Razer Viper Ultimate side buttons question (sleep mode related)

Hi guys, I disabled the right side buttons from the software but since I accidently still pressed them during gameplay I actually put two little pieces of tape there so the buttons can't move(underneath the buttons). They are now fully pressed and stuck in place (constantly pressed).



However I noticed mouse battery drains over night, also when it's supposed to be on wireless power saving mode(sleep mode) still drains battery. Like 1% per hour or something.

I have LED off, turned low power mode on even at 100% charge and use 500hz polling rate, this should be the ultimate battery saving combo.



Can the fully pressed side buttons(no matter they're disabled from software) somehow prevent the mouse to enter sleep mode (wireless power saving) so this is causing the constant battery drain?



Thank you.

Regards.

I think yes - it should cause battery drain, because physically the button is pressed (if pressed, there is current flow through the switch).
You were right. This was the problem. Now the only problem is I keep clicking them accidentally lol
