What could be better than a Mouse that reflects your personality and the way you think and act? Customized mice have always been in vogue, but the world of modding takes mice a step ahead from the mice offered in the markets. Modders usually mod existing mice and create something fantastic or they use certain other portable gadgets and mod a mouse into it.
These creative and technological advanced mice are a source of inspiration not just for budding modders, but also those who are interested in technology but were always afraid to try their hand at modding. Here are some of the coolest mice mods that we found.
