I threw out my AA batteries after using Logitech's new solar-powered keyboard
"Logitech's latest keyboard is about as easy as you can get. It's wireless, universally compatible, and has no removable batteries or charging ports -- generating its own power through light. The is a full-sized keyboard that couldn't be easier to set up, and "just works" indefinitely after that, with no input from the user about battery levels. Sure, similar products already exist, like Logitech's K750 solar keyboard , but the Slim Solar+ lives up to its name as a sleeker -- and more affordable at $99 -- option with the home office in mind."
"As its name implies, the Signature Slim Solar+ keyboard is light powered, but it doesn't need sunlight specifically. The keyboard absorbs ambient light through the strip along the top of the device, which powers it passively, generating the power it needs with the light available in your office or home. This also means you don't need to stick the keyboard under a spotlight to generate enough power; "normal" lighting conditions work just fine, including the overhead fluorescents in the office."
The Signature Slim Solar+ is a full-sized wireless keyboard that generates its own power from ambient light, eliminating removable batteries and charging ports. The keyboard charges via a discreet light-absorbing strip along the top and runs on normal indoor lighting, including office fluorescents. The device pairs easily across multiple computers and supports personalization through the Logi Options+ app. The Slim Solar+ is positioned as a sleeker, more affordable alternative to earlier solar models like the K750, priced at $99. In total darkness the keyboard can eventually discharge, with Logitech estimating about four months without light.
