Minor mod, huge improvement

Hey so I might be in the minority here but I LOVE my razer deathadder, I'm not into razer products most of the time but this mouse has been my favourite for a long time, its perfect for my hand, build quality is actually really good and I think it even looks quite good.

HOWEVER.

The guys over at razer fucked up, on the left side of the mouse below the two side thumb buttons there is a rubber pad for your thumb to rest, this is a bit of a problem because that rubber irritates your skins really quickly, it's really uncomfortable after only a few minutes and if you spend a couple hours gaming its terrible.

Too solve this I removed the rubber pad

I used it like that for a while, thumb resting on the plastic, but then I had an idea so I grabbed some spare suede leather I had laying around, cut it to shape and glued it on, It was the best!! So soft, so subtle, its great!




it could have been neater, but i think it still looks alright and its a huge improvment.

leather finished mouse is the way of the future.

anyway just thought i'd share

But how will they get it to rgb?

translucent suede

I would not complain if leather replaced RGB as the new craze, RGB is the herpes of the tech industry

SO MUCH THIS!
RGB is lazy design. Just make it black&white, the rest is up to the consumer.

I need more rgb, and now with leather. Let me live in a crazy 80s style cyberpunk world with crazy colors, if I can't have neon lights on everything, then let it be RGB..... ON EVERYTHING.

I want you to look at my pc setup and think you took a hit of lsd
