@@Beardedbob I recently bought a G Pro Wireless and saw a post about it coming with omron 20M is this bad? My model is S / N 2043 is it possible to have come with 20m? I was disappointed with logitech this is false advertising

That would make a killer video Codelife, explaining how you have a 60 gram G pro Wireless.

Thanks for the positive feedback and I'm glad you are enjoying the content.

Do not remove mouse whell shell thingy!!! I had to reopen and install it. İf u remove it, it'll ruin feelings of mouse clicks. It has spring that bounces presses back.

Awesome glad it kept you entertained. I stopped ads from showing once the content has begun as it annoys me when I'm watching something this intense. I have them at the start and end, which I think is fair.

Awesome 👍 do you have any pictures?

Glad you liked it and it helped. 👍

Glad you liked it. I've not got a dremel an a nail file for drilling/removing plastic and this is working much better.

I agree at this weight and still feeling/looking like a mouse it could certainly be a contender. I'm planning to do a G502 weight reduction but the G305 is before unless on here it overtakes it www.beardedbob.com/vote-for-which-review-you-want-next/

Do not remove mouse whell shell thingy!!! I had to reopen and install it. İf u remove it, it'll ruin feelings of mouse clicks. It has spring that bounces presses back.

It's all about just doing what you feel comfortable with. I would do it in small stages just incase you don't like it and then you can return it back. Nice job though getting yours down to 72g 👍

Np glad you liked it

This is undoubtedly a risky operation. Glad you liked it. 👍

Nice one glad it helped. What did you do some? Some weight reduction mods?

Glad you found it 👍

People do this a lot with the G305 wireless internals in to say a Zowie FK1. Check out Reddit sub mousereview there are some on there people have one.

@@Beardedbob I would nitpick that as more of a shell swap rather than a true wireless conversion. But I guess that would be the closest practical way of doing it :)

Good look in the mouse modding quest

😍😍😍 thanks glad you're enjoying the content. 👍

@@Beardedbob You've hit a market, potentially you might have 100k subs in 6 months if you keep this consistent. Good Luck!

Glad you liked the tunes..... 🎼🎹🎵

Hehe, the GPW is a tricky one as it has a lot of parts well screws. The g305 might be an easier one to start. Skatez, I'm undecided as there is little difference on the GPW as the stock stakes are good. If you don't like the sharp edges then atm I would pick Corepad, Hotline or Hyperglide. I'm going to do a final video summarising them all and showing the stats so people can make a decision.

Np Kaspar Skjesol glad I could help 👍

Thank's Animal Movie I appreciated the support

Sure am. It's becoming a popular request. Im doing the g35 first then it will be the g502 as it's getting the votes.

G502 is extremely heavy

@@Beardedbob hey, ever get to doing that g502 lightspeed weight reduction? I'm looking to get that mouse but I want to know how light it can get

Thanks glad you liked it. The buttons are just a personal preference

@@Beardedbob Fair! I removed them (down to the PCB), but I think the real benefit of grip can be garnered from simply not putting either the buttons or blanks in the slots, so the shell has a hole and is easier to hold.

Thank's heavenly I appreciated the support

Kind to sss you have modded it also. Did you drill the shell if so how much extra weight did you get out of it? I'll have to test the buttons further with that part removed as I've not felt a dramatic change. What good is this part can be put back in as its not a perm change

@@Beardedbob I dont have a exact measurement thing, it only measures in whole number, not in decimal, so it was around 66 grams. After drilling holes, it was 65, I only drilled the bottom plate tho. Not the top shell, cuz I dont feel confident enough to drill in pattern. Its not really damaging to the clicks, but they just click deeper and obviously takes longer time to come back up. The scroll wheel gets less clicky also due to removing the holder that was holding the wheel. Overall for me, getting rid of the front pcb holder didnt affect anything, except it ruin the clicks a bit and drilling out the holes didnt affect that much either. Still your mod is way ligther than mine(65) at 60 grams, but I really want the solid feeling of my mouse, so I didnt get rid of any screws or any cut out on the frame, only some holes :)

I'm trying to think of a way that will allow me to drill in lines, so it doesn't just look a mess, but so far I've come up with zero ideas lol. I think the 65g is a decent reduction and the extra 5g might not be worth the change in the feeling. Its all preference I'll have to compare the distance the buttons travel now to my original GPW.

@@Beardedbob I just used a regular drill and sand papered the holes, they look really clean, so im satisfied. You cant even see the bottom, so it's a great mod still. Keep it up

I'll try some sandpaper if they are rough and a Dremel. Yeah, the base as long as it's smooth and doesn't snag can save some decent weight. I got 4g out of it.

Yeah this one had a lot compared to the model I say.

Hi, You are the first person to ask for it. To help me remember can you request it here beardedbob.com/request-form/ if then it get a few I'll add it to the voting system beardedbob.com/vote-for-which-review-you-want-next/ I'll try to remember but atm the priority is G305, G502 then S2.

Thanks

It should just flip up. I've done a few and they have all been the same.

yeah its a decent weight reduction and it doesn't look to messed up after lol.

1997 and a 56k modem :-). Stage 2 will be later this month along with the switch replacement.

@@Beardedbob yes 56K Modem first Time and than come the first ADSL Internet with Flatrate :D

33.6k and 128k ISDN also :-p

You could use tape on the battery but the gpw holder is pretty good and doesn't weight much. It's an option though. I feel that I missed that rule/warning 😩. Just checking out some Dremels

Welcome to endgame club 👌... Do you have any pics to share?

Beardedbob my apologize. ive been really busy. Yea I can. I’ve interacted with you on reddit ill send there.

Hi, I've no idea how you would replace the sensor.

K thanks for the tip

Thanks dnalekaw glad you liked it 👍

Thanks Hodgey glad you liked it 👍

Thanks River Ringo glad you liked it 👍

depends how you remove it. the way he did you're going to have a tuff time. just desolder it from the board in the center that way you can re solder it whenever you want the buttons back.

Nope haven’t come across away. You could sand the base so it’s got less plastic but it won’t make much of a difference

7 days I get but I'm not gaming 24/7

It takes 15mins to charge it

You spilt the skates. The other layer still on there is the sticky part of the stock skatez. If you are replacing them for some other skatez remove it all.

@@Beardedbob Thanks! Waiting on the Arc 2's to come in. I've been using the GPW without the bottom piece but I've heard a few people say they took out the charging magnets too. Do you think that would make it front heavy? And would taking out the side buttons on the right throw the balance off as well?

I don't see a problem which this or the balance. You can always move around the battery to alter the balance of it's bothering you

Yep I'm working on doing one for the ultimate

Beardedbob thanks a ton!

try this later one studio.kzfaq.infouliF-S40p4w/edit You can't remove the RGB fully only the defuser.

its fairly easy to get back on once you hold the two pieces together.

I will but if you want to make it a priority you can now vote for the G903 as it's been added to the voting system. www.beardedbob.com/vote-for-which-review-you-want-next/

Yeah, you have to heat them so you don't bend them and they peel off easily. I've not tried it so I would check, but Zippo lighter fluid can remove them. Atm, I use a hairdryer and a soft plastic tool. O If the adhesive isn't great, I use double-sided M3 tape to stick them back down which is thin.

Not sure but it’s been asked before so I will find it

Its been asked before but at the moment i've not yet tested it. I'm not sure if anyone else has?

Thanks, on the outside it looks pretty normal as well.

@@Beardedbob Yeah bro. I am sure It wouldn't effect your grip on the mouse either. I got myself a Glorious Model O and absolutely loving It at the moment. The Issues that people were having with the early copies have been emended on my copy and it is impossible to activate side buttons via pressing on the side walls now. Definitely think they've added thicker plastic or something on the side.

I love the Model O. Also, I swap for my days between that and the GPW as I can't decide lol. The sidewall was hard to press so I didn't see it as an issue but nice to hear they fixed it. It would be nice to see how but my guess is they placed a plastic strut or something to stop it flexing.

@@Beardedbob Yeah it wasn't really a problem but yeah it's nice they made it stronger. I can't go back now to anything heavy like even for causal use on Windows and stuff. Amazing mouse especially for the price of £ 47!

Some people use another mouse for surfing, but I'm the same, I like to keep the same mouse and just use a different profile. I agree at that price, given what you get its a great deal.

not sure I keep meaning to measure it. I'll try to remember next time I've got one apart.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Mmmmmmmm I've not tired but I don't see why not. The next one I do I'll give it a try

@@Beardedbob really looking forward to it, because we would be able to make it wired a 65ish grams without even breaking anything, if i calculated it right. Keep me updated please :O -2g powerplay, -2.5g bottom cover, -6g battery and "mounting plate", - 2.1g blue right mouse side button thingy, -1.2g scrollwheelplate, -0.5g power switch which are 14.3g plus some screws.

So ive tried it out, the mouse works. But it thinks that a battery is plugged in at 65% charge. Firmware controls that until 95% battery charge fastcharge is active. So after some hours mouse started to smell a bit, and the mouse got a little warm, i decided to plug the battery back in to avoid damage.

So you are backing Stage 2 modification 👍

Decent idea I'll investigate it. I've a Dremel now which is doing a good job also but some more ££££

Beardedbob yes just a idea also look at plastic welding might give you some new ideas

Nice job. I'm thinking about sticking the sides in but tbh I haven't noticed they are missing.

No these aren't stock. The stock are black.

I’ve just picked up one so good timing. To help me track it or the number of people that what to see it you can request videos here. beardedbob.com/request-form/ this then will allow them move to the voting system here beardedbob.com/vote-for-which-review-you-want-next/

Lol.. I'm expecting the bottom to fly off out of the window 😂

Well im not planing to donit, but you did earn a sub!

It’s on a different ribbon cable so that might have failed. You can get a replacement or chat to me over on shop.Beardedbob.com as I can repair it

Yep I’ve just been testing it so it’s coming very soon

I'll add it to the list.

On its way after the S2

Yep

nice let me know what you think

Just keep the left and right clicks screwed down and all will be fine 👍

@@Beardedbob yea didn't effect usage at all just when i shook the mouse they were had a little play

Thank's Paublito I appreciated the support

Let us know how you get on. The battery I used is linked in the description. It's a 100mah 3.7v. Used mainly in small rc helicopters

@@Beardedbob thank you for reply

Np 👍

ATM it’s on Hyperglides but only because they are new.

@@Beardedbob how did u find them I can't find any for the g pro

100mah 👍

@@Beardedbob thanks

55 would be decent but it depends how the shell feels after I guess. Yeah this was a mission, if you want to do it you need to put aside some time lol.

@@Beardedbob yeah depends how it feels maybe alot of sanding unfortunately I loved the mouse but not the shape so got the new g703 light speed but I'm not bothered about the extra weight it's about comfort and I can aim well with it

If you can aim, then that's all that counts :-p. Weight and shape are all personal so you just need to find what works for you. I'm still a secret lover of the M65 from Corsair. I've bought the Elite version so it will be interesting to see what I think now as I last used the M65 pro back in 2017 while playing PUBG. God I miss playing it.

@@Beardedbob yes agreed find what comfortable for you the m65 I didn't know what it was until I looked it up guess it goes unnoticed and yes 2017 pubg days I still play it now its the only game that if your in top 5 feels like your having a heartattack

Yeah, it's not one people talk about and it's not a looker either lol. You can't beat the rush. It's hard to control the mouse though if you aren't used to it haha....When the Latency got bad on Shanok that's when we stopped playing it and we haven't really returned. We haven't found another BR game though to replace it.

Hi, Mine took about 4 months.
