We've all heard of wireless mice and all of them use large batteries, which means a number  of things.The battery is heavy and they need to be charged pretty often. If you’re using older mice, then you need to plug in AAA batteries into the mouse every couple of months. Now, Genius has launched something slightly unconventional - a battery-less mouse. No, it doesn’t use some kind of wireless power transfer to charge the mouse, but it does have a capacitor in place of a battery. Capacitors can hold some charge and Genius has one, that can stay charged through a day of use. Genius claims that their new DX-ECO mouse can stay charged for a day’s use after which the mouse’s capacitor could do with some charging, which takes no more than 3 minutes.
