Does the mouse get power from a batteries? If not then what? Where does the keyboard get power from?

There's two sets of batteries. Mouse is 2 AA and Keyboard is 2 AAA. I've had my original set for about 2 years. I've replaced the batteries once. I bought a backup set (just in case anything broke) and they're still in the box. I seriously suggest this combo.

Both Mouse and keyboard get power from batteries. The USB dongle connects both keyboard and mouse to computer but does not provide power.

Yes. The keyboard has 2 batteries (AAA I think?) and the mouse as well. They seem to go a LONG time before needing to be replaced.

The mouse gets its power from the batteries you insert in it. The wireless keyboard gets its power from the batteries and tower. You have to insert a small wireless USB plug into tower.

The mouse has 2-AA batteries, the keyboard has 2-AAA batteries. Both are connected to the computer with 1 USB wireless device.

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........

The USB connector works for both the mouse and the keyboard. Also get ready to change batteries on the mouse a LOT...the keyboard hasn't needed much battery change but the mouse stays on all the time.. it sleeps sometimes but not enough to save the battery. I would probably get a set with an on and off switch but this set does the job for little money.

No, there's one USB plug that works both the mouse and keyboard. It clips to the back of the mouse when you're not using it.

Yes it includes the keyboard. The batteries are preinstalled rechargeables, and my wife has never had issues with them losing power.

It comes with a battery but not mouse. You will have to purchase a mouse seperately.

It comes with a battery, and you use a touch pad w/ your fingers. Easy to get used to if you have always used a mouse before. I love mine!

Its powered by the USB. It's a midi keyboard controller, meaning it connects to the PC and it uses ignite software. No actual software in the keyboard itself.

You do get a mouse, AC charger, Ethernet adapter and a few other things, but I'm not sure what an "external battery" is, you only get the battery in the laptop. Great little computer.

I believe the battery is for the keyboard. All I know is that I charge mine without taking anything out. Hope this helps.

If it is a direct wired mouse you don't recharge it. It plugs into the back of the computer. If it is a wireless mouse you have to change the batteries.

With moderate to heavy use, I get at least 5 or 6 days out of the mouse before I recharge it. The keyboard will go two weeks or more. Both would surely last much longer if I turned them off when I'm not using them; but I don't. Recharging takes about 20 minutes using the supplied usb cable.

The keyboard that comes with it is wireless and it doesn't come with a mouse (they think you should use the touchscreen only). I bought a wireless keyboard and mouse for less than $30, they came as a set and use only 1 USB port for the both of them.

Only the mouse can be plugged in for recharging. The keyboard batteries last a long time. I replaced them maybe every two years.

No batteries on mine. No power cord, either. It connects to the computer with the USB and that's how it gets its power.

I don't have it in front of me, but I never turn it off. Hasn't drained the battery in a few months either. I don't even turn off the mouse. I speculate that it put the devices in some sort of power standby. I don't remember seeing a way to turn the keyboard off.
