    You should be able to find the Logitech M185 for around £10 or less.

    Cracking the motherboard in a laptop because you keep forgetting to unplug a mouse is not very MSE.

    Blowing a USB socket from plugging and unplugging a mouse is not very MSE.

    Being rejected for a promotion because you are a slouch-necked hunchback from trying to use a trackpad on a laptop is not very MSE.

    Being rejected in love because you are ibid.

    Being treated for carpal tunnel and being off work on sickness is not very MSE.

    Where was laptop mentioned ?
    Does a wireless mouse stop carpal tunnel syndrome rather than a wired mouse ?
    huh ?
    Edit: ibid is missing L prefix and O suffix

    I have a Logitech M525 and find it very good. There is an on/off button to save batteries when not in use, I don't know if this is standard on all wireless mice(?) as this is my 1st one.

    I'm using and liking my Tecknet mouse (no I hadn't heard of them either) for only a tenner delivered on Amazon...

    I'll take the battery life with a pinch of salt, because it depends on usage and battery brand.

    When used with a laptop it can. (Might not be carpal specifically, though. Could be a different rsi.) Unless you have a very long cable. Wireless allows you to have your mouse and keyboard down by your thighs.

    But it's mainly not eating up a USB socket that is the advantage.
