[quote author=“gameson”]tifosiv122,

how long before your mouse need to be charged or when LED indicator is blinking red?

my mouse takes about 3 days.  also, when do you charge it?  do you charge it right away when the LED is blinking red? or you wait until the mouse can’t move anymore?  the reason i ask about the charging is that the battery is NiMH, no Li-ion.  Li-ion can be charged anytime, but as i heard (correct me if i m wrong), Ni-Mh or Ni-Cd can’t be charged anytime cause it might actually affect the battery in a negative way (capacity deteriotes faster?)  is that true?

thanks

I don’t use my BT stuff that often…i’d say a total of 3 hours since I got it. My mouse has been charging all this time…

As far as the battery charging stuff goes…I think your talking about memory effect and thats from old-school batteries, I’m not sure if that still applies today. Either way, AA rechargables aren’t that expensive, I wouldn’t worry.

Neither L-ion nor NiMH cells suffer from memory effect. Just NiCads.

There was a review of this mouse in the Oct issue of Maximum PC…here’s what they say:

1. Let’s you write on less-detailed surfaces - Glass for example!
2. More precise
3. Battery lasts 3-4 weeks at normal use
4. Mouse motion felt so smooth, felt like cursor was floating
5. Difficult to go back to another mouse after using mx1000
6. Suitable for gamers - low latency - high precision

BAD: Non-Replaceable battery

Needless to say, I will be purchasing this mouse as soon as I get a chance, this looks like a winner.

would be interesting to know if its usable with the dinovo keyboard

Sure, but its not BT so you would need the RF plugged in as well as the BT.

Amazon.com has it for $64 shipped…just picked it up..expect a review when it arrives.
