Does anyone know of a mouse that can be used wireless, with a replaceable battery and that can be connected to the PC via USB-C to recharge the battery? Obtainable in Europe.

The reasoning is that I do not want to get into the situation where I do not have a charged replacement battery at hand and am therefore unable to use the mouse.

Currently I am using a mouse without a replaceable battery which got so old that the battery only holds for 1-2 hours without being connected to the cable.

I know I could simply go with a wired mouse, however, I like the cleanliness of minimal cables on my desk. Thanks for suggestions.

    Unlikely. Reason being manufacturers don’t want to have to account for whatever janky ni-cad or lithium battery the consumer jams in there, or having to tell the difference between the two because they need to be charged differently. Closest you’ll probably get is a mouse that takes AAs and a couple of these or similar. Just leave one in a spare port until you need to change over.

    Amazon link for demonstration purposes only, not an endorsement. Also can’t vouch for that brand.

      Just FYI: There is at least ONE product that has both. See my other comment in the thread if you are interested. 😇
