Logitech G305 — Professional Esports Gaming Mouse Review and Stats
About the Logitech G305
The Logitech G305 brought Lightspeed wireless technology to a $59 price point in 2018, democratizing low-latency wireless for budget-conscious competitive players. Running on a single AA battery at 99 grams — lighter with a lithium AAA and adapter mod — the G305 proved that wireless gaming didn't have to be expensive. The HERO sensor delivered accurate tracking while consuming minimal power, enabling months of battery life on a single cell. A massive modding community emerged around the G305, with players 3D-printing lightweight shells and swapping to lithium batteries to bring the weight under 80 grams. The G305 may be the single most modded gaming mouse in history, a testament to how good its internal platform was for the price.
