Wireless inductive charing mice & wireless keyboard


Recommended Posts

I am in the market for a wireless (bluetooth or other) mouse that uses inductive charging, what brands and or mice would be good? Second any good multimedia keyboards that are also wireless? Bluetooth or receiver needs to be in the USB port. I absolutely want multimedia keys. Ideas?

If you are going for mechanical keyboards, they are mostly all wired, except for the lower-class cheap ones.

 

All self-charging mice has usually a dock that is wired, so it really isn't feasable.

 

Now, if you are looking for something that uses USB dongles, look at a Logitech wireless mouse. They run great on just one AA battery. Mine lasts 3 months, under heavy usage.

 

I used to have a wireless keyboard, but I have since moved to a Razer BlackWidow Chroma v2.

Look at the G703/G903 and Logitech G Powerplay mat. Amazon has them.

 

I had a wireless rechargeable mouse a while ago, they're pretty gimmicky, but if that's what you want, Logitech does a good job.

Yes, but the mouse pad is wired, so, that would defeat the purpose, Adrynalyne....

What do you mean defeat the purpose? You have to supply power one way or another in order to charge the device. I mean, how else would you charge a rechargeable mouse?

I though he meant inductive as 100% wireless, not something that has wires attached... No?

No it doesn’t? You don’t get inductive charging without something being plugged in somewhere. Electricity from nothing doesn’t exist.

I more am tired of not knowing the battery level of my MX Master, and it suddenly stops "working", I ('d) figure an inductive charging mouse probably wouldn't have that problem. I am using Linux Mint 19 with Cinnamon if that makes any difference to knowing the battery life of my mouse or suggestions for keyboards/mice.

If its company/Mint has its own software, yes, Otherwise, no, there is no built in software that can detect mouse battery.

 

I'm using a Logitech M317 right now. And I love it. Fits to my small hands well. Bettery life Is about 3 months on a single AA battery. I always keep batteries handy. It's really not that hard to change them.

 

I have its dongle connected to my Razer BlackWidow Chroma V2. With USB pass-through.

 

Look at Logitech, they have some very good mice/keyboards/headsets.

It would seem, yeah. All others are pretty much wired...
