I own several old USB and PS/2 mice which I bought personally before setting up my company. Does it make sense to gift or sell them to my Ltd?

Mouse as company asset

Is it your lucky talisman? As in smashing through your first day at the client only on “the lucky one”?
There is a story in “Fashboys” where one guy uses his lucky mouse every time he opens a new stock exchange.
Question related can’t help, you could potentially do it and sell assets to your company and do a documented assessment based on market price(quotes off ebay for ex) then is that as price. Or gift them and keep track.
Question is why would you like to create more paperwork and spend 20-30min writting a document to generate a 2£ tax saving?Comment

Unfortunately atw is partially right, the large flat wheels driven by the ball actually interrupt an IR(probably can be visible) beam between Q1 and the emitter above it. So yes it could be described by those not in the know as an 'optical mouse'.
However the convention is that is called a ball or mechanical mouse to differentiate from a mouse that uses optical methods as the sole method of detecting mouse movement, identifiable by the light coming out of the mouse's bottom.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Originally posted by AtW View PostTrackballs are much better to prevent RSI anyway, modern mice use freaking lasers already
Unfortunately with mice like other things size matters I use a trust wireless mouse 16536 which is twice the size of normal mice and under £10. This pretty much has eliminated rsi and fatigue. The normal mice appear to have been designed for barbie dolls not shovel hands like me.
Trackballs use lasers as well, they read the blobs on the ball (may be invisible to the naked eye).Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
