Default new mouse time yet again...dohh

my Logitech® MX™1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

is on its way out after only 9 months use

wont hold a full charge even after a six hour charge..

cleaned all the terminals on charger and mouse ..

but goes down to level two on the led indicator after only 20 mins use..

SO HOPELESS FOR PLAYING ONLINE GAMES ..

dont like wired mouses ...

but seen one of these on overclockers that has a twin “hot-swappable” Li-ion battery pack that recharges while you use ..

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=KB-070-LG

ideas ..??? anybody got one of the above ....

my mouse except mines lazer and lights up

i play online games mate
really no need to have a mouse with loads of buttons

exactly what do you use your mouse for

i dont see the point spending mega amounts on mouses

ive had this one 3 years now and still no probs

dont bother with wireless for playing games as it will kill the batteries as your using the mouse more

just get a usb cable mouse as it will respond quicker aswell for the gaming
