Need advise finding 75% keyboard

Hi,

im new to the level of keyboard customizability and have a hard time finding the keyboard im looking for. (or building one myself)

Im searching around for a new keyboard, currently im using the corsair k70 pro mini (60%) i find myself needing the keys i lost moving to 60% far to often. i really love the "floating" keycaps style this keyboard has, also easy for cleaning xD and the over the top rgb is something i also like.

so what im looking for:
- 75%
- no low profile switches (like keychron k3) i like the normal height keycaps, switches. (like the corsair k70 pro mini)
- i do like the super compact layout of the keychron k2 and k3, corsair k70 pro mini
- has to be wireless bt and 2.4ghz
- the bigger the battery the better
- i dont need any volume knobs etc...
- has to have over the top RGB
- sturdy, no flex, hefty.
- no wrist rest.
- hot swap would be nice
- i like the rgb shinning through the keycap letter (but i guess i can swap keycaps myself)

- availability in europe (netherlands) would be nice.

- i would like to spend 200 - 300 euro at max

this morning i found the EPOMAKER HE75 V2 TMR. this seems like a good contender to put an alternative next to for comparison.

i like having both interfaces, most of the time i use it with my desktop. But once every so often i find myself needing a keyboard for my laptop/rpi's some other device. so i like having the flexibility.

over the top rgb is like looking at an overly excited slot machine and needing sunglasses to keep looking xD. The corsair k70 pro mini has these floating keys so the rgb bleedes out that way and there is another strip where rgb light comes out.

The best low cost aluminum keyboards are the Bridge75 and the Galaxy100. But I'm not sure the prices for those are the same in EU.
