Apple wireless keyboard - battery life ?

[TheEvilGiraffe]

I've had my iMac for well over a month now and it still says 100% battery for the keyboard.

They keyboard is never switched off, but the computer is mostly used for internetery activities and not much typing (compared to being in an office for instance).

Is this lying, or will this charge last me into the next millennia without changing the batteries !?

How often do you change yours !?

Ta !

:evil:

I've had my iMac for at least 6 months or so (I think!) and my battery is at 15%.

I've only changed the trackpad batteries once too.

Not like the mouse then, that eats batteries for fun.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Oh aye.

Got me a Mobee for the rodent though

If the keyboard lasts for >6 months, it's not worth worrying about I guess

 

[bully]

Once, had the mac 6 months maybe, trackpad is on 2nd set.

My mouse used to eat batteries untill I started turning it off when not in use!

I was going to get one but don't you have to turn it off to charge it?

I dont see why you should have to turn the mouse off at all, my MS wireless mouse used to last about a year between battery changes, the MM lasts 2 months.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Nope, if you do, no one told me. Magical rodent stays on 24/7/365.

In that case I might get one ordered!
