Apparently Logitech does have this out now, so I wonder if they patented the "concept" and it will be another 20 years before anyone can do it. Assuming that someone else didn't already do it 20 years ago and that patented already ran out.
Ive seen one at least 10 years ago already. But that didn't exactly charge the mouse, instead the mouse relied on always being on the pad to work.
That's not true. It charges very slowly, about 12 hours to charge a completely dead battery, but it does charge
The bigger problem is that it's expensive af, and since current gen Logitech mice have months of battery life and charge in an hour with the usb cord it's really pointless.
