Pulsar and Noctua launch Feinmann F01 Noctua Edition gaming mouse with built-in fan for sweaty palms

Noctua and Pulsar Gaming Gears have launched the Feinmann F01 Noctua Edition, a gaming mouse with a 40mm Noctua NF-A4x10 fan built directly into its underside to keep your palm cool during long sessions. It is now available on Pulsar's official website and at authorised retailers for $179.95.

The mouse uses a carbon composite exoskeleton with ventilation cutouts throughout the body. This is done to both keep the weight down and to let the embedded fan push air directly upward toward your palm. The goal is to reduce hand sweat to maintain grip during extended or intense gaming, especially for professional e-sports players.

Fan speed is adjustable across multiple levels through a button and wheel combination or a web-based driver, and it can be turned off entirely when you do not need it. At 73 grams including the fan, the Feinmann F01 Noctua Edition is heavier than the standard Feinmann F01. For a mouse positioned around lightweight gaming, that is worth knowing before purchase. The Noctua colourway, predictably, is the familiar beige and brown that has become Noctua's signature across all its products.

On the hardware side, this is a meaningful upgrade over the standard Feinmann F01 rather than just a cosmetic reskin. The Noctua Edition uses Pulsar's newer XS-2 sensor with a 42,000 DPI ceiling, up from the XS-1's 32,000 DPI, and bumps tracking speed to 800 IPS from 750 IPS. The polling rate is 8,000Hz, and optical switches are rated for 100 million clicks.
