multiple times in a row it's tiring. As a safety measure I ordered lever switches with those cool flip covers that are always shown in movies for arming the big guns or a powerful machine. In my case this lever switch is for unlocking the password buttons. The buttons have a LED and light up when they are unlocked. Besides that I plan to have 8 additional buttons for volume control and microphone control and have some buttons left. With that I have almost all pins used up without resorting to a scan matrix. I ain't patience and time for soldering that.
