As you'll learn, you need to place the mouse precisely at the right location, the mouse will flash with its LEDs in white a couple of times and starts charging. The idea is fine, but there is one thing you will need to keep in mind, for anything to charge, your PC must be powered on at all times as in Sleep or power down mode, your USB ports do not deliver any power. Considering you use your mouse when powered on, that could end up being a bit of a paradox. This is something you need to keep in mind.

For those that wonder, yes .. Qi is a universal inductive charging standard, so smartphones like Galaxy S6, S7, S8 will charge perfectly fine on the mouse mat as well. Admittedly, it is quite handy having your phone charged while working on the PC.

Corsair also includes a kit for those that have a smartphone that does not come with wireless charging, that functions as Qi wireless charger and comes with a Micro-USB connector, as well as a Type-C and Lightening adaptor for you to be able to plug it in.

So that would look something like shown above. Granted, that looks a bit icky, but it works and is rather handy.

So there you have it, the Dark Core RGB SE mouse and MM1000 mousepad. Admittedly, the Qi charging works well.
