Anyone know if the kit 002 mouse is normal bluetooth, and if so - how to set it to pairing? I don’t want that dongle in a USB-C adapter on my macbook…
It’s only 2.4G. No bluetooth sadly.
Dang. But 2.4G what? If memory serves me BT is also 2.4GHz…
Edit: google was my friend for that topic

True, but you can’t use it that way, it will only work with the dongle.
So I have a Mac with USB-C ports and bought two of these kits. Disappointing that it doesn’t support bluetooth and doesn’t support Mac computers even though it says it does because the dongle is USB-A. I don’t think any Mac computers ship with USB-A ports. They really should make that clear.

Same here and I totally agree. This is a scam. They should immediately remove compatibility with iOS.
Really, its gonna be easier and far superior to take apart an existing mouse and design your own ergonomic cover.

It does work just fine on MacOS with a USB A to C adapter, the problem is that (for a laptop) the protrusion ends up fragile (and ugly). At the least you should use an adapter with a short piece of cable between the connectors. But a true USB C option would be much nicer
Thank you for clarifying. I’m glad it can work somehow. I don’t use Mac and I made this for someone who does.
FWIW I just did some research on the 2.4G receiver used with Bambu’s mouse kit. I would love to have a USB C receiver instead of an adapter contraption, and apart from that I can’t even find the original receiver now (and before you ask, unfortunately it doesn’t sit in its pocket near the battery), so it’s bricked for the moment. Super tiny devices are really cool until this happens, lol.
2.4G mouse isn’t a standard. It basically only means there’s some lightweight protocol over 2.4 GHz and each manufacturer has (or may have) their own implementation. Your best bet is the kit uses some OEM components of known origin, which may open up for a solution.
Also, some variants can be paired, others are pre-paired and can’t be paired with anything else - not even another identical receiver.
The bad news - provided my google-fu plus some ChatGPT conversion ended up correct - is that Bambu’s mouse kit is not only of unknown origin but also pre-paired. My usual luck.
so can i pair it with a difernt dongle
Apparently not. They are ”hard” paired from factory
