I got some of these which I use in my Apple Magic Mouse at work.  Seem to be doing the job well at the moment.  Mine came with standard UK 3pin plug so not sure what some of the reviewers were sent!

If you are replacing the standard AA battery with a rechargeable one, be aware that the voltage output of the rechargeable one tends to be slightly lower than the standard one.
Without traction power is nothing!
