    The idea for a charging pad for your wireless mouse is great. The Mobee system is easy to setup. It has some drawbacks dough. First, the battery life for their rechargeable battery is really short, they could have done something better. And secondly, the construction of the devise is very cheap for what you pay. Knock off $20 bucks and you are at the right spot.

    Great Concept - Poor Quality

    Poor instructions and broken cable! The set up instructions printed on the box and those on Mobee's web site are meager and misleading. The box shows an illustration of the USB plugged into what appears to be a keyboard, and the web site states use "any USB port". NOT TRUE! After charging my Magic Mouse for 18 hrs and no full charge indicated, I logged into Mobee's FAQ page to read that the charger needs a full powered USB port such as what's on the computer and not the one a Mac keyboard. While unplugging from my keyboard, the cable separated from the USB plug. Currently, I'm disappointed and awaiting what Mobee does about my request for a replacement USB cable.

    I got mine, clasp would not stay closed. Need to redesign with just a few minor adjustments! Will try again if they redesign it!

    Pure Junk

    First thing I did was plug the USB End into a iPod charger. It took 30+ hours to charge. Once charged it works till the battery starts to drain down. Once that happens it will disconnect at times.

    After about a month I found out the charge will not last very long at all. Must charge it every day or two. Lots of hassle. Forget to charge it then have fun replacing it with batteries as the cover is flimsy.

    Worse 40.00 I've ever spent. In the trash it went.

    Works great, never bother with batteries again!

    I was hesitant when I read some of the less than optimal reviews but I went for it and picked this up. I love it, it installed easily and charges as advertised. Now I never experience the "disconect / connect" loop and the mouse is always ready to go.

    Awesome!

    Horrible product and troubleshooting thru Mobee

    • Written by from NANAIMO

    12 of 17 people found this useful

    First off, after the battery pack was fully charged, I tried using my mouse to find out that it won't even turn on. I tried several times replacing the battery pack, but to no avail. One of the worst parts is that the battery pack gets jammed into the mouse, and I had to use a tool to pry it out (being careful not to damage our beautiful mouse). Definitely not ready to be sold until all the bugs are worked out.

    Good idea, bad execution

    I agree with the review that it's a flop. I'm having same problem. I will now have to drive all the way to an apple store to have them safely remove the charger from magic mouse because I can no longer use the mouse. This is a product that is not yet ready for production. Needs more testing. It's horrible. I shouldn't have so much trouble. Also, try adding better instructions and trouble shooting to your packaging if you are going to have a product that doesn't work out of the box.

    I was fortunate to get one of these in Europe and I LOVE it!!

    Great Charging solution.... worth the cost....and it's very cool looking too! Kudos to Apple for bringing another cool product to the masses!

    I was very disappointed when I received mine. Didn't charge thru usb to computer or usb the wall outlet. So don't waste your time, nice concept though. So glad I was able to return it.

    Full charge was holding fine for first few weeks, but now (after about 2 months of use) I need to charge it every second or third day.

    Incredible

    My magic mouse is my constant companion in work and play. My Mobee kit arrived yesterday. There was no problem in installing it - just make sure the black button clips onto the battery pack! It's easy. The lighter battery pack has improved the feel of the mouse, but what I can't understand, and am thrilled about, is that the tracking consistency and feel of the pointer movement seems to be more accurate and consistent than with regular rechargeable AA batteries. And Jitouch and BetterTouchTool (true Magic Mouse connoisseurs will know) no longer seem to conflict when it comes to taps! And leaving it on the charging matt to recharge (with my Iphone 4 wall charger adapter!) overnight worked perfectly. Great product.

    Works as advertised, integrated design

    I have had the device for several months now. The battery pack it comes with keeps its charge for a long period of time (I have yet to manage to exhaust it). The charger is unobtrusive on the desktop and integrates well with the mouse in it's look. I would recommend this device.

    Brilliant - initial install fiddely

    this product has a real good apple like quality to it the docking station looks great and the battery pack has the same finish as the original battery housing. However this product has its flaws. It did not work for me straight out of the tin. To note my magic mouse was also brand new. The problem lies with the battery it charges fine when on the dock but the connectors don't match up to the mouse so no power to the mouse or green light. I solved this issue by bending the solo connector down a bit, it points up. that simple put battery back in and it worked.

    It just does NOT work at all. It turns off the mouse unexpectedly. You have to turn it physically off and on in order to work a few more minutes. It seems that it does not fit well in the Apple Magic Mouse (that is the best mouse I ever had working with AA BATTERIES) So disappointed!! I want my money back!!!

    I purchased this as soon as I heard of it and it was still relatively new, I have had no problems with this at all, it just works and works well.
    Easy to install and then forget all about it, very, very handy!

    Good product and it was a smart purchase for me personally.

    I would recommend this to anyone.

    Mobee charger

    • Written by from Citrus Heights

    6 of 7 people found this useful

    Nice charger, I did notice one thing however, when removing the Alkaline batteries to install new Mobee battery pack, the pack had approx. 53% of charge on them. To my understanding, rechargeables retain "memory" I let the battery pack get down to approx. 3% before recharging them. I've had my charger for awhile now. No issues.
    Works great!

    Not for me

    • Written by from Palm Springs

    I received this for Christmas as a gift. Both my wife and I thought it was a great idea to help save the environment from more land fill of alkaline batteries.
    My first impression was it is heavier than using the AA batteries. You have to turn it off and on to get the correct battery level in the System Preferences and it is still not correct, it never reaches 100%. It is not easy to install or remove from the back. Maybe because of the weight. I am sorry but I think this product although a good idea is not for me. Too many issues for the benefits.

    Not sure why there are ANY negative reviews on this product as i have 3 of these units and each does exactly what it is supposed to do without any issues. I have owned them for at least a year and would never go back to using a mouse with batteries
