Hello Everyone-

I have a Magic Mouse, as well as a 2007 Generation (3 AA Battery) Apple Wireless Keyboard (The Aluminium one)

I use rechargable energizer batteries with an energizer charging station. After fully charging the batteries (according to the station) the keyboard and mouse batteries usually register in the high 40 percentile range under the bluetooth message.

If i buy energizer batteries from the store, they register at 100. New duracells register at 40%.

I'm just wondering, is this normal? My old Apple Mighty Mouse did this as well.
Also, would buying Apple's new battery charger with the Apple-Branded batteries fix this?

Thank you.
