That will last longer than one year.
I am now on my fourth wireless mouse, I don't do anything to kill them, they just stop working. It does get a lot of use every day
I've had:
One stuck on fast forward scroll (even after hoovering it out)
One just not work any more after it needed a new battery
One had all the rubber come off the wheel & get stuck inside & nothing could shift the rubber even hoovering, & trying to dig it out with needles
One kept dropping out so worked then did not work then worked again
I have had cheap one £9.99, one at £30, one at £60 (thought a expensive one might be better) £20
I've had Microsoft, logitech x 2, & trust
Anyone know of a industrial Strength Wireless Mouse that does not cost the earth?
Thank You

I would get a wired one, and an extension USB cable.
Why wireless ? My three year old mini mouse gets more abuse than you could imagine and it cost 7.994.8kWp 12x400W Longhi 9.6 kWh battery Giv-hy 5.0 Inverter, WSW facing Essex . Aint no sunshine ☀️ Octopus gas fixed dec 24 @ 5.74 tracker again+ Octopus Intelligent Flux leccy0 -
I've been using a wireless one because I am on a laptop on a lap desk & thought I would get the wire all caught up, but if they would last longer than a year I'm willing to give it a try

Blimey, what you doing with them - I've had a couple of Logitechs for a lot of years now (M180 - occasional use, and M305 - used a lot)0

You would think I was miss treating them wouldn't you! But nope it just sits on the plastic section of the lap desk, never spilt anything on any of them
I guess I should try a wired one & see if that lasts any longer then
