More of an $$$ gadget than useful
I bought 2 of these units for our iMacs. The initial install was OK and the unit worked. The specs said that it works up to 6 da ys without a recharge, so I decided to push it and see how long it goes. After 4 days, the Mac battery level was reading 9%, so I decided to charge it. The first overnight charge was OK, back to 100% and the light on the charger was solid green. The 2nd (and subsequent) charges worked, but the green flashing light did not go solid.
My test was to turn off the mouse and let it charge. It worked and the green light went solid after a night charge. When the mouse is left on (on/off switch), then the charger thinks it's not fully charged and keeps flashing.
A few things to remember:
- The unit comes with a USB cable for charging, but no charger. They assume that you will use your Mac or laptop to charge it. If your Mac goes to sleep, the port goes dead and you can not charge the unit. You need an external power supply such as iPhone charger.
- Rechargeable batteries are 1.25 volts rather than 1.5 volts of a AA battery, so your battery gauge on the Mac is inaccurate.
- Since the unit uses electronics for charging, your battery is even smaller and has less of a lifetime than 2 AA rechargeables. I recommend charging every other night to be safe.
Their tech support says that it's working the way it should, and if I turn off the mouse while charging, or take the battery back out and leave it on the charger by itself (their suggestion) the light goes to solid green but if I leave the mouse on, the light keeps flashing. I personally don't know anyone who turns off their mouse or takes the batteries out every night. …- Written by Sean A from Escondido

Works great when it works. When it doesn't, contact Mobee.
I had my Mobee Charger since it was released (about 6-7 weeks). Initially, it worked great. It would charge without issues and my Magic Mouse stayed connected. At about 4 weeks, I started having issues with the mouse disconnecting. This problem became more frequent until then it would not even charge correctly. I contacted Mobee and they agreed that I had a defective product. They promptly replaced it (kudos to them), and so far it has worked well for the past week or so. Let's hope I just got unlucky and that this replacement will continue to work well. …

Save money; save the planet
WELL, bought this after running down the batteries on my Magic Mouse AGAIN after a long period of document copy editing and review ing. After reading all the reviews for the Mobee charger, I did buy the thing with not a little trepidation, but thought I should at least give it a go.
The kit is stylish (with clear plastic wrapping around each item in the box, a la Apple), and suits all the other Apple trinkets on my desk. The battery pack slotted easily into the Magic Mouse, and there was enough charge to start using it straight away. I've been using it for a few days, now, and the Mobee actually seems to work well. I've had no issues around pairing, and so far it just seems like...well, a normal Magic Mouse.
So far, very happy with the Mobee, and would recommend others to give it a go. …- Written by Ian H from Bingley

Hopeless...can't keep a connection
This product's aim is commendable and the build quality is first class. However, if you use your Mac regularly you'll tear your ha ir out (if you have any of course) and your blood pressure will go through the roof because it loses it's connection almost every few minutes. Back to store for me I'm afraid until I hear they have addressed the problem. …
