THANK YOU ! Enough already !
I was under the impression that they should have lasted perhaps a month
or more,
just as some of you have experienced,
but then others have been down to days !
The weeks deal would go great with a blister pack , but on the other
hand
the logitech lasting days is more in the Rechargeable field. .
There's a message there !
Select the right Brand of mouse !
Once again , thanks
Bob

I had a talk with one of the guys from Batteries + about rechargeable
in cordless mice and they didn't recommend rechargeables as being the
best option because they self drain quite quickly and so only retain
sufficient charge for around 1 to 2 months normal use. He suggested
that with the cost of 4 Lion batteries (2 in the mouse and 2 charged
replacements) being about $20+ (for brand name ones) you could get a
blister pack of 20 alkaline batteries and each pair should last about
3 months so you should get around 2 to 3 years out of a pack.
Depends on the mouse but ...
The MS Intellimouse Explorer here at work seems to just keep going
and going (AA batteries). The logitech MX1000 at home seems to last a
few weeks (rechargable) ... less so if I spend a weekend playing WoW
*heh heh*.
Cheers,
