In this video, I’ll guide you through the entire process of converting your MX Master 2’s charging port to USB-C. This mod not only brings your mouse up to date with the latest technology but also contributes to an eco-friendly approach by prolonging the life of your device.

Very nice idea and thanks for providing me with one of your USB-C-boards! It's worth to mention that there are different versions of the board. In my case, I needed to solder ground directly to the capacitor, since I didn't find any ground close to the port. I had two soldering points directly next to it (one with 5v, one with ground - don't use this one for ground, since it will make the capacitor useless, as ground will be before the capacitor then). Hope this helps someone.
No worries, thank you for mentioning this. As components get discontinued Logitech might need to adjust their board even within the same MX mouse version. I'll pin this comment for others to see.
Thanks for the note! Just wondering, do you have the original MX Master? Or is it the MX Master 2 like Tomas?
@@manii175 it's the MX Master. That might explain it 😉 But obviously Tomas board also works for that one.
Even better then what I was looking for! I´d like to buy one of those boards if they still are available!
thank you, Patrik. Send me an email or contact me through my website. I got a few left
Amazing. I'm on a mission to find diy's to convert all my usb to usbc!
Question, with your board, you mentioned it was very simple etc, does this mean i wouldn't be able to plug it into the pc and have all normal functionality?
No you still have full functionality. The mx master never had a wired in option, the data of your movements is still happening over Bluetooth. The micro usb or usb c only does power.
Hi great video, do you have any PCB's left?
Great job, very elegant solution. I would interested in a pcb or gerber files for the pcb if you wouldnt mind sending them. Thanks
Hey Andy, I still have batch of 3 PCBs left to give away. Send me an email at tomas.apolonia@gmail.com
Thank you for your kindness!
Unfortunately, I live in another country. Delivery to me will be very expensive.
I was thinking of making the board myself.@@TomasApolonia
Well done good sir
good job
Great idea! Can you give me scheme of custom PCB? thanks
Do you still have any PCB’s left over? or maybe if you could send me schematic 👍
Great idea, but $30 including shipping seems really expensive for a simple breadboard.
Fair enough, feel free to take inspo from my board and design and fab your own :)
@@TomasApolonia That's exactly what I did. I ended up buying generic mini USB-C Boards from Amazon 10 board for $9. I would have considered buying one of your boards for something reasonable like $10, but $30 is a freaking joke. That's just straight up greed, good job losing a potential sale.
No problem, glad my design helped you.
Great video , from where i can get the pcb board ?
Hey Porter, I released a new video as my boards are back in stock. TLDR: you can now buy them directly on tindie at. www.tindie.com/products/33549/
@@TomasApoloniaThanks
do you have any spare pcb with usb c lying around?
Hi, you're lucky I have one left. Planning on making a new batch as demand is higher than I expected. Send me an email or message me through my website, happy to send you the last one.
Do you shipped to the US?
Yep!
Great idea! you are master) Can you give me scheme of custom PCB?
sure, but I'm happy to send you a PCB I have a few laying around, just pay for shipping
