[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1100307, member: 8287"] That is a good point about the Rechargeable's and the Percentage reported by OSX. I charged up a set of Everedy Energizer NIMH's that I use in my Logitech MX900 and my Canon A590 and tried them in my Magic Mouse. I got 80% or so while a even slightly used set of normal Non Rechargeable Energizers were still at 100%. A quick check with a Voltmeter shows why. 1.55+ volts for the normal batteries and 1.3 or less for a fully charges set of NIMH. People on the Canon forums were blaming their Canon cameras for lower percentage with NIMH. Well the voltage IS lower but they last a long time and keep that voltage till the very end. Then of course you can recharge them over and over and save $$$. [/QUOTE]
