USB Host Shield compatibility with Leonardo R3 for mouse input

Customer:

Can the USB Host Arduino Shield be partially assembled with only specific components soldered on? I need 3 things soldered for additional power to handle mouse inputs and movements. Is this shield compatible with the Arduino Leonardo R3?

Soldered Support:

The USB Host shield is a generic off-brand Arduino shield, and the version we sell is the same as those available from other retailers. Arduino shields are generally compatible between Leonardo R3 and UNO boards, so this shield should work with the Leonardo R3.

However, we sell products as-is. We don’t offer services to selectively solder or remove components from breakout boards - the shield comes fully assembled as pictured.
