Wolverine Ultimate - Are the extra buttons mappable to keyboard shortcuts?

I've been coveting the Razer Wolverine Ultimate controller for my Steam/PC gaming. The only thing stopping me have been some harsh reviews on Amazon stating that the Wolverine can only map other buttons to the additional M1-M6 buttons. In several Steam (PC) games I own, I prefer to map the extra buttons on the Steam Controller to keyboard shortcuts, rather than to buttons I can already reach. Is it true that the mapping of the additional buttons on the Wolverine Ultimate are limited to direct mapping of other buttons on the controller? Also, are there any "gotchas" for using the Wolverine Ultimate exclusively on a PC? We don't even own an Xbox gaming console. Thanks! - Dave

OK to keep Razer Basilisk Ultimate on charger?

This is likely a perennial question, but I couldn't find a match in the forums. Is it OK to leave the Razer Basilisk Ultimate on the charging stand, plugged into USB power, indefinitely? I really like the look of the mouse on the stand, and love the functionality and accuracy of the mouse. The dock/stand is currently sitting in my Fortress of Gaming, plugged into a USB power supply, with the Basilisk Ultimate mounted and glowing green (fully charged). Can I keep the mouse fully charged between MMORPG and FPS sessions, or should I let the battery wear down and not keep it permanently stored on the charging stand? - Dave

[SOLVED?] Razer Blade 15 Bluetooth gone?

Just this past week, my wife's Razer Blade 15" Base (mid-2019) laptop lost its Bluetooth controller. As described in this older thread: /razer-blade-2016-bluetooth-gone.14247/ it wasn't simply that the Bluetooth drivers wouldn't load, but Windows 10 did not believe that the laptop had any Bluetooth hardware installed at all. Given the three inconvenient options: Reinstall Windows 10 Contact Razer Support to request a hardware replacement Spend $20 on a Bluetooth 5.0 USB dongle we chose the least-worst option: 3. Now here's where things get interesting. Last night, I plugged in a Techkey (generic) USB Mini Bluetooth 5.0 EDR Dongle without loading the recommended Realtek Bluetooth device drivers ('cuz who reads instructions anyway?). Windows recognized the new Bluetooth Dongle and loaded the existing Intel drivers. Bluetooth was now recognized by Windows, but the Windows Device Manager showed a yellow triangle with exclamation point stating that the drivers did not load correct

Razer Basilisk Ultimate charging dock sold separately?

I purchased a second Razer Basilisk Ultimate over the holidays and have been using the supplied micro-USB cable to charge it. My first mouse was purchased with the charging dock and I'm starting to miss it for my second "work" mouse. Is the charging dock available separately? Amazon has some cheap knock-offs, but I don't trust third party chargers for my Razer equipment. Thanks! – Dave

Streaming VUDU/Netflix/Prime Video/Play Movies in 4K?

Has anyone successfully convinced any of the major streaming services to provide 4K/UHD video to a RB15A with 4K OLED display? According to: https://vudu.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/407/~/how-do-i-watch-my-vudu-4k-uhd-movies-on-my-windows-10-device I believe our beloved 4K laptops meet or exceed the requirements. I even installed the silly $0.99 HEVC plugin from Microsoft, but still VUDU only streams in "HDX". I've tried Netflix and Prime Video's UHD movies, but they all stream 1080p or lower. As a data point, any of the 2160p/HDR on YouTube stream in 4K just fine, so I know the display, video card, and Chrome work with 4K/HDR. It's just convincing the evil streaming services that I'm a "legal" 4K display that's been the challenge. Any hints, suggestions, or success stories are welcome and encouraged. - Dave

Access Denied trying to post?

I'm new to the Razer community and was trying to post a question to the Systems forum. Every time I clicked [Create Thread], I'd get the error: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://insider.razer.com/index.php?" on this server. Is this due to the newness of my account, or a compatibility problem with Chrome, or is this a problem with the server? Thanks! - Dave

Leather messenger laptop bag that'll fit an RB17?

I recently pre-ordered a Razer Blade 17: https://www.razer.com/.../Razer-Blade-17/RZ09-0423PEF3-R3U1 and I'm looking for recommendations on a leather messenger laptop bag that'll fit this 0.78" x 10.24" x 15.55" (19.9 mm x 260 mm x 395 mm) laptop. My favorite brand, KNOMO of London, doesn't make a messenger bag wide enough. Their Bungo is called 15.6", but that's (apparently) measured diagonally. THANKS! – Dave

Can never be too good looking or have too much DC power?

I'm looking to get a spare power adapter for my mid-2019 RB15 Advanced. It came with a 230W power supply, but it's currently out of stock: https://www.razer.com/gaming-accessories/razer-230w-power-adapter My question is, could I purchase a 250W power adapter from the RBP17 and use it on an RB15: https://www.razer.com/gaming-accessories/razer-250w-power-adapter The DC output voltage is the same. It's just that the maximum current and wattage are higher. Thanks! - Dave
