Keeping your computer mouse clean and functioning optimally is essential for smooth operation and accurate tracking. In this article, we will provide helpful tips on cleaning and maintaining your mouse to ensure it performs at its best.

1. Clean the optical sensor or laser port area:

To resolve common mouse issues, it's important to clean the optical sensor or laser port area underneath the mouse. Disassembling the mouse is unnecessary for this task. Here's how to do it:

- Using a clean Q-tip lightly moistened with water, gently clean the optical sensor or laser port area. Make sure not to saturate the Q-tip.

2. Identifying Your Mouse Model:

To determine your mouse model, follow these steps:

- Logitech's website may not instantly display the model information you're looking for, but simply checking the bottom of the mouse should reveal the model number.

3. Adjusting Mouse DPI:

DPI (dots per inch) settings allow you to customize the sensitivity or speed of your mouse. While some mice have dedicated buttons to change DPI on the fly, others require adjusting settings in the control panel. Here's how to modify mouse DPI:

- For retail game players who require frequent speed changes, look for a mouse with a dedicated DPI button. This allows you to conveniently adjust the mouse sensitivity without having to access the control panel.

- Some mice come with software programs that enable customization of button functions. This allows you to assign specific actions to each button, not just for gaming but also for everyday tasks like pasting, accessing favorites, or opening the homepage.

4. Proper Mouse Cleaning:

To maintain the cleanliness of your computer mouse, follow these steps:

- Avoid using a wet cloth to clean the mouse. Instead, use some alcohol and Q-tips for a thorough clean. Unscrew the bottom piece, remove the ball, and clean it using alcohol. Then, lightly scrub the contacts inside the hole with the alcohol-dampened Q-tip. Make sure no fibers are left behind after cleaning. Note: There are cleaning kits available, but they generally use the same methodology described above.

- Don't forget to clean the mouse pad as well. Use alcohol and a cloth to wipe it clean.

- Remember to wash your hands before using the computer to minimize the dirt and oil transferred to the mouse.

- If you have a tower computer, it's advisable not to place it on the floor as dirt kicked up in the air can enter the system. Instead, elevate it on a table or desk to minimize this issue.

5. Dealing with Mouse Infestation:

Discovering a mouse in your house can be alarming, but here are some steps to address the situation:

- Confirm the presence of a mouse by either sighting it directly or noticing its droppings.

- Obtain mouse traps and place them strategically along the edges of walls, cabinets, or any areas frequented by the mouse. Mice tend to stick close to edges rather than open spaces.

- For kitchen sightings, position traps discreetly near the fridge as mice are attracted to the warmth produced by the appliance.

- In the basement, use zip ties to attach traps to pipes running along the edges of walls. Mice often use these as "highways."

- If the infestation persists, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance to inspect and seal any cracks or openings in your home. Mice can squeeze through tiny openings, so even small cracks should be addressed to prevent further infestations.

By following these simple tips, you can proactively maintain and optimize your computer mouse's performance while effectively tackling any mouse-related issues that may arise.

There are always many first times in life

Touching the computer for the first time, touching the keyboard for the first time

First time playing bluetooth keyboard

first time playing mechanical keyboard

This time there was a new first—my first touch with a custom keyboard.

The so-called customized keyboard is to purchase keyboard components to assemble the keyboard you need, which is the same as assembling your own computer. The process of customizing the keyboard is the process of purchasing computer accessories and building a computer yourself. The advantage of a customized keyboard is that you can customize a unique keyboard according to your own usage habits. Even the keys of the keyboard you are familiar with can be customized according to your preferences.

The advantage of a customized keyboard is that the customized keyboard can very well meet your own requirements and meet your individual needs.

This time I started with the Keychron Q1, which is a high-end customized 75% all-metal mechanical keyboard. Every part of the keyboard supports players to replace it by themselves, not to mention the keycaps and shafts. Even the base and rubber pad of the keyboard can be replaced to bring you a comfortable typing experience. The layout is practical but stylish, the quality is luxurious, and the customization is the biggest selling point of Keychron Q1.

First impressions of the Keychron Q1 all-aluminum body customized mechanical keyboard

When I got the keychron Q1, I was still shocked by its weight. It was the first time I encountered such a heavy keyboard.

The packaging of the box is still very simple. The front is the product map and model of the box, and the back is some basic parameters of the keyboard. Overall, there is no big difference from other keyboards except for the weight.

Open the box and you will see our protagonist Keychron Q1. The keyboard shell is made of anodized aluminum, and the texture is very good when you touch it with your hands. There is almost no displacement when you put this keyboard on the table. Even if you play games to the point of excitement, this keyboard will still be firmly fixed on your desk.

Keychron Q1 has a variety of colors for you to choose from. I chose green and phantom red switches. You can also choose black and white or blue version. The size of the product is 327.5*145*44.3mm, the overall size is not too small, it is very suitable to be placed on the desk. This keyboard can be adapted to Apple MacOS and Windows dual systems. The connection method adopts a more stable wired connection method. It is worth mentioning that it uses a very good quality dual Type-C aviation plug-in cable, and it also has a Type-A interface.

As a customized keyboard, the lighting effect mode is naturally indispensable. Keychron Q1 has a total of 13 lighting effect modes, press fn+A to switch forward, and fn+Z to switch backward.

Keychron Q1 all-aluminum body customized mechanical keyboard user experience

As a customized keyboard, first of all, as a keyboard, players are most concerned about the appearance and function of the keyboard. As I said before, the whole body is made of 6063 aluminum and CNC integrated engraving technology, which makes this keyboard look very high, even as a desktop decoration is very good. The polished, sandblasted finish gives this keyboard a great metallic feel. It is very comfortable to touch by hand.

Beauty experience

Don't talk about anything else, just post the photos.

Functional experience

KeychronQ1 is a 75% key layout. Compared with the full-size keyboard, what is missing are some functional keys. It fully supports QMK and VIA, you can easily program every key on the keyboard. Moreover, it is an open source firmware, which means that the layout of the keyboard, shortcut keys, and background effect lights can all be customized.

Gasket Design adopts a suspended fixed structure in the middle. This structure is more expensive than the traditional screw-fixed circuit board design, but this design allows the circuit board to be suspended in the air, which can give players a better typing experience. However, if the keyboard is assembled according to the standard configuration, the resonance phenomenon is too obvious, which will affect the experience. If you change it a little by yourself, the effect will be very good, with that crisp raindrop effect.

The shafts are Gateron phantom shafts. These shafts can provide accurate consistency and smooth feeling in every press. The phantom shafts are pre-lubricated, which has less wobble and adds more stability. There are three kinds of axes in total, namely Phantom Red, Phantom Blue, and Phantom Tea.

Finally, I would like to give you a suggestion.

Although it is also the first time for me to come into contact with a customized keyboard, but because of work, I still have some understanding of the customized keyboard. If you come into contact with customized keyboards for the first time, don’t choose ones that are too low in price. This kind of low-end customized keyboards will have many small problems. After all, you need to do it yourself. Try to choose some high-quality products. keychronQ1 is a good choice. The price is not very high, and the playability is also very strong.

Nowadays, many friends use mobile phones to participate in online meetings or conduct authorization authentication at work, so they often have to switch between computers, mobile phones, and tablets. At this time, they need to use the keyboard for a while and use the screen for a while, which is very inconvenient. If Equipped with a set of keyboard and mouse equipment that can connect multiple devices, it will be much easier to work.

At present, I am using a domestic keyboard of about 100 yuan, and it is very small and can be easily stored in a backpack. Sometimes it can be used when I need to work at home. The Shuangfei Yanfei Era FBX51C keyboard I used is very beautiful, and it should be welcomed by many students. This keyboard has many colors. I chose a cherry blossom pink color, and an additional one of the same color FB10C Bluetooth mouse.

This keyboard adopts a 78-key layout with a relatively compact structure. With the scissor foot structure, it is particularly thin and compact, which greatly improves the portability of the keyboard itself, and is very convenient for storage and access. In addition, this keyboard also has sufficient function keys to help improve the efficiency of daily office work.

In terms of compatibility, Feishidai FBX51C can support Bluetooth and 2.4G connection methods, and can match four devices at the same time, and can switch between four devices smoothly during use, and the system compatibility is very good, including Windows and MacOS, As well as iOS and Android devices, the characters of the buttons are also optimized for multiple platforms, so you don't have to work hard to distinguish the buttons of different platforms.

I have used this keyboard for about a week. I feel that its overall workmanship is pretty good, the details are finely processed, and it has an excellent feel. The area of ​​the keycap itself is designed reasonably, so it feels very good in actual operation, and the key distance The control is reasonable. Compared with ordinary keyboards, this kind of scissors key travel is very short, only 1.5mm, and the rebound is very stable, so the response is very sensitive, and it is more comfortable to type in the office.

As a small and portable keyboard, Feidai FBX51C itself has a fixed angle, which not only ensures portability, but also improves the operating experience when typing. There are non-slip feet on the back of the keyboard, which brings good anti-slip performance. It will be more stable when typing.

You can find a wealth of function keys on this keyboard, which can complete many common operations, and can also set the Fn lock mode. In actual use, I feel that this design is particularly useful on tablets, mobile phones and other devices, and you can directly use the keyboard Complete a lot of operations, when using multiple devices, you only need to switch briefly, without taking out your mobile phone.

In terms of battery life, I think the performance of FBX51C is very good. It is designed with a built-in battery. The battery capacity is 300mAh. The interface is charged, so in daily use, the power is basically a problem that we don't need to consider.

Another Feishidai FB10C mouse I use is also a dual-mode design, which can connect various devices through Bluetooth and 2.4G. This mouse can match three devices at the same time, and can also switch between multiple devices, and can support Windows, MacOS, Android and other systems are very suitable for friends who need mobile office.

As a mouse, Flytimes FB10C can also support four-speed CPI speed adjustment, ranging from 1200 to 2400, which is convenient to adapt to devices with different resolutions and obtain a smoother operating experience. Its speed adjustment button is on the front of the mouse. , it is very convenient to use. When switching between different devices, you can adjust the CPI at any time, so as to obtain a more comfortable operating experience.

After using it for a while recently, I feel that Shuangfeiyan’s scissor keyboard is quite convenient to use. It not only has a stylish and beautiful design, but also supports multi-device connection. It is very practical for friends who have home office or study needs. The equipment, together with the FB10C mouse, can handle daily work more easily, and the battery life of these two devices is also long enough to be used at any time.

Hello everyone, I am Yueyue. I wonder if you have noticed that the keyboard ring has become more and more voluminous and more colorful in the past two years. At the same time, more and more new brands have entered the keyboard market. This time I received a three-mode mechanical keyboard - Z830 from Miwu Technology, a relatively new brand for key rings. It is also this keyboard that made me feel how terrible the big brands can be rolled up. Then let's not talk nonsense, just take a look at this keyboard.

The packaging quality of the keyboard is good, which is different from the cheap feeling of other new brands. The design of the packaging box of this keyboard is also carefully thought out. There are many game-style elements designed around the theme of the keyboard 'game' on the packaging box. When you open the package, you can see the card-type manual and the main body of the keyboard, which are wrapped in a dust bag. The accessories of the keyboard provide a conventional C-port charging cable, key puller, shaft puller, and 7 additional keycaps. There is no dust cover in the keyboard package, which is a bit of a pity.

The appearance of the keyboard is designed in gray, old white, and red. When I first saw the keyboard, I had a feeling of deja vu. Isn’t this the color scheme of the “Xiaobawang” game console I played when I was a child. The ABS material used for the shell of the keyboard, coupled with the matte surface design, makes the overall keyboard a bit of a memory-killing taste. In terms of gradient design, this keyboard is designed to be relatively flat, but it provides a three-stage foot support , you can adjust to a suitable inclination angle according to your habits.

The top of the keyboard is where the design of the Miwujia keyboard is more distinctive. The gray top bar at the top provides keyboard switches, mode switching buttons, C-port charging port, and a very convenient Win /Mac switch key, and a storage port for a 2.4G receiver, these two design points are very well received. Although it looks like a simple design, there are many keyboards that just can’t do it.

In the upper left corner of the top bar is the indicator light area of ​​the keyboard, where you can easily see the link status of the device, yes, this is a three-mode wireless keyboard, and Bluetooth supports linking 3 devices, the linked Stability In my own indoor use scene, there is basically no disconnection, and the wake-up speed of Bluetooth and 2.4 is also good.

The keycaps of this keyboard use the original factory height, the layout of 83 keys and 75 columns, and the production process uses PBT material sublimation process, the printing level of the characters is very good, the handwriting is clear, and it also revolves around the "game" The theme has made some designs. The matte of the keycap is a fine matte, which feels more delicate. If you are not a friend with severe hand sweat, you should not have the problem of oiling. The arrow keys in the lower right corner of the keyboard use the red color of the Famicom, which makes the overall design of the keyboard very nostalgic. Of course, if you feel that the red color is more abrupt and want to be more plain, you can also use the white arrow keys included in the package. The design just changed the color to white.

After taking off the keycaps, I came to the second highlight of this keyboard. The shaft body of this keyboard is the G Yellow Pro of Jiadalong, which I like very much, and its positioning board uses a PC positioning board. I can't help but check the details of the keyboard again. It turns out that this keyboard has a Gasket structure, and it is introduced on the details page that the keyboard is designed with Gasket gaskets and sound-absorbing cotton, which also makes the keyboard's The sound and feel performance is already very good without any treatment at the factory. Only the space bar is not dull enough because the grease on the satellite axis is relatively restrained, so there are some slight noises. After thickening, the whole keyboard The feel and sound of the keyboard are even better than the keyboards I have dealt with now.

Since the details page mentioned that the keyboard is full of materials, I just disassemble it here to see if there is room for modification inside. There are 8 hexagonal screws on the back of the keyboard. After unscrewing, the keyboard can be separated. After separating the upper cover, you can see the PC positioning plate. The thickness of the positioning plate is relatively thick, which leads to the fact that the keyboard does not have any Obvious sag. To be honest, I understand this design quite well. After all, this is a mass-produced keyboard. If you want to ensure the stability of use, you have to find a balance between the sense of hearing and stability. After all, not every consumer Both are customized users.

It can be seen that a large piece of sound-absorbing cotton is filled between the positioning board and the main control board. The material is EVA. After unplugging the battery cable, it can be completely separated. A whole piece of sound-absorbing cotton is also made of EVA. In the middle of the sound-absorbing cotton is the battery of the keyboard. The capacity is 4000 mAh, which is considered a relatively large battery.

After the keyboard is disassembled, it can be seen that the overall stacking of the keyboard is quite sufficient, and Gasket gaskets are also added on the four sides of the keyboard, but due to the thicker positioning plate and the existence of the bottom shell positioning column, the keyboard has an elastic effect. Not so obvious. If you pursue the ultimate, you can consider unscrewing the positioning column, then remove the eight screws fixed at the bottom, fix the positioning plate through the buckle of the sky and earth cover, and then fill the bottom with sound-absorbing cotton yourself, and those who are capable can do it again In theory, the bottom pad of the axle can maximize the Gasket property of the keyboard, but to be honest, I personally think that the current performance of the keyboard is completely sufficient, at least it is much better than the performance of a copy in my hand.

Oh, by the way, the lighting of this keyboard is also relatively rich, providing 18 different RGB lighting effects. If it is a Win system, you can also customize the lighting and macros through the driver, but I use a Mac system, and I am I am a person who uses white light all the year round, so the lighting effect is not my focus for me. What I like more is that under the Mac system, the shortcut keys of this keyboard can be operated with one key without using key combinations.

After reading the situation of the above keyboard, I don’t know if you have any psychological expectations for the price of this keyboard. The news I got is that the daily retail price of this keyboard is 449 yuan, and the price of the first event is 399 yuan. I don’t know this Whether the price can meet your expectations, I personally think that the price/performance ratio of this keyboard is already very high, and it can basically achieve the level of ready-to-use. If you have a certain pursuit of the feel and hearing of the keyboard, but you don't want to do it yourself, then the performance of this keyboard will not let you down.
