Q: Is there a simple keyboard (non-mouse, non-timer) way to start the screensaver?

There seems to be no keyboard command to start the screen saver. If there was one then I could shut off my mouse and *then* start my screen saver and walk away. I need to shut off my mouse to save battery life, but when I pick it up to shut it off the screen saver disengages.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
