Red line of light flashing under the scroll wheel of HP X3000 mouse

For the lack of a better match, m posting my question in the notebook hardware section.

This is kind of a silly question, but for some reason my HP X3000 wireless mouse has decided to flash a blinking red colored line under the scroll wheel. The HP documentation about this mouse is pretty slim, couldn't find the meaning of this LED code in my mouse' support page.

In Logitech hardware, this generally indicates the battery is critically low. What does this indicate in an HP X3000 mouse?

It seems to be working normally though, it's tracking my hand movements quite precisely and not missing a single click.

If someone knows, please answer.

Thanks.

The first thing that I would have suggested is, change the battery.  On all of the mice that I have owned a blinking red light/line means the battery is low as you stated.  I can't find any information on the cause, otherwise.
