Quick answer

Choose the Lethal Cable with the connector that matches your mouse port: Micro USB for older Zowie and Endgame Gear XM1 series, USB-A for newer mice that use a standard USB-A input. The cable itself is identical in flexibility and weight.

Why the connector matters more than the cable

Lethal Cables are designed to feel nearly weightless during gameplay, but the connector type determines compatibility. If you plug a Micro USB cable into a mouse that expects USB-A, it simply won't fit — and vice versa. The cable's thin paracord-like construction and 3D printed stress reliefs are the same across versions, so your choice comes down to your mouse's port.

Zowie C Series and Endgame Gear XM1: Micro USB territory

Many popular competitive mice still use Micro USB. The Zowie C Series and Endgame Gear XM1, XM1r, and XM1 RGB all require a Micro USB connector. If you own one of these, the Lethal Cable for Zowie C Series or Endgame Gear XM1 is the direct replacement. Both are 1.7m long and share the same lightweight, flexible build.

When you need a USB-A cable

Some newer gaming mice have moved to a standard USB-A input — often on the mouse end. If your mouse uses a USB-A port, the Lethal Cable Micro USB to USB-A is the right pick. It's the same 1.7m cable but with a USB-A connector on the mouse side. This option is also handy if you need a spare or replacement for a non-gaming peripheral that uses USB-A.

Trade-offs at a glance

  • Micro USB for Zowie C Series: Direct replacement for Zowie C Series mice. Same 1.7m length, same lightweight paracord-style feel. Available in multiple colors.
  • Micro USB for Endgame Gear XM1: Fits XM1r, XM1 RGB, and XM1. Identical cable specs to the Zowie version but with a connector shape that matches the XM1's recessed port.
  • Micro USB to USB-A: Use this if your mouse or device has a USB-A input. Comes with a rubber adapter for a snug fit. Same cable performance as the Micro USB versions. Check your mouse port before buying — Micro USB and USB-A are not interchangeable.
