Modern mouse that uses AA batteries?

G305 lightspeed is my favourite one!

Performance is about the same otherwise. I had a G305, went to the G703 as an "upgrade", then went back to the G305 because I got tired of having to charge it every 4 days.

Rechargeable Lipos, though?

Since posting this, I bought a G305. It's a good little mouse, if you like the form factor. AA, so no idea why I thought Lipo. Battery has been fine, but it's only been a couple of months.

One I know of is the Razer Orochi V2. Accepts either AA or AAA (yes, has slots for both) as a curious way of letting the user choose between weights as it's targeted to gamers.
Not familiar with what switches it uses but things like double click issues are typically a switch issue from what I've read and switches can be rather easily replaced in mice generally.
Riverman:
The Logitech M705 Marathon Mouse has been a favorite of mine for years. It can run off of one or two AA batteries, and the battery life is ridiculously long, hence the name. I also like the M560, which runs on a single AA, and the M510, which can also use one or two AAs. Last I checked, AA powered mice make up most of Logitech's wireless lineup, and rechargeable ones are only at the high end.

How long, approximately, is the battery life on one AA cell vs. two AA cells?
