Left-hand X3 LHD CrazyLight Mini or right-hand X3 CrazyLight Medium: sizes differ too

Two mice from the same family can still be very different objects. The Pulsar X3 LHD CrazyLight Mini is built for the left hand and measures 119.6 x 67.1 x 41mm. The Pulsar X3 CrazyLight Medium is built for the right hand and is bigger on every axis. The first decision is which hand you use. The second is how much shell your palm needs, and the numbers below show how far apart the two sit.

Quick Answer

Handedness decides it: the X3 LHD CrazyLight Mini is left-handed and the X3 CrazyLight Medium is right-handed, so a left-hander has only one choice here and a right-hander only the other. Size then separates them further, with the Mini at 119.6 x 67.1 x 41mm and 43g, and the Medium at 124.7 x 69.5 x 43.1mm and 46g. Both share the same sensor, switches and 8K dongle.

🖐 The two shells in numbers

Start with what each mouse is, taken from its listed specification.

• X3 LHD CrazyLight Mini: left-handed, with asymmetrical sides and top but a symmetrical front, listed for palm and claw, 119.6 x 67.1 x 41mm, 43g with the dot feet fitted.
• X3 CrazyLight Medium: right-handed ergonomic, listed for palm, 124.7 x 69.5 x 43.1mm, 46g on the dot feet (give or take 2g) and 48g on regular skates.

Weights are measured without the cable. The Medium is 5.1mm longer, 2.4mm wider, 2.1mm taller and 3g heavier than the Mini. None of those gaps is huge alone, but together they change how much of the hand the shell fills.

🪟 What the size gap feels like

The Mini is a fairly broad shell for a Mini: at 67.1mm wide it is close to the Medium's 69.5mm, which is why it suits a palm that wants width but not a very long body. The Medium goes further, adding length and height so a large palm rests fully on the rear slope.

Which grips each one supports

The LHD Mini is listed for palm and claw, so a left-handed player who uses either hold has a match. The X3 CrazyLight Medium is listed for palm only. The tall, long body is built to fill a flat hand, and a claw hand will find the same shell too large. That is the one place where the choice may involve more than handedness: a right-handed claw player may be happier on a different Pulsar shape than the X3 Medium, even though the electronics are identical.

🧮 Why the gap matters less than you think

A 3g weight difference sounds trivial, and between two mice of the same family it nearly is. What a hand notices first is width and height under the palm. The Mini's 41mm profile sits lower than the Medium's 43.1mm, so a palm that likes to rest deeper into the shell can find the Mini a little cramped, while a palm that hovers can find the Medium tall. Neither is better in the abstract. They answer different hands, and since the sensor and switches are shared, nothing about performance is lost by choosing for comfort.

⚙️ What the two share

The electronics are common to both mice, so there is no performance reason to prefer one over the other. Each carries:

• The XS-1 sensor, reading to 32,000 DPI and 750 IPS.
• Optical switches built for 100 million clicks.
• Wireless via a 2.4GHz receiver, plus a USB-C cable.
• Sixteen loose 6.6mm dot feet in every box.
• The maker's Windows app for buttons, macros and sensor settings.

Both reach 8000Hz only when the PC offers a Core i5 or Ryzen 5 chip and USB 3.0, so the choice of shell does not change what your computer must offer.

🏠 One PC, two hands

Households with one gaming PC on a shared home-office desk sometimes need to fit a left-hander and a right-hander at once. The two mice come from the same family, with identical sensor, switches and software, so each player gets the shape for their own hand while the settings language stays familiar. Nothing needs to be swapped between hands, and each person keeps their own mouse on the desk. The only extra step is a second USB port for the second dongle.

📏 Measuring before you order

A ruler and two minutes are enough to avoid ordering the wrong size, and the figures you need are already in the lists above.

Because you order online and cannot hold either mouse first, a ruler is the safest way to check fit.

1. Lay your hand flat in your normal grip and measure across the widest part of the palm.
2. Compare with 67.1mm for the LHD Mini and 69.5mm for the Medium.
3. If you are left-handed and have a large palm, remember the Medium is right-handed and not an option. The Mini is 2.4mm narrower, so measure first.
4. If you are right-handed with a claw grip, measure the length from the wrist to the end of the middle finger against 124.7mm before you commit to the Medium.

🛒 Where to find them

Evetech sells both mice in South Africa. Start on the gaming mice shelf, and use the wireless mouse range to set them beside other shells. Prices appear on each product page. The Pulsar family at Evetech puts the left-hand and right-hand shells in one place so the sizes can be checked.

Frequently Asked Questions
