Caris Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 If i put a bigger rechargeable battery in that came with it? It's a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000. It comes with a Sanyo Ni-MH 2100mHa Battery. I want to put a 2500mAh one in or mabey bigger. Will it be sweet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 It'll either: 1, Work 2, Not work and do nothing 3, Not work and blow a circuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caris Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 Bah, not worth it. I get a week out of it without turning it off so i'll live with it. Ta very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Wow, I hadnt even thought about shit like this, Ive got a wireless Microsoft mouse and have bunged any old batteries in it (literally about 4 or 5 types) and they've all worked if that helps. None were rechargable ones though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackster Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Don't hold me to this but as far as I know mAh is just the amount of charge the battery holds, not the amount it will supply at any one time. I think it's kinda like a tap and a water tank. You can have a tap connected to a 2 litre water tank, but then if you swap the 2 litre tank for a 2.5 litre tank but use the same tap then you'll be able to store more water but it'll be the same speed the water comes out at. So I don't *think* it will fry your mouse. I've used 2500mAh batteries in a digital camera and various other things and it didn't fry them. Although if it really matters that much maybe you should just get a more efficient mouse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rummy Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I'm with Jackster, I'm pretty sure it just refers to charge and charging the battery, it doesn't affect the battery's power levels. How does the battery recharge? That might affect things. As long as the new battery you get is the same voltage, it should be fine. Of course, I don't wanna be held responsible, and there's a chance I'm wrong(but I doubt it, cos you can get AA batteries in all kinds of mAh).

Raining_again Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Milliamp hours. This is the capacity of your batteries. The larger the number, the longer it will provide power, assuming the same electronics and/or motor. Personally I wouldn't try it, if its an old mouse maybe, but at the end of the day if it fries you don't get a refund due to the fact you'll have invalidated the warantee. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirtynine. Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 It will make no differnce from my experience. My mouse came with some shitty rechageable batterys so i bought some duracell those got lost so i got some other ones MaH does not change the amount of power getting to the mouse, its just how long they live for without another charge, just becareful when charging them to use the right charger. If its tool low of a charge then they wont charge properly and if its too high you get a nice pop sound and acid everywhere Although, do it at your own risk I dont want to get raped for telling you to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caris Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Just a AA rechargeable. And it comes with a dock to charge it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Milliamp hours. This is the capacity of your batteries.

MoogleViper Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 As long as the power output is the same and you use the correct charger than it should be fine. But don't hold me to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
