BLE Key Compact
Battery built in. Key away from the desk, no cable needed.
BLE Key Compact has a rechargeable battery soldered in under the board, so it works without a cable. Longpath shows the battery level, USB-C charges it, and after ten idle minutes it goes to sleep. The first press wakes it up again.
