00:00:08.120 --> 00:00:16.960
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the elite gon helion which I have been

00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:19.600
informed is not you know okay okay here

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:23.519
so on their site they actually explain that LE Jen they explain what Le means

00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:27.720
which I hopefully all of you know and if you don't then I don't know you can stop

00:00:25.720 --> 00:00:30.800
watching now I suppose no no no I don't reject any viewers I want anyone who

00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:36.360
wants to learn about the hel on Mouse to be watching this video uh so Elite means

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:38.280
you know you're like Elite and then Egon

00:00:36.360 --> 00:00:42.879
like Legion like a you know army or something so they're like yeah that's where the name came from it's like leite

00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:46.960
and Legion together and I was like oh well this mouse is called the helion so

00:00:44.559 --> 00:00:51.360
it's probably like hell and like lions like together and that's probably what

00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:56.120
it is and then I was informed that it's an RTS Mouse so what they're probably

00:00:53.600 --> 00:01:01.800
talking about is the helon unit in Starcraft so there you go I got told and

00:01:00.199 --> 00:01:06.360
there's a cool little logo on the side where you can see the mouse inside um

00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:09.640
Legion is sort of a new player in this whole peripheral game but they seem to

00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:14.320
be doing some interesting stuff so we checked out the El druin before which

00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:17.439
was which is actually Diesel's using it about half and half now with his old

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:20.840
mouse so he's seeing if he can make the switch it's hard to change mice because

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:24.520
there's so many different things that affect whether you like a new mouse or

00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:28.960
not but the fact that he's legitimately considering changing it out is uh is

00:01:26.600 --> 00:01:32.360
pretty strong uh that's a pretty strong statement so I was I was pretty

00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:35.759
impressed they're serious about building high-end products which is cool unlike

00:01:34.600 --> 00:01:41.320
sort of some of the other guys so they're using uh an aago 9500 laser

00:01:38.759 --> 00:01:46.680
mouse sensor made in Japan rron micro switches they actually have a Cherry MX

00:01:43.720 --> 00:01:53.159
Blue switch for the attack button it does have a dedicated attack button

00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:55.360
which um is in line with the RTS sort of

00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:58.560
roots of this particular great packaging look at this packaging sorry I'm not

00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:04.759
actually done with this yet four custom profile sets six fully rable hot Keys

00:02:00.759 --> 00:02:07.560
customizable 16.8 million color LED and

00:02:04.759 --> 00:02:11.640
I think pretty much 80 Megs of hard disk space system requirement what kind of

00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:17.720
driver does this thing have okay oh it looks cool I'll give it that so Mouse

00:02:14.480 --> 00:02:21.680
Okay so labels DPI adjustments so 100

00:02:17.720 --> 00:02:23.440
DPI is blue 800 DPI is green 6 wow seven

00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:27.080
different settings for dpis at least and you can change the colors depending

00:02:24.760 --> 00:02:31.840
which one you're using race switching can be done with different profiles so

00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:35.959
the default is red two Teran is blue Zerg is purple protos is yellow custom

00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:41.280
is green so that's that's kind of cool as well so yeah it's definitely um

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:46.120
definitely optimized for Diablo and other RTS games like that wouldn't it be

00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:50.200
funny if I made mistakes like that I was just kidding by the way but wouldn't

00:02:48.480 --> 00:02:54.280
that be hilarious if I actually didn't know gaming to the point where I didn't

00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:58.000
know what an RTS was and I was trying to do unboxings for products that are

00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:01.640
optimized for them I mean I didn't know that the helion's a unit in StarCraft I

00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:04.200
don't think it was unit in Starcraft 1 so

00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:11.200
bam okay it comes with this is something that I do like to see it actually comes

00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:16.159
with replacements for the slippy pads on the bottom of the mouse so oh 3M wow see

00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:22.319
it's all about the baller stuff with these guys Omron switches 3M mouse pad

00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:27.840
feet and all that kind of stuff so here we go it's an ambidextrous Mouse and

00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:31.159
here is the braided cord so it's a goldplated cord although it should be

00:03:29.239 --> 00:03:34.760
noted that the gold plating here doesn't do anything the important thing is the

00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:41.480
gold plating on the inside you got that diesel I don't know if he's got that he

00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:43.400
says no it's okay uh braided cord so

00:03:41.480 --> 00:03:46.920
it's not going to sort of catch on anything and it's not going to have

00:03:45.519 --> 00:03:51.319
problems I've actually had one of my braided cords fall apart not that long

00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:54.360
ago but this one seems like it wouldn't pop out of the side I had one that where

00:03:53.040 --> 00:04:00.239
the cord just popped right out of the braiding so that was sort of disappointing it wasn't Elite gin Mouse

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:04.599
uh by the way so on the bottom here we're selecting

00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:08.680
different profiles for the mouse with a dial that's sort of an interesting

00:04:05.959 --> 00:04:14.799
interface so there's that default Teran Zerg protos custom and yeah it works

00:04:13.480 --> 00:04:19.959
pretty much like that is there another way to do this no okay you flip the mouse over you turn the dial and then

00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:24.320
you're in the actual profile that you want to be in so you don't it's not tied

00:04:21.919 --> 00:04:30.280
to a software switch which is sort of unique aha there it is Cherry MX Blue

00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:33.639
attack button so that's a dedicated a although I've no is the fact that you

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:41.080
can probably reprogram that to something else if you want it has a pretty unique sound CU it is an MX

00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:43.160
Blue see that so it actually yeah has

00:04:41.080 --> 00:04:46.639
like some pretty serious clickiness to it you've also got a couple more

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:51.160
programmable keys so there's one here one here there's your middle click left

00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:55.440
click right click and I'm trying to figure out if these

00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:58.440
are related to Something in any way but it would actually appear not let's go

00:04:57.280 --> 00:05:01.639
ahead and plug it in and have a look at what the lighting Zones look like

00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:11.160
watching the video listenting to lus

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:14.360
sing okay well that explains what all this is so there's just lighting that

00:05:12.440 --> 00:05:19.720
shows through here at the bum of the mouse here on the logo here on the top

00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:26.440
and here and here on the side so you can change those colors to pretty much

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:28.120
whatever you see fit so I want to close

00:05:26.440 --> 00:05:31.199
by showing you guys how we actually Chang the dial on the bottom and how

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:37.800
affects the color so you can actually see slightly through the hole there what

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:40.600
goes on but here we go blue purple

00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:43.120
yellow other more different blue oh we should have had like green instead of

00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:49.840
another more different blue well that pretty much wraps it up thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Legion

00:05:46.440 --> 00:05:52.199
