I refer to gaming mice released by the big names from Razer to Logitech weighing closer to 100g than the 55g or under available today, only just a few years ago.
Ironic I dug out my Microsoft SideWinder mouse the other day - back when it was all about adding weights. It came with about 20*gram of weights you could add in.
Edit: https://bit-tech.net/reviews/tech/peripherals/microsoft_sidewinder_mouse/1/#:~:text=The Sidewinder comes with three,a different amount of glide.
The case for the weights/feet then doubled up as a cable holder.
Edit: 35*

My first "proper" gaming mouse, the Logitech G602, well over 150g in weight, in fact it comes in heavier than a non gaming mouse, the current MX3 series weighing ~143g lol.
Present myself this crimbo is a jacket for the moors Mountain equipment Lotse, unpopular colour it seems so nowhere near the £500 just woke up so rubbish pic
wanted the 3 layer design ,the pit zips and helmet friendly hood (you never know) i have the Solomans and the sealz socks so just need some top notch waterproof walking trousers now, suggestions welcome
I have an arc'teryx beta. But nearly went with a rab latok.
The upper tier ME just don't have the colours I like.
That will keep you warm on the way to the local curry house.
I think every other person on the street has a North face jacket. They must be absolutely creaming it on terms of sales!

A couple of second hand books to kid myself on!
Edit. I was right. These books are way beyond my cooking ability

Nut spinner set and a pair of extra-long screwdrivers. Did not come with a stand so made one.

I got the grey card Sunday so picked it up this morning from the sorting office, sod waiting another day
Have to say the unboxing experience is quite the event:
Pros over the DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed:
- Feels more premium, the magnesium is cool to the touch yet still grippy enough
- Even lighter
- Convenient charging stand
- Up to 8K out of the box and more features in the software
- Software is much slicker than Razer's and has no background services that run at all times or bloaty "modules" in the software
- Includes grip tape + Dot glide skates
- Limited edition
Cons over DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed:
- Stupidly expensive
- No USB port, though you do have the stand...
I had to pay £37 customs in the end too, £8 of which was simply RM "handling" it lol.
It's here!!! That does look awesome.
I was really impressed by Lamzu's Packaging/Unboxing experience of the Thorn... A superior unboxing experience is a nice touch IMO and Pulsar used those extra pennies to not disappoint
Mouse looks great, I absolutely loved my Pulsar Xlite V3 (Medium) but after using the DAV3 Hyperspeed more and more it just felt a little to big for me over time which was a shame...
Enjoy
Edit: If the Pulsar wasn't Zowie EC Series enough already! Now have a near clone of their charging station

The charging dock is legit rather awesome, very jfty like a single slab of weight But yes been using it since this morning all day and no problems of note at all vs the DAv3HS. I did a lot of testing between 1K, 2K, 4K and 8K and really 1K is the best, at 8K there's up to 14-17% CPU use quickly moving the mouse around the desktop, meanwhile 1K is ~7%, 2K is around 11% but you'd be hard pressed to notice any difference above 1K. Seems this is just one of those esports headliners more than anything.
I was actually going for the Xlite ES series v3 before as I liked the idea of the OLED display on the bottom but it is a bit heavier and is not unique enough to switch from the Razer. This is and should last me a lifetime given it should never go shiny with wear like all plastic/rubberised mice do.

yeah i l don't hate the colour but must admit it was price over colour but i don't really do bright although i can see the advantage in a serious environment for being seen (my most extreme is Rough Tor and the moors)
i do love the big hood (helmet ready),it feels like i am in the coat rather than wearing it also i have never had pit zips before ,how did i cope without !

Bought this build from @LiE on the MM (7800XT/7600X/32GB), adding some more storage before it goes into use full time, but very happy with it as it is. Replacing my old build of 10 years old. (4770k/1070/16GB).
Was eyeing that up myself as I've got a friend who's thinking of upgrading, really good value!
I'll just have to wait three weeks before @LiE builds a new PC and lists that up on MM
Yeah pit zips all the way for me.
I overheat with even slight inclines even walking slowly up.
These seem to be reserved for high spec Jackets!
I did see how discounted that colour is.
I just like "women's" colours. It's not a safety thing. I just don't like navy, red, black.
Teals/turquoise, pink, yellow are for me. Really only yellow/oranges that I like you get with mens stuff!

I feel violated, this is for an economy ticket to HK...during Easter.
I tried all the tricks VPN, even VPN set to HK that gave me HK $ as the currency....which made no difference.
Incognito, Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
Different computer, iPad, or the App (sometimes mobile prices are different.
Different internet even (work internet routes through Ireland, the BBC page gives me BBC world news as default, not UK)
Different travel sites, google flights, skyscanner, direct to airline's site.
Through Cashback site vs not.
None of it worked.
The best i could do was to knock £50 off that if I book through a 3rd party site....which I wasn't going to for that little. or £300 off if I do a connection in Helsinki, but return leg was a 13hr layover..... or £200 off if I do a return leg via Barcelona, except when i click through from Skyscanner the page doesn't load, tried 3 different computers and iPad....
In the end i gave up and hand over my money.

Haha, my old pc was just starting to have some issues, (its ten years old now) and is/was on borrowed time so I've been looking at options and this just happened to pop up at the right time, just need to install some more drives and it'll be good to go.
(I might change the PCIe and ATX cables to white though, don't tell @LiE)
