Do you have an MX1000 which re-charges?

[DR]

So lets set the scene - you use it all day and night - it goes flat you forgot to dock it ....

I have fixed the problem - I never dock mine, I'm rubbish at it - I also use it all day and most evenings.

The fix? Simple....















I realised I had 2 when sorting the office (I had one then got another one painted... so I thought why not have one always charged

[blueball]

A neat fix if you happen to have two - otherwise a tadge expensive. Very ingenious none the less well done

[chuckskull]

Yeah I do that all the time, last time right in the middle of a BF2 session

I dont have a spare one though

[leeglf]

i thought of a great idea for a wireless mouse.

you could have some sort of power cable that connects to the mouse while you are using it keeping it charged all the time and also has the added benefit of stopping you losing your mouse!

what do you think of my idea? i cant believe no one has thought of it before

[dave87]

Didn't Microsoft do it for the 360?

Nah, good idea, just hasn't been demanded by the public

The other option, of course, is to use the trackpad on a laptop to do it, should you forget to charge the mouse. Works rather well for me

thanks god for my G7, spare battery always charged.

although a total bummer the other night in 2142 when i was pilot and didnt spot the red flashing light that must have been going off for at least 10 mins :|
picked up a few tk punishes then

i must remap the teamspeak so i can yell bail without a mouse !

Wired ftw tbh

I do this with my wireless headphones; I bought a second pair for a relative, they didn't need them in the end, so I kept them.

Nooo - me luffs wireless

I must admit I prefer the lack of a wire with my MX1000, especially with my cluttered desk

I have a rechargable Logitech mouse and its never gone flat...guessing I don't use it as much as you lot as its at home so only evening and weekends.

[dave87]

Mines gone flat - but it was after 3 weeks of reasonably intense use (CS:S C&C Generals, plus normal every day use)

I do something similar but not as expensive.

My MX700 uses AA batteries and I keep some of the rechargables I've got spare and always on charge so when it starts to flash red, I simply remove the bottom, swap batteries and then put the old ones in the USB charger and away they go.

Simple and effective
