Magic Mouse charging percentage changes after unpluging

Have a Magic Mouse, version 1.9.2.

Plug into iMac (iMac19,2) to charge. Starts at 3% but won't go above 84%.

Disconnect charging cord from the Magic Mouse.

Still shows connected via Bluetooth but now battery shows 3% again.

Mouse clicks and movement are not registered on the iMac at all.

Same thing happens if I plug into an external outlet. Will show charging. Unplug when reach 40%. Then charge value immediately updates to 3%.

Suggestions?

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.13

Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately, the iMac is the only Apple we have.

This issue was sudden. Both the keyboard and mouse showed a low charge on their batteries.

I charged the keyboard first, since I can charge and keep using it, and the mouse next.

That's when I noticed the mouse would not go above 84%. Thankfully, I had a wired mouse laying around.

Apple may replace the battery/mouse for $29. See this page or contact Apple Support.

First try a different cable. If no change then sounds like bad battery in mouse. You would have to replace the entire mouse as the battery is not user replaceable.

I suggest you to check your Apple Magic Mouse on any other device.

Did the issue begin gradually or immediately?
