i have the same :D

:D

The keys are starting to go shiny which is a sign for me to upgrade! I'd get another S510 but It seems Logitech updated to the S520 and that doesn't look as slick as the S510 so I'll probably get the new diNovo for Notebooks keyboard as that looks much more slick and Logitech say a battery life of 15months which is believable as I can get at least 10months on the S510!

The photo was taken a long while back as already confirmed :D

10month battery life? mine would go like three maximum. yep, logitech updated it to s520. i was also skeptical at the start, but it's lighter, feels more like in one piece, the keys are softer, looks even better with mx revo etc. pretty much everything is improved, except for battery contact.

What batteries are you using? I'm using Duracell and Energizer and they last 10months+ easily with daily usage for several hours!

This is on the S510 by the way so are you saying the S520 batteries don't last as long ?

duracell. nope, that's on s510. the s520 uses bigger AA batteries and i only had it for a couple of weeks, so i don't yet know how long will they last

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
