TOMSIN Programmable Remap Paddles Kit for PS5 Controller BDM 010 & BDM 020, 4 Upgrade Button Attachment for Dualsense Controller

I’ve never owned paddles or a pro controller, and didn’t really want to spend a ton of money on a new controller when I already own 2 original ps5 controllers from launch. While searching for solutions I found this option at a fraction of the price of a pro controller. Considering I am decently savvy with electronics I thought I’d give it a shot. It’s definitely not a mod for everyone but if you’re up for it and have read the instructions (there’s a video too) I think you should be ok to install these yourself. Soldering is optional but you won’t need it if you don’t want to map l3/r3. When I first started playing Elden Ring on ps5 I noticed controls were a little awkward if I wanted to turn the camera view while I jump, run or roll. For that reason, I bought this set. I’m glad I went with the 4 paddles as I rarely ever need to take my thumbs off the thumb sticks now. I rarely felt bothered enough by this to think much of it before buying this but now that I own one it’s a complete game changer. I mapped 3 buttons to x, o, triangle, and the last I mapped to mount my horse (multiple buttons). You can map multiple buttons to one paddle which that’s probably rarely used by some if they’re even aware, but I found super convenient for specific actions. The other day my controller died after a long gameplay session, so I tried using my non-paddle controller and it felt awkward to go back to, to the point I quit my gaming session early. I don’t like using the controller while charging, otherwise easy fix. This was my deciding factor for writing my review. I haven’t noticed any affect to battery life, and doubt there is any. A con to note that bummed me out is the back paddles are installed in a way that it no longer fits on the original ps5 charging station. My solution to this was a magnetic charging cable, which is not as nice as the dock I’ve become accustomed to. It might still work with aftermarket docks though. In short, I don’t have experience with other paddles or pro controllers but these paddles have been a huge improvement over stock so far. I’ve played Elden ring for about 100 hours, and about a 30 minute session of overcooked, so far it’s held up great.

This is an edit from my original 5 star review I loved them at first because it’s got all the bells and whistles. A nice clicky feel, 4 paddles, and turbo functionality. Less than a year of usage and one of the paddles cracked and would no longer click. I ordered a replacement paddle for $15 and after 1 months it’s ALREADY CRACKED. I’ve taken a closer look and you can clearly see that the design is just atrocious! They put notches in the paddles so that way it has room for the board mounting screws. These notches are so large that it leaves just a sliver of material in a spot that’s constantly under load from pressing the paddle. I’m almost offended, not just for poor design, but also for the lack of effort to address this issue. Tomsin, you’ve got two simple fixes… 1. Redesign the housing so the paddles do notch require a notch. 2. Make the paddles out of metal. This is kid stuff… we are not free beta testers for your lazily designed product!!!

I just recently got a ps5 and I really enjoy playing FPS games which require me to have the back paddles. I have never done a controller mod before. I previously was using a strike pack for my ps4 so I was nervous ordering this. I must say that it was super easy and they work great! The instructions were very straight forward and there are videos to help. I highly recommend this product if you are looking to add back paddles on your ps5

Ordered the wrong one at first but the seller reached out and sent the correct one instead making my life easier which is why I’m leaving this review. It was our fault and the new one works flawlessly. My son is so happy now and said “by far the best one I’ve had” and that makes me happy.

Works great as advertised, instruction videos for installation are spot on. Have had issues intermittently with programming but I believe that's because I have stick drift, if programming doesn't work may have to hold the program button and the desired buttons when turning off programming mode, otherwise I believe the stick drift will always overwrite the programmed button. Paddle snapped after a few months of medium use, probably happened during an intense Elden Ring boss so maybe to be expected with the thinness of the paddles. Would give lower rating there if not for the super responsive (within the day) customer service and pretty quick (few day) shipping of a complete new set of not only the broken paddle but all paddles, the paddle case and screws to go with it (basically the entire product without the electrical parts). Can't give it a 5 because a paddle snapped during normal use, but very happy with the purchase overall.

I like how easy it was to install. If you you built a controller before it should only take you about 20-25 mins. My dislikes about it are that the paddles feel flimsy and that they do not rest firmly on the actuator. There is a hair of space between them. Also the paddle nee to be made with a stronger material. Whatever that may be, preferably a metal. Also the paddles are not set in the most comfortable position. They need to have more of a drop down like the Xbox controller or playstation

Over all this product was amazing the build quality was great and since I am not the most tech smart I was scared that I was not going to be able to set it up but everything went perfect it was super easy and when I needed help they were very wuick to respond and help great product would 100% recommend

Taking apart a controller is rather easy as is reassembly or so people might think. Someone in a review mentioned the screws supplied are soft, in fact the issue there is the screwdriver is not the correct fit and i did strip the bead of one screw. I have several screwdriver sets and found the correct one which made it much easier to assemble/disassemble. Instruction are just okay. Photos are tiny and difficult to see. The plastic spludger tool supplied broke easily and i had to use my own spludger. Someone wrote that this was an easy kit to install and easily the best BUT that hack also mentioned they have a lot of experience doing mods to controllers. This is not a kit for someone with no or very limited experience, you are best finding someone to do it for you. Yet seller makes it seem simple. No so We had to come up with our own solutions. Provide our own tools, write down our own instructions and come up with a new screw. Another mark against this unit is the sellers link to the video only sends you to the Youtube channel not the correct video . The video itself has no instructions and is of poor quality. We found another video not related to the seller which was far more helpful. Be prudent and be sure you have the correct model of controller and the seller does note correct models . Thats worth something in of itself.

The product is absolutely amazing! I was impressed by how easy it was to install, and the instructional video was very helpful. However, I do wish there were more color options available. It would also be great if they offered an additional back case with a grip that could be purchased.

Most reviews that are below 4 stars are from those that didn't have the correct controller model etc... or were unable to install the mod correctly. The plastic back plate is a soft plastic which feels really nice in the hand. Was very impressed with how it matched up with the controller. Feels very premium. The mod pack and buttons are quite sturdy and very responsive with a satisfying click. The placement is decent, I have long fingers and prefer the paddles to be slightly lower but still feels very natural to press. I have done alot of personal controller customization with extremerate products etc... and this is probably the best I have used so far. Highly recommend!

Modded my new BDM020, bricked the controller, L2 is now permanently active/stuck. Tried on 2nd brand new controller, same thing. Both are now paper weight. Better get ExtremeRate brand.
