Can I use the mouse functions while charging? Can I use normal batteries like AA if the battery is dead?

Yes you can use it while charging, but it can only be charged via USB cord.

Hi, It has built in battery and you can keep using it while it is recharging . single recharge lasts more than 15 Hrs for me :) . No Additional battery is required. .

I always put the mouse on the charger "pad" after I am through using my computer. This way the mouse is always charged and ready for use. I have done this for over two years and I have never had to worry that my mouse isn't ready to go. I doesn't effect the wear on the unit. One of the things that I really like about the "magic charger".

I had the same question (terrible instructions with the mouse). The top front slides off (look for the thumb grip marks) and the compartments for two AAA batteries are revealed. I haven't gotten very good battery life out of this mouse, and you have to move it to wake it (though the sleep doesn't seem to help the batteries live longer).

No, it is wireless only so it will always be running on a single AA battery.So if you are not going to be at a mobile workstation, it's better to use a regular wired mouse to save money on batteries.

unplug when charged. keep the 2 extra charged for next time the mouse or keyboard needs it.

I don't think you can. The USB receiver is matched to the mouse. That is so that other mice or devices can't "see" it and get confused. Looks like you need to just buy a new one. Sorry.

It uses a "AA" battery, it is not included, it can be rechargeable but will not recharge in mouse as there is no constant electrical connection.Wife loves it btw........

Inside the mouse battery compartment is a small wireless receiver that needs to be plugged into the computer's USB port. They seem to have left this important info out of the instructions, but once you do that and put in the batteries, it should work fine (the mouse has an on-off switch on the bottom also).

I'm not a computer person, but I believe that it just plugs into the power source on your laptop to communicate with the mouse. I didn't have to install and software, so should be fine.

The mouse takes one AA battery. The one that comes with the mouse is not rechargeable, but I know you can purchase rechargeable batteries if that's something you wanted!

You can replace the Rechargeable batteries but it will ONLY work with NiMH batteries ! You can however use a microusb cable to hard connect the mouse without the use of batteries.

You can charge with it but it can't tell when the batteries are charged. It will keep on charging until you unplug it. You use the usb cord that came with it.

Both the board and the mouse are powered by AA or AAA batteries...... Insert small plug-in to a usb port on the device you want to use and all software is loaded automatically...To answer your question no there is no on/off switch Hope this answers any questions.....

The mouse came with two AA batteries when I ordered it and I have not had to change them yet (it's only been a couple months) But I would venture to say that it would depend on the brand and quality of the batteries that you choose to use. My mouse came with Energizer Advanced batteries.

I bought this mouse used and it didn't have the batteries, but the mouse seems to work as most wireless devices, so you should get many hours of usage.

Yes you can use a mouse, just jack in the USB and you should get the access to the mouse. I have used it before.

There is No "mouse wheel" function. It would be nice if it did though. Other that that feature it works quite well only potential problem is short battery life. I have to Charge mine like every 3 days. But it still can function while being charged.
