You did mention that in order to clean out pet hair, you need to take out the front cover. Can you do a video on that? It is probably simple but it’ll be helpful to show the amount of pet hair accumulated and how to clean it out.

Hi, so if I use this long tube, I can just apply the oil with the belt in place without loosening it? Thanks for the video. It is very helpful

I love you so much stranger!!!!! My mom and I want to get a walking treadmill. She works in a car all day and just wants something she can walk with for 30 minutes. I work from my desk all day. I almost pulled the trigger on walkingpad for almost $800. A million thank yous!!!

thanks so much for this video, im convinced

This info wasn't even in my manual, and I didn't have high hopes when I found your video. But I did what you said and wow--- THIS WORKED PERFECTLY!!! It's perfectly centered now! Thank you.

Ploppy Gimble style bearings full axis with a big ball would be a cool

I want to try a trackball for gaming but i need a wireless mouse.. do you have any recommendations?

Excellent work thank you. 40+ miles a week for 12 weeks on a Urevo spacewalk2 and it's broken. $170 down, but I learned I love it. I'll be getting the egofit thanks to you.

I think the debate of slimblade vs expert mouse (imo0 comes down largely to personal prerference. I've used both and they are equally great trackballs, however I( personally) prefer the expert mouse due to the feedback from the scroll ring, But as I said, new users should try BOTH and see which works best for them and their budget.

ploopy is that good? I thought ppl just like it cause it's DIY, I'm using my damn logiteck like a dumbass

I'd love a Slimblade pro with isolated button tops and rolling bearings (round like the gameball, rather than linear like the ploopy). I like to rest my palm and would like a bit better humped palm area on it too.

I got the Ergofit M2 in the mail today, plugged it in and the red light turned on by the plug. Batteries (AAA) are in the remote. But it doesn't turn on.. am I not understanding something super obvious? Do you have to do anything in particular to get it to start? I tried the re-pairing with the remote, and replaced the batteries but nada..

Jist got my gameball today and you wete right about the moving the cursor while clicking. I guess the adept is a better choice.

Do I use the whole small vile provided initially when first get it? I wasn't sure how much of vile to use. I don't think I applied enough, I still have lubricant left in the small vile.

What is the lube made of?

Tyler, can you provide the link for the applicator you used? This is the absolute best tutorial on how to do this, thank you, thank you thank you!

Thanks for the video. I have used Logitch Marble Mouse for like 20 years.. I am used to scrolling by holding on to the scrollbar and spin the ball or on web apps use middle mouse click to activate scroll pan. I tried a logitech trackball that had a scroll wheel but it felt so unnatural to not use the ball to scroll when you have it there all available. :) Probably is going to try the addept after your review video and if necessary find a way to 3d-print a palm rest.

It worked!!? Thanks so much!

"bigger balls are better" - size matters :)

I think the gameball is better for movement based fps games or any fps. The scroll whell function of the adept is not practical in apex where you air strafe alot. Having a dedicated scoll is a must in my opinion in fps gaming. As of now if you are a dedicated gamer aiming for the higher ranks , gameball is much better.

Does the Ergofit M2 come with the remote to control the speed? I see on the website you can buy a remote.. which makes me wonder is it a separate thing.

I get it centered then when walk on it it still drifts to the right.

Would you be able to do a video on how easy or difficult it is to clean the bearings of the the Adept? I have the slimblade pro which is super easy to clean, I haven't seen any info on cleaning the Adept. Thanks.

I've tried working on mine in this way but mine continues to drift every time I walk on it

Thanks for all the mouse reviews Tyler. I just made an additional order for the Ploopy Classic and the Adept after the 1st Ploopy Mini which hasn't even arrived. At this point, any trackball that feels best on my wrist is appreciated. Sustaining less stress isn't even a question anymore.

audio balance when gaming could use some work

Kensington's Pro Fit Ergo Vertical Trackball is legitimately the most ergonomic trackball ever; you literally can just rest your hand vertically near it and everything is well within your reach with almost no wrist or hand movement. Also if you aren't using thumb AND index finger on thumb trackballs in a loose "OK" position you're doing it wrong.

Thank you for explaining your thoughts and experience, it's very insightful.

Amazing video quality, love it!

Thank you so much for this video!!!! ❤🎉

I'm thinking about trying the Ploopy Mini, the smaller version of the Classic. Bought a ProtoArc Trackpad but my wrist still hurts, so the Adapt might not work for me.

Thank you so much the video. Especially for the keyboard stands. I have two macro boards (left and right, Ortholinear layout, Gateron yellow and boba gum switches) and since I saw your video I finally will mod them with your stands idea. 🎉

Best video and explanation, thank you

I got the king smith walkingpad C2 and that shit only lasted 4 days and it’s dead . Doesn’t even turn on anymore . An absolute piece of junk . You are definitely paying for the aesthetic not reliability

so true with the elecom. i got one. great design and all...not useable. always jumps when moving because of the grip. watched a video on how to replace the bearings, but not sure if a do it. it's gathering dust

I'm on the vertical mouse stage on healing my RSI healing journey and now I'm looking for a trackball mouse so the intro is really hitting home for me.

I do really like your video. I am so sorry that you have never learned how to use a mouse the correct way. I have used mouse all from the first Macintosh mouse, pc ball mouse and up until today and I have luckily never gotten even tried in my hand, even after 12-14 hours. The trick is to configure the mouse so you almost use it as a large trackball. Your wrist and arm is relaxing on the table and only your two fingers are moving the mouse. If you need more space than half a playing card, are you using it wrong. :-)

by definition, something that is ambidextrous can't be ergonomic.

Great review/comparison - thank you.

I appreciate all of your vids

I have thumb pains too, tried that mx ergo - I could see how amazing it'd be if I only had wrist issues

Any suggestions would be appreciated. My Slimblade Pro just started squeaking most notably when using the scrolling feature and I wiped it down with 99% alcohol thinking that it was dirty. It became even more sticky and squeaky.

Hey DonnaI tried to reply to your statement but it didn’t work I have the long straw lubricant with the bottle at home. The tech that came to my house used it. I just wasn’t sure how much to use and how to measure it. This video is the best informative one. I believe you can get it n amazon

Best video I,couldn’t find video that uses the lubricant with the long straw. Thankyou. Now I know how to use it. Tech told me to use it every three months because I use my machine every night for an hr Thankyou again

slim pro ball is 55mm diameter the Elecom huge is 52mm diameter

the largest ball is kensington's elecom is smaller and a lot light, I got elecom huge and kensington expert, the large size of the ball does not help a lot with the sticktion the new bearings help something but is barely noticeble and from my 2 elecom huge I got issues with both scroll wheels. I have just tried the ceramic bearings, I still have to try the steal ones but I'm looking for a fix to the scroll wheel encoder. Maybe I'm just going to buy another of the newer model. for gaming, it depends on what are you gaming, because FPS doesn't have the same requirements as colony simulator that allows you to pause or change the speed of the simulation.

Do any of you have an alternative for the Slimblade trackball? I read a lighter one will be more ergonomic and I'm not optimizing for performance but ergonomics. It's main use is productivity.

Great info - really appreciate you insight. A question on usage - what are your thoughts on using without a desk? Would like to have something for walking while watching TV - just a casual stroll for some exercise during the day.

Lmao, try that big square mess in a shooter with your 'hover hand' theory, then use the gameball. Once you've done that tell me which one is clearly better, and why its the gameball.

Thanks so much, this tutorial fixed me right up!
