040901 - On 090616 purchased wireless/cordless mouse for c16. ref SDS 1 4V6F
040902 -
040903 - Later on 090623, cancelled the order for c16, ref SDS 2 0274, and
040904 - eventually placed an order for another computer. ref SDS 3 294M
040906 -  ..
040907 - Turned out that the wireless mouse worked well on c15, and now works
040908 - on c16, since it was received and configured by Fry's on 090715.
040909 - ref SDS 4 2871
040911 -  ..
040912 - The mouse uses AAA batteries, and the charge is said to last 9 days,
040913 - but we are lucky to get 3 or 4 days use.  Initially purchased 30 or
040914 - so standard batteries.  This is not effective, because we need a
040915 - constant charge for efficient use.  When the batter begins to lose
040916 - efficiency this occurs gradually, and frustrates efficiency.
040918 -  ..
040919 - Today, tried a solution with rechargable batteries.
040921 -  ..
040922 - Went to Fry's and paid $20 for 10 recharbable batteries, and another
040923 - $20 for Ultralast recharging equipment that works by plugging into the
040924 - wall outlet or to a USB port on the computer.

040926 -        [On 090729 2054 purchased Targus Bluetooth wireless mouse that
040927 -        does not require USB port receiver. ref SDS 5 EJ5N
040929 -  ..
040930 - By recharging regularly, and swapping out batteries each day, hope to
040931 - maintain constant charge for efficient use of the mouse.

041301 - Began test to see how long it takes to charge 2 batteries connected to
041302 - c16 USB port, and how long to charge 4 batteries connected to a
041303 - standard 110 wall outlet.
041305 -  ..
041306 - Problem using Ultralast recharging unit.  The red light that signals
041307 - charging, never turns to green, showing the batteries are charged.
041308 - After 24 hours, the light was still red.  Ultralast product literature
041309 - says not to overcharge batteries.  This guidance cannot be implemented
041310 - without a green light that signals when batteries have completed
041311 - charging.
