Open a Pulsar mouse box and you expect the mouse, the receiver and a cable. On most of the range there is one more item that gets overlooked: a sheet of 16 dot skates, each a 6.6mm disc of UHMW-PE. They are there so you can decide which feet your mouse runs on, and this guide explains the choice, which models carry the sheet and how to handle a swap on a desk you share.
Quick Answer
The Pulsar X2 CrazyLight, Pulsar Xlite CrazyLight, Pulsar X3 CrazyLight, Pulsar X2H CrazyLight and Pulsar X3 LHD CrazyLight, plus the Susanto-X and JV-X models from the Pulsar Pro Series, include a sheet of 16 UHMW-PE dot skates of 6.6mm in the box. Swapping is optional. The mouse works with the feet it has, and the sheet lets you try dots instead.
📦 Which boxes carry the sheet
The product pages for five CrazyLight families state that a set of dot skates comes in the box, and the two Pro Series pages for Susanto-X and JV-X list "UHMW-PE dot skates (16 pcs)" among the contents. That covers sixteen product pages in total, from the 35g Pulsar X2 CrazyLight Mini to the 56g JV-X.
The Link-receiver trio is different. Pulsar Pro Series CARPE-X, Pulsar Pro Series BUZZ-X and Pulsar ZywOo The Chosen Gen.2 list a mouse, a receiver and a USB-C cable (the Chosen adds a weight bar, screwdriver and screws), with no dot skates. If you want the sheet, pick from the first group.
🔍 Why there are two sets of feet
UHMW-PE stands for ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, a slippery, hard-wearing plastic that suits mouse feet. These ship with a second option, so the choice of feet is yours to make.
That is a feel preference, not a performance claim, and no figure is published for it. Treat the sheet as a way to try a different feel without a separate purchase. This post is about the sheet already in the box; where you would find a replacement is another topic.
⚖️ What changes on the scale
Pulsar's weights on these pages are measured on dots, cable excluded. Run the regular skates and the mouse is listed at roughly 2g more, so the Pulsar X2 CrazyLight Medium moves from about 39g to about 41g. The size of that shift will not reorder the range, but if you are counting grams between two shells, know which feet you are weighing.
🛠️ Swapping on a shared desk
A shared or res room desk is not a workshop, so keep the job tidy.
- Clear the surface and put a cloth or sheet of paper down so small discs do not roll away.
- Work on one foot position at a time and note where each original sits.
- Keep the originals in the box in case you want to go back. Do not throw them away after the first session.
- Press new feet down evenly and let them settle before you play.
- Check that nothing overhangs the edge of the shell.
You do not have to fit the dots at all. The mouse runs with the feet it has, and the sheet remains an option for later.
🧪 Trying both without fuss
Give each set of feet a fair run. Play a few sessions on one, write down what you notice about starting a slow move and stopping a fast one, then swap and repeat. Changing feet mid-session makes the comparison muddy, and a single evening is rarely enough to judge. Keep the sheet in its pouch or box in the meantime so the discs stay flat and clean.
If you end up preferring the original feet, nothing is lost. The sheet remains a spare for later, and the mouse behaves as it did before.
🇿🇦 Buying notes
Evetech sells online, so you cannot lift a boxed mouse to count the skates, but the product page for each model confirms what the box holds. Browse gaming mice or the wireless mice listing and open the model you are considering. The price sits on the product page. Replacement skates are a good reason to browse the Pulsar listing and check each model's box contents.
