I got mine today and also had / have that doubt.
After some research, here's my conclusions:
- iCUE software will recognize Harpoon mouse only if its wired or 2.4G connected. If its bluetooth connected to your computer, it wont appear as a connected device, and won't apply your software profiles.
- Harpoon mouse doesn't have "hardware profile". That means the profiles you create (in which your personal lightning effects configuration are included) won't be saved onboard (on the hardware itself).
That's why when you connect the mouse over bluetooth or to a new computer (in which the iCUE software is not installed) it won't load your lightning preferences (as it won't load your software profiles).
That also means we're stuck to that standard rainbow configuration. But since brightness setting appears to be saved onboard (don't know why), we can turn RGB completely off while wired or 2.4G connected and it will remain off when over bluetooth.
That might be a workaround if you want to use the bluetooth connection (like me).
If anyone knows better, please enlighten us.
Sorry about any grammar mistakes.
