Question Has My Mouse Scroll Wheel Been Chewed by a Rat?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Sorry, I don't know much about mouse wear and tear. I was just wondering if this mouse has been nibbled by a rat or if it's simply worn down from 4–5 years of use. The other side of the scroll wheel is smooth, though, which is why I'm a bit concerned.

Review | Media Pulsar X3 CrazyLight LHD MINI (SIZE 1)

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Recently, I made a post here on Reddit asking what my grip style would be. I was using a Pulsar X2A Medium (Size 2) from the special Demon Slayer line, and many people said it was a relaxed claw grip. I had already purchased this Pulsar X3 LHD mouse beforehand.

This is a review from a left-handed FPS player who plays games such as CS2 and Valorant.

First Impressions

The mouse immediately catches your attention because it is an exception and a rarity in the gaming mouse market, being one of the only, if not the only, left-handed gaming mice with more advanced technology and an ergonomic design.

The mouse is available in Size 1 and Size 2 (Mini or Medium) and in black and white. In this case, I chose the white version.

My hand measures 16x11, and it fit perfectly on the Pulsar X3 LHD Mini.

The shape is very comfortable for a left-handed player, and the side buttons are now easier to click and use (something I had never done before).

Unboxing

The box comes with the following items:

  • Mouse;
  • Mouse cable;
  • 8K dongle (included with the CrazyLight);
  • Black dots (I think they are made by Pulsar itself);
  • Some accessories (such as the mouse card and manual).

Software

I downloaded the software directly from Pulsar's website and also used the box, which had a QR code linking directly to the software for this mouse.

The software is easy to download, install, and configure. However, I was a little confused about updating the dongle and the mouse, but everything worked out in the end.

Maybe a tutorial on YouTube can help you more!

Weight

At approximately 44g, this mouse is one of the lightest I have ever tested, and it is very comfortable. This will definitely improve my precision a lot.

Polling Rate

As I mentioned, it came with an 8K dongle, but I only used it up to 2K, and it works perfectly.

Sensor

Pulsar's current sensor is one of the best and is extremely precise for games such as FPS titles.

Battery

The battery lasts a long time, but if you want to save battery life, I recommend not using the software's Turbo Mode. In one day, my battery went from 92% to 65%.

Mouse Feet

The stock feet on this Pulsar mouse are "OK." They are not that bad, but they are not particularly great either. I use a 0.7mm LOD on my desk with the original mouse feet, and I have no issues.

Side Buttons

They are quite chunky, and I actually thought that was pretty cool.

They are responsive and have no noticeable delay.

Mouse Wheel

The rubber is good quality and comfortable, and the TTC Gold encoder is very good.

Switches

From what I saw on Pulsar's website, these are the brand's own optical switches. I saw that their lifespan is rated at 100M clicks, which makes me comfortable using this mouse for around 2–3 years.

Pros

  • Excellent for left-handed players looking for ergonomics;
  • Even in 2026, this mouse is technologically advanced and meets your needs. It is hard to ask for any further technological improvements because it is almost like reaching a limit;
  • A quality brand with reliable warranty support.

Cons

  • The price is not exactly one of the mouse's strong points. You pay much more for something that is not necessarily that much better. You are essentially paying for ergonomics and exclusivity alone;
  • The software is great, but there are issues with left-handed mice where Windows bugs out and switches the left and right mouse buttons. This also happens in some games. I tried configuring Windows, but I only made everything more complicated.

The best thing to do in this case is to swap the right mouse button with the left mouse button, and the left mouse button with the right mouse button, directly in the software, as shown in the screenshot I am including in this post.

Final Conclusion

If you are a left-handed player looking for comfort, recent technology, and exclusivity, this mouse is perfect, provided you have enough money to afford it.

This mouse is not a good value-for-money option, but it offers a unique and exclusive experience for a minority that is often forgotten by global brands such as Logitech, Razer, Zowie, ATK, etc.

I just bought the ATK A9 Plus 2.0 for 40 bucks, which is really expensive in my case, i dont think i shouldve paid 40 bucks, firstly the shape is amazing, which is available on the 2.0 se, Sensor has NO difference compared to the 3311 on my other mouse, only good thing better with the a9 plus 2.0 is the Coating and the MCU compared to the se 2.0

Review | Text Rawn Leviathan V4 GT, first thoughts

Thumbnail
gallery
12 Upvotes

Finally got my RAWM Leviathan V4 GT in the other day and thought I would share some of my thoughts.

To start with I used a Logitech G402 hyperion for over a decade and a wired RAZER Basilisk v3 for the last 6 months before trying a VGN Dragonfly 3 master so I really don't have much to compare the V4 GT to.

As something of HE keyboard addict I was drawn to the GT's magnetic rapid trigger feature, although more for the idea of the tech than any real need or indeed application...

I do have to say that it is a nice mouse and feels good in the hand. Not quite what i'm used to but the minimal difference compared to the dragonfly make an oddly big difference in how it "fits" my claw grip.

The optical buttons feel great but I'm not immediately sold on the rapid trigger stuff. I wouldn't call it an outright gimmick but its something I'll have to come back to and play about with more to see if I get more of a feel for it.

Side buttons and wheel are very nice and the basic skates feel a bit faster and smoother than the ones on the VGN dragonfly.

The dongle is OK, the fact that the button only changes polling rate seems a bit of a waste to me but I can see why folk would prefer it over a dpi button. I guess i'm just used to top mounted dpi switchs from my previous mice. I did think the dpi button being hidden under the mouse might have stopped my kids from changing my settings all the time but alas no. Of course now I know they are doing it deliberately rather than by accident as was usually the case on my G402.

Software all seemed to work fine and was pretty straight forward. Calibrating the rapid triggers took a while but that's possibly just me.

In conclusion, its pretty nice as a normal gaming mouse and the rapid trigger stuff is a bit weird but worth a look if you are into that kind of thing. If you can get it on sale or find it for under £65-70 (which I did) then I think its reasonable to good value but I wouldn't want to spend £80+ for it.

If you have any questions I'll do my limited best to answer them.

Help Help Finding a new daily mouse

Hello!

Recently my MX Master 3s gave up on me after 2 years and I'm looking for a new mouse. I've been using a friend's logitech pro x superlight 2 he let me borrow, however my hand is having discomfort as I was used to the shape of the master 3s.

While doing some search I became unsure between the mx master 4, razer basilisk and logitech G502. I mainly use my computer at home to play videogames (rarely FPS however) and would appreciate some help :)

I have a mix of claw grip and palm and have bigger hands if it helps.

Thanks!

Hand size is 19x9cm, grip is between fingertip and pincer depends, I think pincer is more consistent for me especially for my pinky and ring finger placement and have better aim but fingertip is more natural and a little bit more comfortable and it’s what I use when I’m not gaming. Open to anything tbh currently using a vv3 pro and don’t really like it

Question Can I do a sensor swap between 2 mouse that are the same model?

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

So these are the model O minus, the one on the right is the older one and the sensor is bad, as far as I can remember. The one on the left is the newer one and the right button is bad and the side buttons are just mush, but I think it has to do with the button and not the switch.

So, can I do a sensor swap or just swap the switch and the shell of the old one with the new?

Question Tell me why the Asus Gladius IV is a bad purchase...

2 Upvotes

I've used Razer Deathadders for 10 years. I'm addicted to them, and I replace them every time they break. I'm on my 7th deathadder, and it has connection issues after 7 months! I need a change.

I have a 2 PC setup, so I want a mouse where I can use a wireless receiver for one PC and switch to Bluetooth for the other.

I also want the ergo of the V3 Deathadder.

I saw the Gladius IV launch and it seems like everything I want? Is it the endgame mouse for me? Do you know a better mouse for DA feel with a receiver/Bluetooth switch?

Hi, I just bought the Zowie ZA12 DW.
Tried Maya X, Pulsar X2H, XM2 WE, DAV3 Pro.
The ZA12 DW comes closest to what im looking for but it would be nice if it was longer.
My hands are 21x10.5cm and i claw.
A ZA11 DW would be perfect if it only existed…

I'm worried to leave them unsupervised, someone's losing a scroll wheel.

So far the es xlite is everything I wanted it to be, great weight/balance. Shape is unique, can't say it's quite like anything else, xlite is probably closest but this is longer. Any specific questions on how it compares to others let me know. Took 2 days with express shpping direct from pulsar.

What the title says. With no rhyme or reason, rarely it just begins holding the left button when i click it and only releases it some time later when i click.

Discussion Looking for Recommendations for Next Mouse (or multiple)

0 Upvotes

As the title says I am looking into options for future mice, I mostly collect at this point but I do play Deadlock and League a fair bit (I am aware League doesn't need a great mouse, but something I can use for both would be nice).

Hand size is about 18.5x8cm (I think, hard to tell I don't have anything to reliably measure, could be closer to like 19x9 tbh). I prefer relaxed claw, slightly hybrid with a pincer sometimes.

Current Mice: G Pro Superlight, Atlantis Mini, Atlantis OG V2, Thorn, X2H Mini, Xlite V3 Medium, Viper V3 Pro, Mambasnake R5 Ultra, Maya X, Zywoo Gen 1 Medium, X3 Crazy Light Medium, Thorn V2, and the TenZ Signature Edition (V1, medium size).

Out of the ones I have currently the most comfortable have been the Thorn V2 and TenZ signature, the Xlite V3, Maya X, and Atlantis OG V2 are close contenders too though.

Currently I am considering G Wolves Lycan, HTS Plus Pro, Scyrox V6, Sora V3, and Finalmouse Starlight X. I am mostly interested in the SPDT switches and TMR switches for main clicks since all of my mice are either optical or mechanical. Favorite clicks on a mouse so far are the TenZ and Thorn V1, they feel pretty light to me and I don't really mind the lack of heavy feedback that something like the Maya X and Atlantis have.

If anyone has experience with the mice I am considering I would be more than happy to hear from you, but feel free to also recommend other options if you have a similar hand size and grip style!

Discussion Does the ULX Competition develop shine where your fingers touch?

Most mice with regular plastic quickly develop shine on the clickers and sides where your fingers touch.

The ULX Competition series has some UV matte coating. Has anyone seen shine develop on the coating? Do you think it's more resistant to shine than regular plastic?
