Really useful channel. I use your teardown videos to swap switches.Thanks!
Super impressive teardown. Pulsar is really moving the game forward with engineering. Also cool to know I can swap the opticals and try some others out!
Sure can, let’s hope someone makes compatible switches that are decent
There are two types of switches that can fit in the x2v2 which are the Razer optical switches and A4Tech Bloody optical switch. They dont sell the switches separately but if you have any of those mice you can swap them
Just switched from my Razer Basilisk to a Pulsar X2H. Absolutely love it. The finish Pulsar uses is really nice.
Is the left and right clicks switch TTC Gold? I was using a modded Super light pro with TTC Gold and it was a lighter switch and feel for me, can I just swap any switch in this mouse or it has to be an optical switch? Sorry for asking, I’m really new to modding and I want to send my mouse to a mod shop and just curious. Loved the video btw!
I swapped my X2V2 Mini switches for the Viper V2 Pro's, and like it more. Has a bit of a deeper sound and heavier feel.
would it be possible to replace the side buttons with kailh silent switches? Perhaps by soldering the pins onto the existing ones (after breaking the og switches off)
Pulsar uses Raesha optical switches, same OEM as Razer and Lamzu. Impressive teardown!
what do you use to remove the rubber pads? It seems to peel of very easily
hi, do you know if the x2v2 mini and the x2 mini have the same base plate? if i wanted to buy a weight reduction base plate for the x2 mini, and put it on my x2v2 mini, since there doesnt seem to be one out yet for the x2v2 mini?
If you like the mouse (shape, scroll wheel, and so on), but you cannot befriend the on-board main clicks (pre-travel, soft feeling, and a feel like "pre-click"), would you recommend buying the Razer switches you showed in your video?
They would cost me around $20 from Amazon (20 euros).
I'm surprised how easy it is to swap switches. It isn't literally hotswap, but i'ts pretty darn close! Sooner or later, people will find out which switch is the most consistent, and harvesting shall commence lol
you wont as they all wont use the same
wait so do razer switches from ali not work?
Just got my X2V2 mini today, I definitely like it a lot better than the Dav3 pro and the GPX2.
The latest Ironcat mouse has the exact same scroll wheel assembly
i had problems with the sidebuttons on the original gpro getting loose and coming off from time to time. i would have bought the x2v2 if they had normal sidebuttons.
The side button PCB sitting on the top is quite prone to bending even from daily use. Once that happens, the structural integrity would be harmed and the mouse could start creaking due to top shell flex. Surely one can open up the mouse and correct the PCB back straight though.
if you grip it like the hulk sure. modded without the sides like this the mouse is fine... relax the grip otherwise you will get RSI :-p
@@Beardedbob I swear that I only grabbed it with the strength of a normal human being lol! Whether it was due to the screws being tightened unevenly or other reasons. IDK. Still, I would suggest those being troubled by any creaking issue to check the PCB straightness.
So I've heard quality control isn't great with them. Is that true?
I've got a copy 5 days ago, my only complaint is the pre-travel in the m1 and m2 buttons. I don't know if it's worth complaining and getting it returned, as with every mouse I've had it has always had something I don't like about it and this seems to be the least of all them problems.
Looks solid!
Yep imo these are the benchmark atm
Omg its solder free. i can easy disassemble and hotswap these on my x2v2 mini o_o , very nice.
Hey, can i ship my mouse to you so you can mod it, fix post/pre travel, add new switches? if so, where can i contact you?
Sure can, go to shop.beardedbob.com
Can I swap the x2v2 pcb into the old pulsar x1 shell?
They seen very similar probably same screwholes?
have you figured this out yet because this is something i want to do really badly
Thinking about replacing the RAESHA opticals with razer opticals. Any other ideas on how to fix the pre travel?
Yes they hot swap no problem.
The pre-travel i've done a video on it for the superlight it will work on this mouse also, failing that turn into a few live streams I do a lot on there to fix these issues. www.twitch.tv/beardedbob
Would you say the Razer optical feels nicer in the X2V2?@@Beardedbob
@@Beardedbob For the v1, the solder was so hard to get off I broke the bed for the solder. Can you do a video on removing these solvers?
after using the 4k dongle and switching back to the original dongle, my battery life has gone to 3 hours at best even at 1k hz so something is definitely up with my unit, i have custom painted the shell too so its such a pain... luckily i have a 2nd x2v2 that my partner uses so im gonna swap just the shells round so the custom painted one has the better battery - i think ill take a look at the battery while im swapping the shells and see if anything looks off compared to your unit, maybe i can work out whats gone wrong
1k should be a week
@@Beardedbob i used it over a month before the 4k dongle became available and it performed as expected, like i say, ever since pairing with the 4k dongle, even after going back to the original dongle, the battery is completely fucked
@@MattysEditsthat sucks. I get about 3 full days with the 4k dongle. Definitely gonna have to RMA it
@@Adamn58 just an update, i bought a replacement 150mAh battery on aliexpress and installed it and it works fine, i get over 2 full days at 4k polling which is enough for me to be satisfied especially considering the weight reduction - it lasted a good 5 days at 1k even with the lower capacity
Can you put the razer v2 pro internal on that x2v2 shell?
Why bother 🤷🏼♂️…
bend a piece of plastic to click, what an incredible engineering advance ...
You haven’t seen what others use 😂
Would I be able to do a x2v2 pcb swap and throw in into an x2 shell?
Not sure you would need to compare the teardowns and see if they align.
Is the pulsar x2v2 better then the lamzu mini right now? cant decide between the two mice
Both are good I would take either.
My encoder stopped working and replacing it made the offset button not work. The click was also mushy for me. Can i just replace it with any mouse 3 micro switch that fits there or does it have to be a full size one like they have in there?
By not work, I mean I can't click it
I would suggest you just order a kailh red 9mm, the pulsar blue encoders of the x2v2 and x2h lineup seem to be just a rebranded version of those. The second (fixed, at least what they promised) batch of the x2 lineup had modified ttc gold with a blue shell encoders, at least that's what it seems to me i got.
Raesha (aka LK) are the same company that makes Razer optical switches which is used in this mouse.
Sure is, you can see me swap them with razers in this video
oh so that's who makes my a75 magnetic keyboard switches
I love the scroll wheel mechanism. Very cool
Yes great design
Anyone else having the issue I am having with the X2H? My right click feels like it is stuck sometimes when I first click it. takes more force to press it down and you can feel it break away from whatever is causing it to stick.
Could be maylar tape or something sticky on the plunger or a dodgy switch
@@Beardedbob It might be. Really dont feel like sending it back. So this might become my first mouse I take apart and try and shed some weight on. I have issues gripping mice too tight ,so I've been too scared to remove weight on a mouse.
So, a Korean guy passing by. Since Pulsar is in Korea, we've got a lot of hate/love going on in the mice community here.
And I say this cuz we stripped down a lot of batches. We've come to find that in the top most plunger protruding from the click buttons, you can find a set of supergrips. They act as dampers that make contact with the bottom part of the mouse. But since supergrips are initially really sticky, it makes this 'two-step-sticky-click' feel. Just like Bob suspected. Removing them solves the problem, and you may apply teflon tape or something instead, but it is not necessary. It solves all click problems reported in reeddit, both the x2v2s and x2hs. Hope it helps
@@nonri500 Yo thanks for the advice. I'll give that a shot. And I prefer Korean brands over Chinese brands. Main reason I havent picked up a Lamzu yet.
@@jasonjennings8465 No problem. I guess its nice to hear that you prefer Korean brands(?). Chinese products are really catching up tho. We all buying zaopins and VGNs here as well. Lamzu is pretty solid too. I know China is kinda infamous for cheap, trash quality products and all, but mice and IEMs are actually quiet decent.
Nonetheless, hope the advice works for ya.
really wish they included blanks for the side buttons, i always press the back side button on accident while browsing, super annoying tbh
Yeah not sure why they aren’t given they are magnetic
alternatively you can just take them off
I did told you the buttons are magnetic in your PayDay 3 stream but you didn't believe me :(
its the bit I don't get about the mouse.. no blanking plates included either.
@@Beardedbob They probably want to reuse the same tooling on the X2A with the X2V2 for cost-effectiveness.
Wait, so I can put in the Razer optical switches into my x2H instead of their switches ?!
Yup, straight swap no solder
@@Beardedbob omg I’m so happy, I was JUST about to ship my x2H back for a refund cause of the switches but now I’m definitely putting in some razer opticals!
@@frenzyio Both Razer and Pulsar uses the exact same brand and model of switches but Razer put their logo on theirs.
@@paul2609 wait whattttttttt? Maybe it’s a shell thing on why they don’t feel as snappy as my viper v2
Almost got that mouse if they didnt accept my model o wireless rma
have you got a new MOW then? what broke on it?
yea they shipped me a new one free of charge because the scroll wheel broke entirely out of nowhere and it seemed to be a more common issue@@Beardedbob
I’m honestly more surprised people aren’t as impressed with this mouse. I can’t go back to razer lmao
Don’t blame you Razer products atm suck
its japanese, you know its good!
Differences quality wise between v2 and h?
Logitech superlight vs x2v2?
Pulsar for me, I prefer this shame.. The X2h atm is nice for me
I hope you mean "shape" not shame haha @@Beardedbob
8:00 the optical switches are trash... was enough for me to return the X2V2 :(
They can "crunch" sometimes on first click? Get caught on something? The plunger activation isn't smooth.
And they're mushy... not crispy.
I’m yet to find a decent opto mech
It's caused by the glue of the plunger inside the mouse, you can remove the teflon in the plunger and clean the adhesive.
@@paul2609 well there you go. glue => cheaply made. Why even use these switches? How could they think this is an improvement over huano mechnicals? If they really wanted decent opticals, there are plenty of better options like omron's or kailh's...
