The answer depends on the context.

1k, where k stands for kilo, generally means 1,000. However, in computer technology, it often refers to 1024 = 210 - unless used for marketing!

Also, 1k, for track events, refers to 1 kilometre.

In physics 1K is 1 Kelvin: that is -272.15 degrees Celsius.

There are probably other contexts that I cannot think of, off the top of my head.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
