Does this model need batteries? I have used it happily for a couple of years (on my iMac desktop and on my ASUS netbook), but now it occasionally says the battery is low. However, I see no way to open it to change a battery! I have searched online and tried to follow several posts with instructions for changing batteries for Targus mini mouse models, but there are different models, and none of the instructions are clearly designated as being for THIS specific model. Does this model even need a battery? If so, how do I open it up to change my batteries?

Question

Accepted Answer

If it's the one in the picture then no it doesn't need a battery. They will operate for about 2 years before the buttons begin to act erratically. If you want to get inside you'll have to pry it apart as I have found no screws holding it together.

I have had 7 of these on 3 systems over the last 4 years. The cost versus the actual life time is worth the expense.
