• Criteria for Mouse Physical Defects
- 1. Standard Actuation Locations for Mouse Clicks: The following criteria apply specifically when the click is actuated at the normal location of actuation. For M1 and M2 buttons, the normal actuation location is aligned with the scroll wheel lengthwise and at the center of the click shell widthwise. For other buttons, the normal actuation location is situated at the symmetrical center of each respective button.
- 2. Pre-travel Defect : Pre-travel refers to the distance between the click shell's untouched static state and the point of click actuation. In our warranty policy, if the pre-travel distance exceeds 1mm, it is classified as a defect. We consider such cases as deviations from the optimal functionality and strive to ensure customer satisfaction by addressing and resolving any pre-travel defects encountered with our mouse products.
- 3. Post-travel: Post-travel is the distance between the actuation of the switch and the point where the shells come in contact. In our warranty policy, if the post-travel distance exceeds 1mm, it is deemed a defect. Additionally, if the overall travel distance (pre-travel + post-travel) exceeds 1.5mm, it is also considered defective. Our commitment is to provide mice with optimal post-travel performance, ensuring seamless interaction and precise functionality for our customers.
- 4. Pre-travel/Post-travel Comparison Defect: In assessing mouse defects, we also consider the comparison between pre-travel and post-travel distances. If the difference in travel between one click and another exceeds 50%, it is deemed a defect. It's important to note that the specific distances will vary depending on the models and implemented switches. However, differences in travel between different mouse models do not justify a defect. Our goal is to ensure consistent and balanced pre-travel/post-travel performance for optimal user experience.
- 5. Actuation Force Criteria: Actuation force is defined as the force required to actuate the switch and emit an input signal. Our warranty policy specifies the following defect limits based on button types: For M1 and M2 buttons, the defect limit is set at 100 gf (gram-force). For the scroll wheel and other buttons, the defect limit is set at 200 gf. In addition, if the difference in actuation force between M1 and M2 buttons exceeds 50g, it is also considered defective.
- 6. Noise Defects: To ensure a high-quality user experience, our warranty policy addresses sound intensity and noise-related defects in the following manner: Sound Intensity: A switch is considered defective if the sound intensity exceeds 55 dB (decibels). We acknowledge that excessive noise can be disruptive and impact user satisfaction. Therefore, if you notice sound levels above this threshold during regular use, it is considered a defect and eligible for warranty coverage. Difference between M1 and M2: Additionally, if there is a difference of over 20 dB between the sound produced by M1 and M2 buttons (noticeable through a phone microphone), it is considered a defect. We aim to provide consistent sound profiles across buttons to ensure a harmonious user experience. Extraneous Noise: Any noises exceeding 20 dB (noticeable through a phone microphone) originating from non-utilitarian parts of the mouse, such as shell noises, click squeaking, or grinding noises, are considered defects as they affect the performance of the product.
- 7. Temperature: If a battery is over 60 C degrees, or a mouse/keyboard surface is over 50 C degrees and is not exposed to a direct source of heat, it is defective.
-
Battery Warranty
Battery is considered defective if it performs less than 80% of the advertised capacity. The advertised capacity is the number of usage hours calculated with minimum settings (e.g., for mice: DPI Led off, Polling rate 125Hz) from a full charge (3 hours) until the product turns off completely. The battery display on the Software is not a reliable and accurate indication of the battery status. Battery lifetime will deteriorate over time due to structural electrode disordering, losing up to 20% its capacity after 2 years of usage.
Damage caused by:
- Reduced battery due to normal decline
- Problems or damage caused by self- or unofficial repairs, disassembly, unauthorized specification changes, or unofficial parts.
- The product serial number is damaged and unreadable, or proof of purchase cannot be provided.
- Water damage damaged internal battery wiring/connectors, excessive oxidation and rust of electronic components caused by liquid penetration.
- Other Abnormal Use Rechargeable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Battery

Lethal Product Battery Information Rechargeable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Battery “Batteries, like any other battery, are consumables that have a lifespan.”
1. Batteries are consumables. Over time, lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries experience a natural decrease in capacity due to continuous chemical reactions.
2. The capacity of lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries will decrease with regular use.
3. Under normal usage conditions and ambient temperature (25℃), the lifespan of a lithium-ion battery is approximately one year of charging and discharging, after which the capacity drops below 80% of the original capacity.
4. Battery life varies based on several factors, including system design, power consumption, program and operating system usage, power management settings, and user preferences.
5. Operating the battery under extreme temperatures or in abnormal conditions can significantly reduce battery life by 60% or more.
6. The discharge rate of the battery depends on the software running on the device and the power management settings.
7. After prolonged use, the battery may undergo slight swelling under specific conditions. This swelling does not pose any safety concerns.
8. The battery charging starting capacity (%) is typically set between 90% and 99%, although actual values may vary by model.
9. Charging or storing batteries at high temperatures can lead to permanent capacity loss and accelerate the reduction of battery life. The battery protection program may limit or halt charging if the temperature is too high or overheated.
10. After prolonged use, the battery may undergo slight swelling under specific conditions. This swelling does not pose any safety concerns.
11. Swollen batteries do not present a safety concern but should be replaced and disposed of correctly. When replacing a swollen battery, do not dispose of it in household waste.
