i just bought as logitech cordless mouse, and my question is, does it turn off by itself when its not active?, to save batterie power or do i have to turn it off manualy?

I have a cordless Logitech as well. It must have a sleep mode or something that kicks on after a bit, otherwise the batteries wouldn't last too long. I do have two valuable words for you though:

Rechargeable batteries.

Lats up to 8 months. Mine said something like that, but that's people who are on their pc's like 5 minutes/day.

Realistically I change mine about every month or so.

With mine,when I leave it eventually the led starts flashing really quickly, then eventually it goes to a slower flash, then the slowest flash to save power.

LOL I sure hope they have improved my old logitec cordless has lasted about a week or less on one set of batteries...

Ah they don't work for old people like me , I'd be constantly putting it in my coat pocket along with the car keys . How far does the mouse really move anyway ? Bet it sucks for games ?

I have a logitech MX 700 and its a rechargable battery. I got it like 1 year ago and im still using the batteries that came with it and recharging them.

Its also great for games. No lag
