Looks useful however I'd probably loose it between keyboard charges.

Looks an expensive way to solve a trivial problem. I use a wired keyboard, but for the Magic Mouse I just rotate two sets of rechargeable batteries... I'm not paying $50 to save a few moments work once a week(ish) :eek4:

I use eneloop rechargables, they last months on the keyboard and I rotate every three to four  on the mouse, so I have a spare set on trickle charge ready, and that's with heavy usage.
