4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the mouse surface.
  • For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild cleaning solution.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

4.2 Battery Care

The mouse features a 400mAh battery, offering approximately 130 hours of battery life. To prolong battery lifespan:

  • Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently.
  • Store the mouse in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
  • Charge the mouse regularly, but avoid overcharging.

4.3 Anti-slip Stickers

Some models come with anti-slip stickers made of PU material with a 3D stereo pattern. These are sweatproof and use 3M removable glue technology, ensuring no residual glue after long-term use.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Lag or Performance Issues with High Polling Rates

Warning message about high polling rate CPU usage

Image: Important reminder regarding high polling rate usage.

When using 8000Hz or 4000Hz polling rates, the mouse will occupy more computer CPU resources. It is recommended to use an Intel Core i7-9700K or above, or an AMD Ryzen 7-3700X or above. If your CPU frequency is unstable, it may affect mouse performance and cause lag.

  • Solution:
  • Ensure your computer's power settings are set to "High Performance."
  • Check for any power-saving features that might be throttling your CPU.
  • If lag persists, lower the polling rate to 2000Hz or 1000Hz.

5.2 Connectivity Issues

  • Wireless (2.4G/Bluetooth): Ensure the mouse is sufficiently charged. Check that the USB receiver is securely plugged in (for 2.4G) or that Bluetooth is enabled on your computer and the mouse is paired. Try restarting both the mouse and your computer.
  • Wired: Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the mouse and the computer. Try a different USB port.
