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.

    I have a Logitech MX Master 3s and can really recommend it to you.

    It’s on the expensive side, sure, but for something I use daily it’s worth it for me. It is a really great device!

    It doesn’t have a (easily) replaceable battery tho. I didn’t take a look at how to replace it, but I think it might be as hard, or easier, than with an electric toothbrush or something, if that’s really important to you.

    I can’t even remember when I charged that thing the last time, and I think that’s a good sign for the power consumption. So, even if the battery looses 50% of its capacity over 5-10 years, it will still last for weeks and charge in a very short time, and by that time, it will look so used and disgusting, that you might consider buying a new mouse.

    You can also use it while charging (looking at you, Apple mouse!), and it has an USB-C port that also acts not only for power, but also as signal line if you want.

    It has a Bluetooth-only mode (for connecting multiple PCs), a wireless dongle, and as said a wired connection.
