CRU WiebeTech Programmable Mouse Jiggler MJ-3 (Single Unit)

Great for preventing your computer from going into sleep mode too quickly. Does just what it promises.

Love it! I work on and off the computer and this thing saves a lot of logging on for me.

Great product

This device is worthless for a laptop used on a docking station. I have a PC plugged into a dock using an external monitor. It works great to emulate mouse movement when the computer is on. However, when I actually want to force the computer to sleep at the end of the day, then the juggler continues to wake my computer every minute while plugged in. This means that I have to physically unplug it every day when I want to sign off. Now, some people may call this “laziness”. Rather, that is an extreme amount of unnecessary wear on my USB ports. No USB port is designed to have devices installed/removed on a daily basis. Also, my work PC is locked down where I cannot install software. So, I thought that I might could make some adjustments to the programming using the free configuration software. My personal computer is a Mac (running the correct OS), and when I downloaded the Mac configuration software, it will not work. The program just crashes every time. Overall this is an obviously poorly designed product and service, especially considering its premium price.

The product works as directed but less than a month in mine fell apart rendering it useless.

Outstanding product and works very well with Windows and Linux. All the IT departments talk about reducing RSI and improving ergonomics. Then they add in these idiotic screen lock rules which prompt you to type in your password a billion times a day. While this may be necessary in unfriendly environments, it should not be so hard to do provided you are in a trusted Wifi zone. It is just plain laziness not to implement simple security roles that are not overly cumbersome on employees. While your IT department grows a brain which could take a century or longer, you can remove the pain by putting in this device in your USB port and overcoming other peoples laziness/stupidity. Great product!!! and highly recommended.

Really like this at the office

This little gadget is amazing, I hate that I hadnt found it earlier. Plug it in, and within five seconds the screen lights up. A friend has a program downloaded on his computer that does the same thing, but I think this is safer for a work computer (i.e., not detectable). Ive tried it successfully on a Dell and a Mac. If you watch the cursor on the screen closely, you can see it move ever so slightly every 30 seconds. Great for keeping IM/Skype/Communicator active. An added bonus would be a feature that lets it time out, otherwise youll show as online until the end of days before manually removing it from the computer. A question I had before buying it that I now know: when plugged in, it shows up as having plugged in an external mouse. Completely untraceable.

I use this device to keep my computers awake to complete crucial tasks, like updating software or operating systems. It also helps to prevent the computer from getting locked when software may get interrupted by the OS locking. Keep in mind this should only be used in a safe place, and if it is used on a laptop, the laptop should be locked to a physical object so it cannot be removed from the premise. Otherwise, someone could easily steal the device and access your information.

Keeps computer on as if you are working. Great for these rough times! Nothing to install. Looks like a normal mouse in the system properties.
