    Solar bluetooth keyboard that is quiet (can type in class without distraction), can fit in a backpack, and can switch between devices quickly, and works with windows 8.1

    I still haven't found something like this yet. Have you?

    I always find something that has maybe two of the above features and thats it.

    There is no reason to get a solar powered keyboard. Disposable batteries last a very long time.

    I have seen an Logitech solar bluetooth keyboard for sale, i did a search for the best price and found loads re-conditioned on ebay, so maybe a problem with them?

    Maybe the users didn't get out enough.




    But yeah, the K760 seems to be the only viable option. It's for Macs tho.

    ^ This.

    Get a Logitech K810. You can recharge the battery overnight or when you're not using it.
