In that case, you may want to occasionally put the keyboard on your desk when you head out for lunch. One exception, however, is that if you use a slide-out keyboard drawer, you may find that the drawer doesn’t pull out far enough to completely expose the solar cells to light. For obvious reasons, I wasn’t able to test this claim, but in real-world use, it means that if you’re using the K750 in most office environments, you’ll never have to worry about a low battery.

In a well-lit office, the K750’s battery takes advantage of that ambient light to maintain a full charge according to Logitech, that would let you use the K750 for three months in total darkness. Instead, the keyboard’s internal, rechargeable battery can be charged by ambient light in all but the darkest of rooms. I make that distinction because unlike most solar-powered gadgets, the K750 doesn’t require actual sunlight.

As the keyboard’s name implies, the K750 for Mac is solar-powered-or, more accurately, light powered. (See the images in the gallery at the top of this review.) But all of the models have something in common: two strips of solar cells along that top edge. For $80, we're hard-pressed to find a better deal than the Editors' Choice Award-winning Logitech K750.The K750 for Mac is available in five color combinations: silver with white keys black with black keys and white-on-white with either blue, green, or pink trim along the top edge of the keyboard. Logitech has made it painless to reduce your energy consumption, and the key architecture and typing experience are unmatched in the competition. With the exception of a glossy black chassis that reveals fingerprints and scratches, we can find little to complain about in Logitech's K750 solar keyboard. Your accuracy might suffer in the interim, but we actually found ourselves typing faster after less than a week of using it. In practice, the key response is similar to that of an IBM ThinkPad laptop, so if you're used to typing on a regular keyboard, the K750 will be an acquired taste. The K750 uses Logitech's PerfectStroke key design that adds exactly 3.2mm of space between each key and uniform tactile feedback across the entire concave key surface. Of course, buying into the Unifying line basically limits you to the Logitech brand, but the company consistently earns our favor across its entire line of peripherals, including Logitech claims that a single 2-hour charge will retain power for three months in total darkness, or more if you remember to flip the on/off switch when you step away. That's standard battery technology, but the solar panels can also draw perpetual power from artificial light sources-in other words, you don't have to raise the keyboard to the sun for it to work the fluorescent bulbs above you will charge it just fine. The panels power the integrated ML2032 lithium manganese button-cell rechargeable battery that then pushes power to the keyboard. The standout features on the K750 are obviously the dual solar panels that sit on either side of the logo branding on top of the keys. This type of keyswitch also allows Logitech to reduce the thickness of the keyboard chassis to just one-third of an inch. Mechanical keyboards currently popular in the peripheral market, this input device uses scissor switches underneath that register key presses with a lighter touch, and give the additional benefit of low noise. With its low-profile keycaps and a glossy black mirrored finish behind them, the K750 solar keyboard looks more like a disconnected laptop keyboard than its desktop counterparts.
