Splish Splash A Mouse Was Taking A Bath

Testing SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless’ IP54 Rating

Technically an IP54 rating is splash resistant as opposed to being waterproof, so while you won’t see the Aerox 3 Wireless actually submerged in Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN’s investigation but you will see a can of Diet Coke poured on it.  SteelSeries advertised both the wireless and wired versions could survive a spill on your desktop, but RPS did go a bit further in their testing.

You might not forget your mouse out in the rain very frequently, but if you have an Aerox 3 you don’t have to worry as it will function perfectly after it drains.  The mouse itself is a trypophobes nightmare, as the shell has many tiny holes in it; apparently that has no effect on the water resistant properties of this rodent.

The other part of the IP54 rating means that while dirt can get into the Aerox 3 Wireless. it won’t have any negative effect on the operation of the mouse.  Sounds like this mouse has the perfect beach body.
