How can you tell when your computer mouse needs to be cleaned?

The short answer is when it is dirty. This can apply to both mechanical and optical mice. If looking at the bottom of the mouse you can see dust in the hole or on the ball, it won't hurt to clean it out.

The long answer is that when your mouse cursor jumps around on the screen or refuses to move at all, you should check the mouse.

Only mechanical mice are likely to ever need a cleaning, unless your computer's environment is exceptionally dusty or dirty. A mechanical mouse can generally be identified by the ball that can be seen partially protruding from it's bottom. This ball, which is generally made from a synthetic rubber, can get sticky with age. That stickiness will then pick up grit, dust or lint in normal usage, and then in turn stick what has been picked up onto the rods or rollers inside the mouse, eventually causing the mouse to function as described.

If you have an optical mouse, the hole in the bottom of the mouse will be unobstructed, and generally have a very small, visible laser light shining through it. You can clean most optical mice by blowing a little dry air to dislodge any accumulated dust or dirt. (Hot breath not such a good idea nor are fingers, canned air is a better choice, and a clean cotton swab if required.)

IBM support recommended replacing a ball that had become sticky all the way back in the '80s; now a more practical solution is to replace your mechanical mouse with a new optical mouse. You can find them on-line for less than $5 with shipping these days.

Compare optical mouse and trackball mouse?

i love my cordless logitech optical mouse it works so much better than any trackball. For those with a long memory the trackball mouse came first, required a mousepad for grip and needed cleaning frequently.

Can you use a rechargeable NiMH battery in a wireless mouse?

yes

You can use a NiMH battery in just about any application you would use a normal alkaline battery. However, NiMH batteries do not perform well in low energy applications - they are designed for use in high energy devices like digital cameras. For things like clocks, standard alkaline batteries are better suited.

In my personal experience, the NiMH and NiCd batteries did not perform as well in my wireless LASER mouse. Alkaline batteries performed a whole lot better. The problem is that NiMH and NiCd have relatively high "self discharge" rates; that is, while they are not in use, they will loose their charge over a fairly short time as opposed to alkaline batteries which loose their charge at a much smaller rate and over a much, much longer period. Also of consideration is the fact that rechargeables (NiMH & NiCd) produce 1.2v at full charge (NiMH can achieve 1.4v, but for very short time) whereas alkaline batteries are 1.5v. This 0.3v can be a problem with some electronic devices. 9V rechargeables only deliver 7.2v.
