Hello,

I'm looking to buy a mechanical keyboard (well duh...) and I have the following requirements:

under 100€ (not a super hard requirement, but not like 300€)
relatively silent (so no blue switches, i'd probably prefer red or brown)
german keyboard layout
bluetooth, to use with my iPad, but also USB (USB-C, if possible)
as long a battery charge as possible, because I keep forgeting to plug things in
battery indicator of some sort, to show me when to plug in; doesn't have to be anything special, a LED telling me to fucking-plug-it-in-already(TM) is alright
Tenkeyless layout with separate F-Keys, arrows and home/end/up/down block
exchangable switches would be nice

For now I don't have any aesthetic requirements. Can somebody help a fella, who doesn't know what's good and what's not, out?
