Batteries are critical on led. Docking station will only charge a few seconds and stays stuck with three green led's on. How can I change the batteries?
How can you open up mouse to replace the batteries?
The following is what I ended up doing
Pretty much I cannibalized a pack of battery charging adapter plates, soldered the three wires to them, trimmed & bent them a little.. and then epoxied them down to the battery hold-down in their appropriate places. A little trimming was done on the plastic so the contacts could reach in far enough without obstruction.
After having the mouse sit around useless without a working battery in it.. for months, which definitely irritated me... I looked up 3.7V li-ion batteries and came across the "klic-5001 battery" (google it) and ordered two. The first one I destroyed trying to solder the wires directly to the battery contacts.. which just ruined all the internal li-ion battery components(i.e. DO NOT TRY DOING THAT)... the second battery, which I never tampered with whatsoever, is connected to the mouse via the contacts I described above. The klic-5001 batteries by the way do fit very well in the hold-down meant for theLaser Mouse MX 1000 By logitech - bdf15a1.jpgattery.
End result: one, exceptionally well working MX1000 mouse which I can replace the rechargeable battery inside anytime it begins to get to aged and not working so well... ^_^ It charges as normal and the battery monitoring works like nothing ever changed.
I replaced the rechargeable battery as well but soon afterwards, the charging problems (all of that mentioned on this site) reoccurred. The charger tested A-OK voltage, I will again clean contacts & lightly sand them but fear this is internal charger circuitry gone OLD. New Logitech using AAs on its way to either replace or backup this jewel I love.
I will admit that over the years I have had to replace my above mentioned battery 2 times since then... but I am, strangely, still using the very same MX1000 mouse as shown in the pics. As of now, the battery appears to discharge rather rapidly(down to red within a week), but it still keeps running on red for many days. Gotta admit, since I first took it apart I seem to have lost my left-right-lean clicking of the scroll wheel, and haven't figured out how to resolve that(it's been apart quite a few times). I am still leery of the direct-soldering method shown in the vk2k method.... but they likely have superior soldering skills to me :)

On ebay, there is an online store (the battery source) that sell a direct plug in battery.
This is a 3.7v 2000mAh Li-Ion with the pigtail installed and it is listed as a direct replacement for the MX 1000 for $16.00 plus $5.00 shipping.

Battery number CS-LB2RC listed as replacing the L-LB2
My old Nokia cell phone battery is 3.7V, three pin connector... with JB weld to hold it together might just work...
For those with an MX1000---search on eBay for a Kodak FLIC-5001 battery. I paid $3.99 for mine. It is a 3.7V 1800mAH battery which is a bit more powerful than the stock battery that was supplied with the MX1000. This battery works very well but you would need to solder the three wires to it (from the old battery). This is not difficult for someone who owns a soldering iron. I have this Kodak battery installed in my MX1000 and it works perfectly.
Battery replacement is quite easy. I have posted a step by step YouTube video that I found above. Here is a site that sells the replacement batteries for the Logitech MX1000 mouse.
Replacement Battery for Logitech MX1000 Mouse
A compilation of the above worked for me... esp. http://www.vk2k.com/Logitech-MX1000-Battery/ Got the Kodak Klik battery for 6 bucks on eBay. Soldering instructions at http://www.aaroncake.net/electronics/solder.htm Soldering the wires to the battery was easier than retrofitting other leads as it involved much less finagling of parts and, so long as heat to the terminals is kept under two seconds, works just fine with a small gage solder and iron.

These directions are exactly what you need...I don't know what I did when disassembling mine that caused the on/off switch not to work so hot (or at all) once I put it back together...maybe I lost a piece or something but upon re-assembly I couldn't ever get the switch to the "On" position and thus the mouse wouldn't work.
I ended up leaving the plastic On/Off button out of the final product, which leaves the switch in the very helpful "On" position...you can gently stick a really small flathead into the switch to change back and forth between On & Off, its really quite difficult to see.

I, too, have an MX1000 Laser mouse. The mouse has been great until a few days ago and the battery started draining rapidly. Recharing it to full status takes just a few minutes but drains in a couple of hours. Logitech's website says the batteries aren't consumer-replaceable.

After about a week of use and faithfully charging the mouse when not in use It started indicating critical battery. When it was put back in the charger it went to full charge status in a matter of seconds and then as soon as I started using it again the battery condition went back to critical. Now it won't charge at all.
same problem as everyone else batterys are die well almost and need to be replaced the web site says it can not be done how ever I know it can with the right batterys
how do I open the mouse to change the battery
The cordless mouse that came with my Logitech S510 keyboard does not work and shows no light. I figure the problem is that it has a battery that needs replacing it but I have not been able to find a way to open the mouse to replace it.
Please give me instruction to replace battery. Â LOOKS like a lot of folks need that info. Â Why not package the mouse with that basic instruction.
Thanks, [email protected],
