Low Battery on Wireless Mouse triggers laptop Critical warning shutdown. (lemmy.ca)

First few times I didn't put two and two together because I'm kind of an idiot. I started believing that something was wrong with my laptop battery when it would give me a critical battery shutdown notice while still above 80 percent.

Finally it dawned on me that it wasn't my laptop reaching critical battery, it was my wireless mouse triggering the shutdown notice.

I'm going to go ahead and presume that that's not supposed to be happening, but does anyone know what settings I would go into the change that?

I looked to see if there was options for different devices in the main battery UI, but couldn't find any.

Lmfao! Would be hilarious if you could just plug this mouse into any linux computer and get it to shut down.

Damn Corporate eco-systems ! You are obviously supposed to only use the mouse with a laptop from the same Corp or Partner !
