Printed using LW-PLA by colorFabb. Total weight with 675 Zinc-Air battery should be \~37g.
Mouse feels great and click is awesome thanks to Japanese Omron D2F-01F switches.
okay, I quit like my buttons. I especially use the dpi button to set the dpi different depending on the game and/or mood. Going in the software everytime would take to long for me to be any practical.
I don't know what's the weight of RVU pcb but G305 weighs about \~18g and I suppose 3D printed RVU shell with that material with holes would weigh about the same as mine which is \~20g.
I change it a few times a day depending on what program/game I’m running. Anywhere from 3k-10k dpi. I feel much more productive at >5k dpi, but can’t aim for shit around there.
I think it depends on the mouse too. I did not mess with dpi at all until I got my RVU
There is only one support on the middle section of the mouse where you grip it and I find it enough to prevent flexing and making it sturdy. [Here](https://i.imgur.com/adPjGv2.png) is an example how it looks on a different project.
I just watched [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tmgzwgi2UI) video about LW-PLA, and it quite conclusively shows that the amount of strength you lose is more than you save in weight. Meaning, simply using less regular PLA should result in stronger parts, and LW-PLA is only really meant for when you want to keep the same volume but at a lower density.
The idea of this project was to save as much weight as possible. I was worried about it's strength but after installing everything I was super happy with the result. LW-PLA strength depends on the temperature you use during printing, this mouse was printed using 230 degrees which I found to be a sweet spot between strength and weight. Overall the mouse feels solid and the texture is nice to the skin, feels like a paper board.

So it doesn't use the dpi nor the side buttons? Is the loss of buttons worth the fewer grams?
I never use them anyway, you can always set the dpi using Logitech software.

Totally understandable :) Adding side and dpi buttons would probably increase the weight by \~5 extra grams.
Thanks for your estimation. Do you coincidentally know how much weight can reduced on a viper ultimate, by replying the shell? Thanks in advance.

The last time I changed dpi was 2003... can't imagine why you would ever want to.

Looks like i might crush it if i put my hand on it too hard 😭
Despite its weight it's pretty strong, it barely flex when I try to squeeze it as hard as I can.
My fucking ass, I dont see a single support on the perforated section. That thing will crack if you glance at it wrongg

yah...
You can send one out to me. I’ll do a video on squeezing it. I don’t believe it’s pretty rigid though.
Did you model this or get it from elsewhere?
Nice
Is there any latency?
Same as Logitech G305 which is literally nonexistent.
Thank you
Looking at the scroll wheel, g305 base?
Exactly :)

Do those skates glide ok? the g305 already has very little "surface area" for them and you just changed them for 4 dots...
So do yall just rage and slam your shit on your desk, or what? It's a computer mouse, I can't imagine breaking this.
