that sounds terrible well hold on maybe it's not terrible maybe it's just a different use case because unlike logitech solution the Mamba hyper flux is extremely light so what it has in it is a capacitor that charges up over a span of about 30 seconds because I mean it's got to use all the rest of the power so for all the you know chroma RGB lighting and everything on it and then that gives you about five to ten seconds of you know liftoff time we're like oh I accidentally went off my mouse pad but I wanted to make sure that it's working right away and there it is completely wireless mouse and all yours for the value price of just - $49.99 us so anyway thanks for checking out our video from here in the Razer suite at CES 2018 and a huge shout out to FreshBooks for allowing us to be here fresh books is the cloud-based accounting solution for freelancers and small business owners it allows you to create and send professional-looking invoices in seconds it lets you set up online payments in just a few clicks to get paid up to four days faster they've got their great mobile apps for iOS and Android so you can take the full functionality of the platform with you and this is cool you can actually see when your client has seen your invoice to put an end to the guessing game so for your free trial head over to FreshBooks comm forward slash -
