Hi, does anybody know if a wireless solar keyboard with touchpad exist?

Basically what I'm looking for is a combination of the Logitech keyboards K750 and K830.

agreed. however i'm not sure that such a combo product exists.

you could buy a normal wireless keyboard with a trackpad that runs off of battery and it would only cost you perhaps $1 every 6 months for batteries (or less) and you can buy it for cheaper.

or go with a wireless mouse and keyboard set instead since just about all the trackpad keyboards do not have any real adjustment for sensitivity and the logitech ones are known to revert settings back to default even after you changed them.

not the answer you were looking for but i think that might work out better for you.

not that i know of.

keep in mind that such devices may not charge very well indoors also. the logitech k750 is known to work for about 3 months on the initial charge but unless you have it either outdoors or in direct sunlight it does not charge very well and will give you issues.

is there a particular reason why you need it to be solar? batteries can last for 6-8 months in a wireless keyboard and some of the non-gaming type mice such as my m505 can have the batteries last for about the same period of time. one pack of batteries could last you a long time. its also possible to hook up a solar panel in direct light and run it over to a usb hub so that your keyboard doesnt need to be in the sun.

Solar seems to make sense for a keyboard and in my case it would be in direct sunlight all day. I was going to buy the K750, but then I noticed there is no touchpad so it's totally useless when you are on the sofa (unless you are one of those geeks that know how to move around Windows just using the keyboard...).
