The Zalman one is 37GBP 

IMHO you're better off going mechanical instead of membrane, it's so much better, and this is coming from someone who used membrane keyboards for years.

The EagleTec one above is fullsized, has knockoff MX Blue switches, and has blue LED, but it's a bit on the expensive side at 50GBP.

this has Blue and Red LEDs, but isn't fullsized. knockoff MX Blues as well.

I have a Reidea KM06, highly recommend if you like linear keyswitches, RGB lighting, and only spending $50 or so on sale.

 

Knockoff MX red's, full RGB lighting with key-by-key customization, and a bunch of aluminum in the frame so it feels pretty solid.

 

My only real complaints are that if you release the key quickly enough for it to snap back up, you can hear the spring inside resonate slightly.

SFF-ish:  Ryzen 5 1600X, Asrock AB350M Pro4, 16GB Corsair LPX 3200, Sapphire R9 Fury Nitro -75mV, 512gb Plextor Nvme m.2, 512gb Sandisk SATA m.2, Cryorig H7, stuffed into an Inwin 301 with rgb front panel mod.  LG27UD58.

 

Aging Workhorse:  Phenom II X6 1090T Black (4GHz #Yolo), 16GB Corsair XMS 1333, RX 470 Red Devil 4gb (Sold for $330 to Cryptominers), HD6850 1gb, Hilariously overkill Asus Crosshair V, 240gb Sandisk SSD Plus, 4TB's worth of mechanical drives, and a bunch of water/glycol.  Coming soon:  Bykski CPU block, whatever cheap Polaris 10 GPU I can get once miners start unloading them.

 

MintyFreshMedia:  Thinkserver TS130 with i3-3220, 4gb ecc ram, 120GB Toshiba/OCZ SSD booting Linux Mint XFCE, 2TB Hitachi Ultrastar.  In Progress:  3D printed drive mounts, 4 2TB ultrastars in RAID 5.
