No, but 1 per week will add up.

I have a Microsoft Mouse 5000 and it takes a new set of batteries every
three weeks - give or take.
For some reason those expensive Lithium batteries don't make a

I might get a set of rechargables AAA's though...

Why? Are batteries that expensive where you live? :)

I use mine every day for about 4 hours and change batteries about once a
month.
