Flexiglow xRaider

     Today we have even more goodies from the strange and unusual department. Well, maybe not so unusual these days... Today we have the Flexiglow xRaider Illuminated Gaming Mouse Pad here to show off. To some this may be noting more than a novelty item, to the extreme PC Modder, this is the ultimate in mouse pads.

     We've taken a looks at several illuminated mouse pads over the last few months, but so far the xRaider seems to be the best. Why? It's all about the design. The xRaider has no annoying buttons to turn the lights off and on, there is only a inline dimmer switch. This means the button isn't in the way on top of the mouse pad, nor do you have to turn the pad over to find a button. Not to mention you can actually dim the LEDs inside the pad.

     When we take a look at features, there is more to this mouse pad than just pretty lights. It is also highly functional. The pad itself is quite huge, measuring in at 290mm x 223mm. This pad is also very low profile coming in at only 5mm high.

     On the backside of the mouse pad is 5 of the best rubber mouse pad feet that I've seen. The feet are extra wide and extra soft to really grip your desk. There is nothing worse than a mouse pad that slides around, but you'll find that the xRaider stays firmly in place.

     Overall, I really love the xRaider. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the best illuminated mouse pad that I've tested so far. It has a superior mousing surface with superior desk grip. The easy to locate dimmer switch also makes this pad the better choice. High marks for Flexiglow!

The Flexiglow xRaider will soon be available at CrazyPC.com!
