Logitech MX Keys S Wireless Keyboard....$109 @ Amazon
If you go with a Logitech, may as well get a solar-powered one. Those things are awesome - when we still had an office, half my coworkers were using them. Those things managed to stay charged even inside offices with no windows and very little discernible source of natural light. When the office closed, I pilfered one and still use it for work. Since I had to grab what was available, mine's actually a Mac version (I work on Windows, so there's an occasional problem mapping function keys, but for the most part it doesn't matter). But Logitech does have a Windows version.

Obviously that's not something you want if you are looking for a fancy backlit gaming keyboard, though.

That's kinda neat. Cheap, too.

How do people feel about Logitech keyboards in general? It seems like I've read some bad-mouthing here, but I might be remembering wrong.

You've seen a lot of bad-mouthing Razer, but I've never had major issues with Logitech. The Logitechs I've used have lasted about the same time as any others.

Seems I need to decide if I want fancy (Kasey's Redragon) or simple (Gilraen's Logitech). Right now I'm leaning toward simple, and I like the solar power gimmick. I'll make up my mind after I get back from my grocery run. Still time to make more suggestions if anybody else has a favorite full-size, wireless, rechargeable keyboard.

Until this post, I wasn't even aware that rechargeable keyboards were a thing. I just use rechargeable batteries in my wireless keyboards. They only need changed once every few months, so it's not much of a hassle.

Having owned a rechargeable keyboard, I'll never go. back .to ......batteries. Except I bough.t th.e .solar Logitech, so .now .I won't even have .to recharge it!

Dell actually had the lowest price, bu.t it's .going to take a. week .to get here. Oh well, I'.m learning t.o like .p.eriods...............................

I bought it through .my company, so using pre-tax .dollars. feels just tha.t much better.

I used to want blue only, I've switched to browns, and my most recent keyboard is red. I'm surprised that I really didn't feel much of a difference. LOL.

I used a Logitech MX Master Keys for years. Started to get an occasional misfire on the “I” key after about 10000 hours, so replaced it with the MX Mechanical. An absurdly amazing keyboard. But pimpin’ ain’t cheap.

I has a solar-powered keyboard. Neat!
