My Secret Weapon for Gaming Mice! (not clickbait)

- This is my secret weapon to customize gaming mice for the best possible control and anti slip coating. Grip tape for a gaming mouse can be a massive upgrade for aiming, control and a ton of other things. Here's why I'm using it more and more lately....on gaming mice, gaming keyboards and yes, even my PC case!

I wasn't expecting the razor ones that you only put where you want them to be that great, but I tried them at at your recommendation anyways, since I'm not a fan of my current grip tape. I was very surprised. I'm glad I gave them a try. Will probably be using these for life.
Good to hear!
I've been using grip tape on my Viper Mini, I felt way more precise since day one. I don't know why it isn't more comum.
I love my griptape, but the razer universale one even if you clean your mouse it will come off in about a month, or the adhesive starts to come off and sticks to your hand. Not a bid deal because it gives you quite a bit of it. Just annoying to reapply
They make grip tape for firearms as well that are a bit cheaper for a larger sheet you can cut yourself. It's worked beautifully for my VR controllers, excellent grip and the adhesive is still strong after a year and a half. No clue how the texture compares to the mouse specific ones, but definitely worth checking out as an option.
I bought cheap thin gun tape and it's good enough
oh shit thank u good sir. will def check em out once i feel i need to replace mine
I have the Hotline ones for G502, they are dirty cheap here, they are excellent also good for tiny repairs on the G502 side that runnout with time. Also Hotline do have a universal one that you can cut in any format that you want, and it is the same price as the cutted ones.
How does the adhesive affect the mouse after a long time? Does it damage or stain the mouse?
Can someone recommend a kit for G305? I bought one but after months the glue start to delaminate to the slides and breaks down very badly
How exactly do you lift your mouse with your fingers on the primary buttons?
PRO TIP:
Buy a roll/sheet of grip tape
If you want to cut the tape EXACTLY like your mice,
Simply stick masking tape,
draw out the outline requires on the masking tape roughly
peel off the masking tape and stick it on TOP of the Grip tape sheet,
Refine the outline on the masking tape
Proceed to use the masking outline as a template to cut the grip sheet.
I wonder how heat resistant the adhesives are, because i've had things like this that let go after a few hours of my hands warming it up
Thanks for the heads up.
I bought the Razer Deathadder V3 wireless a few months ago, wanting to swap out my wired Deathadder V2 for a wireless option. Out of the box the V3 came smooth with optional grip tape, and I tried for awhile in that configuration, but the mouse felt slippery and my aim in FPS games was mediocre when before it wasn't too shabby. Nothing like trickshot good, but more flickshot decent. However I eventually got around to trying out the grip tape for the V3, and what a world of difference! The mouse feels completely under control, and where my pinky used to drag a little off the edge (I have big hands, hence using the Deathadder to begin with) I no longer had that problem after applying the grip tape. It's such a minor difference, but the results speak for themselves. The mouse feels under more of my control, my hand rests comfortably on the shell, and my aim is back to where I can improve upon it instead of feeling like I got sent back in progress from having a lousy mouse.
wich mouse do you think is the best to get wired and wireless?
Can somebody pls navigate me where to get original Razer grip tape for DA V3 Pro for the wired version? Original packaging doesn't have it which is a bummer. Razer website only has grips for DA in general meaning main clicks + palm grip. With Razer V3 Pro you have main clicks + SIDE grips. I much prefer side grip tape over palm. Any help is welcome if such thing exists as original product.
I use gun grip tape usually but Ill look at the price of the branded ones for the future if its worth it. Any grip stuff will make a difference. Im not a competitive guy but I love the feel and control it adds.
I tried using that kind of tape on a mouse before but it actually made my hand sweat more.
Lizard skins (bats grips) have been a great option that’s affordable.
@@linkplayshalo14 can vouch
Hey @Dmitry, amazing review as always! Im using my DAV3 at 4Khz, love this flippin thing!
Just a small tiny correction @5:04, is that the xlite v2? or the new X2?
Great Video. I actually never even thought of that but imma try it by definite
(Liked the arc 3.0 gameplay btw xD)
Thx, good info!
Gotta try some grip tape on my Logitech G502 lightspeed. Been using the mouse for 2.5 years or maybe even longer by now and due to the pandemic and increased usage the material got shiny and pretty smoothed out faster than usual sadly.
I've been using BT-L grips from lethal gaming gear for years they work wonderfully with many colors and mice to pick from
Works great on my GameBall trackball buttons!
I used talon grip and hockey grip tape, but glad to see companies finally making and including grip tape for there mouse
I just got back into Destiny and been using Razer universal grip tape on my g pro x super light. _and_ I tape the right button w/naked left, strip for the thumb & hex where the ring finger rests. Then I tape the ‘back’ button but not the forward button bc ‘back’ is throw nade and the other is switch nade, so gotta find it quick.
The viper one works in V2 Pro?
Yessir it’s always a good day when this man hops on
i used the razer universal grips bcuz razer didnt give me grips in my deathadder v2 mini althought they are supposed to it is good and sticky and definetly reccomend it
i got the glorious grip tape for my model d, main reason being to cover up the holes as they dont mix with sweaty hands very well, but the fact that its sort of elastic doesnt really help as over time it stretches into the holes, so its almost impossible to clean. the added grip is nice tho. also it was 10 bucks and still says 10 bucks on the site.
i saw the model d pro and conceptually wise its perfect. model d shape, wireless with wired mode, AND NO HOLES, but the colors are shit. why glorious why. i wouldve 100% gotten one if it werent for the colors. also adopting the group buy practice is kinda shitty
Do they make it in white?
Love it! Need it
What brand are your glasses?
can we attach the grip tape under the mouse where the glides are so that we can get extra grip and so the ur mouse cant run away from you?
Get a slower mousepad for that
Can't say I have ever found the need for grip tape, but I also have a chonkers size mouse in the ROCCAT Tyon, Wich is sadly out of production, and I can't find anything quite as comfortable, if I could find this mouse, with the same layout/size but a better sensor I would be in love. SOme weight reduction would probably help too, however I would give wireless a shot still if the weight was kept at/below the current
i used a 1$ mousepad to make custom grip for my G402 i rip the cloth from the front then cut the mousepad rubber according to my hand placement and stick it with supperglue it feels amazing
The included razer grip tape is amazing, but the BTL, corepad, lizard skins are all way thicker. why??
What game is the one at 0:32?
I have a glossy cooler master mm710, feels like I don't have much grip ngl especially when my hands get oily or sweaty so I really am considering grip tape.
As a rule of thumb, matte coating > gloss for sweaty hands. I had to return the mm710 gloss after one day, because it was impossible to use consistently, while the matte version was fine
I got grips for Basilisk, Viper, and the universal all Razer. Love them. Won't be using a mouse without grips ever again. Razer needs to make a lighter weight Basilisk though, if they can do it for the Deathadder they should truly do it for the Basilisk. Im only asking for 75 grams with RGB it's very possible, just make it like the V2 but with the good specs like the viper V2 pro.
never felt like trying grip tape, but i probably will now, so thanks
Haha i believe BTL and Corepads grip tapes are the top of the line right now. I use corepad grips and it adds minimal width while being very grippy
Was expecting a grip tape for free front the Razer deathadder v2 mini. Lots of YT vids showed it had that in the package. Sadly mine didn't come with it. Had to improvise and cut a rubberized anti slip phone pad thingy. Works good enough.
All the new mice I have ordered from any brand I have not had a single thing of grip tape come with them unless it's a addon item.
I did not know you also played Destiny 2. Very nice game.
Never felt I needed grip tape with the GPXS. Did acutally come with some I should at least I try it I guess. I love the egg feeling of the GPXS tho.
Love using grip tape on my mice 🙌
you should try the lizard skin bat grip
i couldnt agree more. i gripped up my coolermaster mm720 with the included stuff, and it's great.
Right!?
wear of built in rubber grips is really not a problem... I'm using my g403 since 5 years and the grips are still great. If anything they improved over time because they formed little comfort groves where i rest my fingers.
And before that i was using a mionix mouse, the grips on that mouse are still fine, too. But aftermarket grips people usually replace every couple months from what i've heard...
G502 link please
IDK if these are necessarily secret weapons, but pretty good tips nonetheless!
Lethal gaming’s BT.L grips are definitely my go to on my logitech superlight
I have used my Razer Viper V2 pro without grips because I didnt like the black grips look on the white mouse, but one day I tried it and afterwards I am not going back - the control is worth the sacrifice of looks for sure
yep same experience here. i didnt think the grip tape would have as much of an effect as it really does. microadjustments are wayy easier for example
BTL grips are my favorites by far after trying 5 different ones :)
The hotline grips are not on the same level as lizard skin or BTL grips
I have BTL grips for my superlight, and found them to be pretty shit. The glue doesn't stay in place, it bulges out from beneath the grips and eventually will come off on your hands, leaving less glue holding the grip to the mouse and causing them to slip more and more until they fall off. Probably endemic to all of these dumb mouse grips. I haven't tried sports tape but I think that would do a much better job. The sort of stuff that you'd put on a tennis racket or hockey stick.
using the grip tape that came with the g pro superlight
DIY with tennis overgrip and double side tape.
I love Lizard skin, so soft and so grippy
When are we going to have the Legion 5 review please? 🥺
is there grip tape for corsair scimitar pro ?
Sure just use the universal one
@@HardwareCanucks would you have a good one to recommend? Thanks!
what is the name of that game?
I just used thhe sticker which comes with the razer mouse for the grip tape and it works fine😂😂
Gimme some of that Stippled Grip Tape for that faster ADS and Sprint to fire speed.
Even though I have rather sweaty hands, I still didn't really notice the need for extra grip. I'd say it's also definitely important what coating mouse is using, even aside from surface texture. Using the latest matte black Zowie mouse with new coating. As for mouse skates, I saw the glass skates, would be fun to try though I have glasspad heh.
idk if glass on glass would work too well tbh. maybe for a bit but i feel like they might scratch each other easily
glass on glass results in a lot of scratching and is not reccomended
I have a wonderful condition called hyperhydrosis, so I get sweaty palms pretty easily, I use this dragon scale grip tape on my mice and its awesome, able to pick up the mouse properly and its also super easy to clean.
Just wondering, how do you clean your grips? I try to use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol and a cloth to wipe off any grime, but I'm afraid that it will eventually wear down the grippy texture.
im honestly curious if i have hyperhidrosis as my hands get sweaty pretty easily and in general i just sweat a lot. like my hands are pretty soft, im assuming from the sweat, and they have absolutely no grip if they are dry. so i need get a tiny bit of sweat going to have grip on anything. i sometimes find myself wiping my hands on my pants or shirt during a gaming session. it could be a really casual and non competitive game too and ill still sweat. also idk about u but sometimes it seems like after i shower or something my hands will end up being really sweaty like if i use my phone or computer. like id see wet marks on my phone. its not always but occasionally. i have no idea what causes it.
Get a roll of 1 or 2” wide gaffer tape. You’ll find 1000 other good uses for it and it’s cheaper and grippy but soft and isn’t $15 for just your mouse buttons.
0:40 which game?
Grip tape is a game changer!
That was the best heartfelt one-sentence game recommendation I've encountered
It's SO GOOD
just a question for my fellow dav3 owners, does the grip tape on the right side of the mouse feel super uncomfortable for anyone else or is that just me?
I had the viper mini with grip tape and switched over to the g pro wireless and bought some BTL grips and they are a million times better than razer's grip tape
actually you can try safety grip tape, kinda rough enough
hockey tape does the trick
More love for one finger death Punch is always appreciated. That game is amazing
When i've got Logitech GPW Superlight i was thinking - wtf are these weird grip stickers included in the package. One day i've applied them. Damn they re good. This is the different level of control and if i will change mouse to any other - i will definitely find some grip tape to put on it.
BTW there is a good priced grip tape - it is called Lizard Skins and is used by hokkey players on their equipment.
Not gonna lie, the most surprising thing in this video was seeing Destiny 2 game play in the B-roll lol
“2. It can make it feel bigger”
* grabs gaffer tape and looks down *
lamoooo was looking for this comment
As someone who self-diagnosed himself with hyperhydrosis, I have a fair share of griptapes usage, and out of all the uses He said on the video, I personally think having Razer smaller sized hexagonal tape on keyboard would benefit me the most as I always stuggle with oily/slippery keys.
Also, I have tried plenty griptapes from LizardSkins to Corepads and from actual skateboard grips to badminton racket grips. All of them become slippery after a few use, except from skateboard grips ofcourse.
What griptapes would you recommend for cases like mine?
Have you tried Cattongue? The tape is durable and super grippy, and the material is quite dense(almost solid compared to Razer's rubber).
.It isn't pre-cut, but you get a generous amount of tape to play with.
@@artyomloukashov636 not yet, I am now using supergrip tape by pulsar. Will try the cattoungue grips if I ever have problems with pulsar's. Thanks
How many people have their mouse go flying from their hand as they twist around for a sweet quick scope headie, go flying into the wall, shattering into pieces, and getting a piece embedded in your foot two days later? I can't be the only one...
BURY THE LIGHT DEEP WITHIN!
What is the game called ?
Destiny 2
Corepad and lizardskinz are my top 2 grips. Corepads being thinner and lizardskinz being thick.
Aren't both a lot more expensive??
@@HardwareCanucks about $10 before shipping
I only like the grip tape on the side not on the clicks
There's grip tape specifically cut for the G502 and I love the feel! Sure it's good for gaming, but it's great for everyday-use and comfort too, especially if it's the soft and squishy kind!
Thanks for your review I bought everything off the glorious site..😂😂😂
4:30 what game is this??
Destiny 2
You just forgot the german inventor of these grips ~ SensoryBoost. Their grips are smooth and flat that doesn't feel weird like structured ones. if you ask me they feel best.
What game is that?
Destiny 2 and one finger death punch
My issue with grip tape and built in 'grip texture' on mice, is that it only works with dry hands. If you have sweaty hands, it actually makes the mouse more slippery. If you have sweaty hands you are better off buying rolls of athletic grip tape (the type used on baseball bats, hockey sticks, etc.), and cutting it to size. The best grip tape I've ever used has been homemade, while the Pulsar and Razer stuff actually made me play worse while costing more
you havent tried the hotline games grip v2.0 plus. it actually absorbs sweat while having a rubber finish. then the sweat can dissipate over time where you're not in contact with the mouse
Grip Tape is the Mouses foreskin being added back.
Like for the usb-drive trick at least!
I had more tape. Why not use it right!?
I bought grip tape from aliexpress and cut it to the right size for like 2 bucks... Same material than the factory cut for way less...
Nice seeing some Destiny 2 gameplay lately if you want to do some raid hit me up.
A nice affordable 77g wireless mouse with girp tape included would be the Dareu A900. I use it and it's great. The Type C flexible cable is also nice but since it doesn't have lights you'd barely need to charge it anyway.
One year on and this vid is still gri......... 😏
Братле :) Mate these are great I know but the problem I have is you telling people having grip tape one left and right mouse button helps you lift the mouse without gripping the sides. Unless you are spider man it ain't happening :) Otherwise everything is great I understand sponsor shit ;) Great videos keep going
with sweaty hand, I found
Tiger > Corepad soft > BTL 3rd > BTL 2nd > Razer >>>>> hotline >>>>>>>>>> Glorious for me.
what game was he playing?
Destiny 2
Best grips are actually from Corepad or BTL
You didn't mention Hotline Games DIY one, cut it yourself to match your mouse. Got it on my Xtrfy MZ1, great grip.
Much better than the Razer universal, it looks so ugly.
0:13 flexed that tongue For The Ladies
razer and glorious grips are trash, i want to find something like the superlight grip and its hard...
Deity?! You rip MTB bro?!
