FYI. Lenovo also sold a somewhat similar looking set, the "Lenovo Ultraslim Plus Wireless Keyboard and Mouse", which in the meantime looks to have been replaced by the "Lenovo Professional Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo".

I have two of the former sets, and since the dongle looked so similar to the one from Logitech (minus the markings), I tried added the USB ID (17ef:6022) to the hid-logitech-dj driver in either 'dj' or 'hidpp' mode, but no luck.

Lenovo has a tool for windows which shows the battery percentage, so it does support it.
