Does such a thing exist, a wireless mouse with wireless charging mousepad? I'd expect it wouldn't work because the coils would need to be aligned to charge.

[-] CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

No such thing exists to my knowledge no, but it could have back when the apple mouse was first introduced.

I have used a lot of wireless chargers (old phone usb port failed) and.. the coil of the charger is typically the least of the problem, the charging coil on the device not matching up with it is usually the bigger issue.

But mice need basically no charge daily, and a mouse largely confined to a set area would, if well designed, always be on the useable charger space, so any mousepad with a trickle charge worth of capability would be plenty.

Who knew?

Thats neat though, one of my friends was saying how nice it would be for lab cord management, but not for that price lol

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 day ago

Lol you can complain about the US price of $89.99, but the NZD price is $289.95, which is about $174USD!

[-] CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but then you don't live in the US which automatically makes the price tag worth it ๐Ÿ˜

I have a couple of these and it's pretty nice just not worrying about charging the mouse. Logitech used micro-USB for whatever reason, but it doesn't really matter when you never interact with the cable.

Do you have the powerplay 1?

This local site has two 1 star reviews because the powerplay 2 got worse and requires you to plug in a dongle and the mouse pad so your mouse now uses two ports when a wired one uses just one ๐Ÿ˜†
