medion mouse freezes up when not moving

model m101-cbj

the red laser goes from bright to dark.

maybe dark red can't see through slighty scratched plastic, but it could also be a power saving bug, it freezes completely except buttons, after passing fingers past lasers it works again.

I tried deactivating usb power savings ? in german... did not hel;
any ideas how to keep the laser on at max brightness/power? 
w7

it seems to be a laser reading issue, the laptop is too black for it, also rotating mouse helped, however mouse on wooden bed table works best

Probably power save.  If you can't disarm the power save in the mouse
driver, try it using a custom power plan:

Incidentally, I recently purchased at a thrift store a RedDragon
S101-3 gaming mouse, which has a somewhat similar problem:
<https://redragonshop.com/products/redragon-s101-combo>
I has the same sleeping disorder as your Medion (Lenovo) mouse, and a
small collection of other irritations.  For example, the default mouse
lighting mode is flashing all the red mouse lights at full brightness
every few seconds.  This can be disabled by switching the driver into
one of two available modes, no lights or full bright with no flashing.
Unplug the USB mouse momentarily and the mouse returns to default
flashing red at full brightness and requires a reboot to return to
sanity.  It looks almost new but the rubberized paint is well on its
way to de-vulcanizing and becoming a sticky mess.  I should have been
suspicious and ask what an almost new mouse is doing in a thrift
store.

Of course the mouse freezes. It's not moving.
