3. Setup

3.1 Charging the Mouse

Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge the mouse. The ML903 offers two charging methods:

• Magnetic Charging Dock: Place the mouse onto the magnetic charging dock. Ensure the mouse aligns correctly with the charging pins. The RGB lighting on the dock will indicate charging status.
• USB-C Cable: Connect the provided USB-C cable directly to the mouse's USB-C port and the other end to a powered USB port on your computer or a USB wall adapter.

The mouse features an intuitive battery indicator and a low-power reminder that activates below 10% battery level.

3.2 Connectivity Modes

The ML903 supports three connectivity modes:

• Wired Mode (USB-C):
  Connect the USB-C cable directly from the mouse to your computer. The mouse will function immediately, and it will charge simultaneously. This mode is plug-and-play.
• 2.4GHz Wireless Mode:
  For optimal performance, use the magnetic charging dock which acts as a 4K Hz transceiver. Connect the dock to your computer via USB. The mouse will automatically connect to the dock. Alternatively, you can use the smaller 2.4GHz USB dongle directly plugged into your computer for standard 1K Hz polling rate. Ensure the mouse's mode switch (located on the underside) is set to 2.4G.
• Bluetooth Mode:
  Turn the three-position switch on the underside of the mouse to the right (Bluetooth mode). Long press the Bluetooth coding key (usually a small button near the switch or on the underside) to enter pairing mode. The mouse's indicator light will flash. On your computer or device, search for Bluetooth devices and select "Thunderobot ML903" to pair.

4. Operation

4.1 DPI Adjustment

The ML903 mouse features a dedicated DPI button, typically located behind the scroll wheel. Press this button to cycle through different DPI sensitivity levels. Each DPI level is often indicated by a distinct RGB color on the mouse or charging dock, providing quick visual confirmation of your current precision setting.

4.2 Polling Rate

The ML903 supports up to a 4000Hz polling rate when used with its magnetic charging dock/transceiver. This high polling rate minimizes input lag, providing extremely smooth and responsive tracking, crucial for competitive gaming. When using the standard 2.4GHz dongle or Bluetooth, the polling rate will be lower (typically 1000Hz or less).

4.3 Ergonomics and Grip

The ML903 features an ergonomic, ultra-lightweight design (65g) with a refined structural design. It is crafted for comfort during long gaming sessions and is suitable for various grip styles including palm, fingertip, and claw grips.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Thunderobot ML903 mouse, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the mouse and charging dock. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild electronic cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Sensor Cleaning: Occasionally, use a cotton swab or compressed air to gently clean the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse to prevent tracking issues.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the mouse and dock in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Cable Care: Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the USB-C cable to prevent internal damage.
• Mouse Feet: The ML903 uses 100% PTFE mouse feet for smooth glide. If they become worn, replacement feet can be purchased from authorized retailers.
