Mouse Jiggler, Mechanical 100% Undetectable by IT, Mouse Mover with On/Off Switch, Simulates Mouse Movement and Prevents Computer from Going into Sleep, No Software Needed, Plug &Play

I bought two of these bad boys so my wife and I could more freely enjoy our work from home days. Plugs right into a standard USB port (we opted NOT to use the USB ports on our computers, and plugged straight into the wall) and has a Micro USB going into the device itself. I would say, the cord it comes with *could* be a bit longer, however we had open outlets real close so didn't pose an issue for us when we set them up. Which was super simple to do by the way, just plug both sides of the cord and you're done. The power button has a nice white glowing ring around it when it's turned on, which I found to be helpful while walking past my office and wondering if I had remembered to activate it before stepping away. I think the only actual drawback I found was the button itself isn't super easy to press in. What I mean by that is it's kindof a deep press... and because the unit itself is so light (lighter overall than a deck of cards) it tends to squirm away as you try and push the button. A small inconvenience to need to use two hands to activate it (unless you adhere it to your desk or perhaps put something behind it to brace it) but worth mentioning. Not a big enough problem to cost it a star though. It does make a small amount of noise when it's on, honestly lower than a whisper, but in a quiet office or room it is audible. That being said, the purpose of these is to *not* be in the room, so don't let that change your mind. I will update this review if any issues or reliability problems come up, but I sincerely doubt they will. Hope this helps those of you who are interested in getting the most out of your remote work opportunities!!

I hooked this up to an outlet timer and it turns on and off at a set time automatically now. I was afraid it wouldn't work with a timer, like it would need to be turned on manually again, but no issues doing it like this.Only thing I kinda didn't like is I had to spend a good 45 minutes placing the mouse JUST right on the track so it only moves like 11 pixels worth so I can use my other mouse while the jiggler mouse cursor is still moving a teensy smidge without it being too much of an interference with my actual work mouse/cursor.I had to tape the mouse in place on the jiggler and then put the jiggler in the foam box to reduce noise (it's not terrible, but you can hear it if you are alert to it). I wish it had adjustable movement or easier ways to self-adjust, but a minor inconvenience for peace of mind. Turn on a video to play in a constant loop to prevent the computer from going to sleep overnight and then the mouse jiggler gets you off of idle in the morning.Side note: You can also leave a video playing on "overlay" mode on your phone to keep it from idling off in case your company has policies in place forcing your phone to lock after 1 minute which is just obnoxious. Obviously, don't do this when you are outside of your house, you don't want to risk your phone getting lost/stolen. This will prevent you from looking idle there, too.

Being completely irritated with Teams and the total inability to go stealth was a conundrum. Now with that being said, I work really hard and sometimes just need a break to sit back and not be irritated by Teams after 3.5 minutes and my little green light goes to inactive. UGH. In comes the "jiggler" I did some research on types of jiggler etc. There are ones that you need to download an APP or connect it to your computer per your administrator. Well, who wants their administrator to know that they have a jiggler!? So with this one you do not need to download anything on your computer. It just has a Usb like my mouse and I plug it into my multi Usb outlet in the wall and viola! I sit my mouse on top of the little black box and turn it on and walk away without Teams or anybody else spying on my. Nothing is connected to the computer. It just makes the mouse stay active by constantly moving it which keeps the computer active (ie the screen does not go to sleep, Teams light stays green, never shows me away) meets all of my needs. Period.

This product functions perfectly as solves the problem that’s been in the industry. I’ve recommended this to quite a few of my friends and they all loved it. I found out about this product through a friend of mine and use it quite regularly. This is my second purchase and I’d recommend this.
