Does anybody else have a constant problem with a wireless mouse?

Mine is absolutely power-hungry. It's pretty much one AAA -sized battery per a week. I don't understand, why, since my remote controls get 2/3 batteries to last almost a year and I do use them about the same, if not even more...

What kind (meaning brand / model) of mouse is it? How old? I had an old one that I thought ate batteries like popcorn -- but even that wasn't one per week.

Any relatively modern mouse should not do that. You should get weeks to many months. I get a year (more or less) out of my Logitech M705 and it's used a LOT. Maybe yours is sick.

@RealtaReoite This is - ironically enough - "Trust". I would trust this brand that much.

@ZonkeyBalls How about getting a mouse from a real manufacturer? The Logitech ones are pretty cheap and reliable.

I wouldn't "trust" yours ass far as I could throw it.

@RealtaReoite I used to have both Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse and they worked miracles... But then I sold them and even my ASUS has a really awful keyboard, but considering the price of this laptop (199 €, 14", SSD) it's not too shabby. At least I have a big flatty as my external display.
