Wireless Mouse Batteries

[jjandellis]

Do wireless mice abso drain batteries??

I've got a Microsoft jobbie and literally as soon as I bang in new batts, I get messages telling em its running low...even if they're duracells...

Is this normal??

Should last months imo.

Sounds busto to me, mine last about 1 month+, and I use it all the time.

Defo something wrong with the mouse, should last quite a while. I have had mine over a year and had only changed batteries twice

i cant remember when i last changed the batteries in my mouse.

I threw a logitech one at the wall and a new batt lasted about 4 days after that.

Still using £5 USB wired mice, just too tilting when the batteries go in the middle of a session and obv wouldn't have the forethought to stock up on batteries
