The Space Dust Glow-in-the-Dark Design on the PDP REMATCH GLOW Controller

The Space Dust design on the PDP REMATCH GLOW is a space-dust pattern that glows in the dark, and it is the detail that makes this pad stand out on a shelf of plain black controllers. The pattern is a finish, so it sits on a standard wired layout with a 2.4m cable and two programmable back buttons. Here is what the design does, how to look after it, and where it earns its place at R1,099 including VAT.

Quick Answer

The Space Dust design glows in the dark after it has taken in light, and it keeps a standard wired layout with two rear paddles. Charge it under a lamp, wipe it with a dry cloth, and expect the glow to fade over the night. It costs R1,099 incl VAT.

🌌 What the pattern is, and what it is not

The space-dust pattern is a surface design with a glow element. It is not a light, so it does not replace a lamp, and it does not change how the controls work. The pattern shows best in a dim room, and it looks like a finish in daylight. A charge of 3 minutes under a lamp is the starting point for showing the pattern in a dim room.

Think of the design as the first feature you notice, with the 2 back buttons and the 2.4 metre cable coming after. It is the first thing a visitor notices, and it is the reason you find the pad quickly in the dark.

🧽 Looking after the finish

Wipe the pad with a soft, dry cloth after a session, especially around the grips where hands sit for hours. Avoid harsh solvents and abrasive cleaners, since they can dull a finish of any kind. A quick wipe every 7 days keeps the surface clean without any special product.

Keep the pad out of hot cars and direct heat, which is general care advice for any finish. Store it in a cupboard or on a shelf away from the window, so the surface stays in good condition.

🌃 Where the design earns its place

The design is most useful in a dim room you walk through often. In a Durban flat where the lounge lights go off before the bedroom passage, the pattern lets you spot the pad on the way to bed. It is a small thing that can save a few steps in a passage 3 metres long, and that is the reason some buyers choose the glow version over the plain one.

In a bright room with daylight all day, the design is simply a pleasant finish. Browse wired controllers and gaming accessories to see how the design sits beside other pads. Choose it for the look if the room suits it, and pick a plain finish if the glow will never be seen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the pattern wear off over time?

Keep the pad clean and out of heat, and check the finish now and then. Wiping with a soft dry cloth is the simplest care step.

How long does the glow last at night?

It fades through the evening, so the lamp you charge under changes how long the glow lasts. Charge it under a lamp before the session, and run a short test in your own room.

Does the glow change how the pad plays?

No. The pattern is a surface design, not hardware, so the buttons and sticks respond exactly as they do on any other version.
