Hey guys, i bought a cliptec mouse from Popular Bookstore and found that the mouse is draining a lot of battery!
I change battery every 2 months +. Should i just trash this and get another Logitech one or is this normal?
Only using this for work.


Updated as of 6 Nov: I have bought a Logitech mouse. Hopefully this one will outlast everything! cool2.gif

Better yet, buy a rechargeable wireless mouse. No need to buy battery.

If you need to use rechargeable, then buy rechargeable AA battery to use in normal wireless mouse. Not built in type. As you know, the Lithium battery is rated for 500 times charging only. smile.gif

Use normal battery is better. What if you run out of power, Can you use while charging?

I also have Cliptec. the battery can last much longer. Not 2 months. Anyway it is still better than most at same price. The switch can last much much longer before I need to replace with new tact switch inside.

Previously using "OEM" mouse. Tired of changing the battery. No need to worry about battery anymore since since using Longitech.

just get a cheap logitech mouse will do.. if you are tired of changing the battery, can use a rechargeable battery instead of a disposable AA battery.
Price is different depends on the battery capacity

What battery brand you using? Those cheap one normally can't last long. And it also depend whether you turn off the mouse when not in use.

Logitech mice are really durable and reliable.

A plain standard Logitech mouse lasted me 5 years a long time ago.

An entry level gaming Logitech mouse (Rm130+) lasted 6+ years before the rubber parts started to deteriorate, the mouse itself still worked very well.

I've tried other brands of keyboard and mice but I think Logitech is still the best cost to performance ratio.

One thing to note for Logitech wireless mouse is the cheaper ones tend to be pretty small in size, so it's best to use an existing mouse you're comfortable with as a measurement guide and find one which fits the latter dimensions.

As many recommended, the best battery saving wireless mouse is Logitech. Even their bluetooth mouse is good. Swiss tech thumbsup.gif

Logitech mouse buttons will malfunction eventually but can DIY repair. I have fixed a few myself. There are youtube mouse repair videos out there.
