How do I check battery level in G Hub for the G502?

Problem

You want to monitor the current battery percentage of your wireless G502 mouse using Logitech G Hub, so you can avoid sudden disconnections or interruptions during use.


Solution

Logitech G Hub displays the real-time battery level of supported wireless G-series mice, including the G502 models. It updates automatically and can show warnings when the battery is low.


Step-by-Step Guide

1. Open Logitech G Hub


2. View the Battery Indicator

  • At the top of the G502 interface, you’ll see a battery icon or percentage:
    • Example: Battery: 87%
    • May also show Charging… when plugged in
  • You can also find this under:
    • Device Settings (gear icon ⚙️)
    • Power tab (if available)

G Hub updates battery info every few seconds.


3. Set Low Battery Alerts (Optional)

In G Hub Settings:

  • Go to the gear icon > General Settings
  • Enable low battery notifications
  • This will pop up a Windows notification when the mouse drops below a set threshold (e.g., 10%)

4. Alternative: On-Mouse Indicators (G502 X Plus only)

  • The G502 X Plus may blink or pulse the RGB lighting when low on battery
  • You can configure this under:
    • LIGHTSYNC > Effects > Smart Illumination

5. Without G Hub (On Other Devices)

  • You cannot view exact battery percentage without G Hub
  • But:
    • The mouse may reduce lighting to conserve power when low
    • Some models blink LEDs or pause effects at ~10–15% battery

Notes

  • Always fully charge before long gaming sessions
  • Logitech G Hub does not show estimated time remaining, only battery percentage
  • If battery percentage is not updating:
    • Reconnect the mouse or receiver
    • Restart G Hub
