Your linked video says:

> 2 minutes of charging will power the magic mouse for 9 hours

This seems in contradiction with what the article says:

> Now. If the mouse had ultracaps instead of batteries, it would charge in seconds, and none of this would be an issue. But it doesn’t. It has batteries. And they charge very slowly. I checked: I plugged it into my mac, and watched the charge indication. It. rises.. very… slowly….

No contradiction. It _does_ charge slowly, but charging for 2 minutes will still power it for a few hours. A full charge takes 2-3 hours, but lasts for a month or more (depending on usage).
