High Vs Low Happ Trackball
(1/3) > >>
Franco:
I think I am going to go for a 3" Happ trackball for my next CP . They have them availiable in a high and low profile versions. I have read that the lower profile version is better for Golden Tee while the higher one is better for other games. I am not too bothered about Golden Tee so I am thinking that I will go with the high ball, especially as I will be using a lexan overlay. I just thought I would get your other guys opinions before ordering one.

I am thinking of getting one with a clear trackball and backlighting it with a/some RGB LEDs. Do you think a clear would be OK or would it be too transparent and maybe be too bright?

I know these questions are mainly down to personal preference but I thought I would ask to help me decide.

Thanks

With a Lexan overlay, you want the high lip trackball, not the high ball trackball.

Count me as a big fan of the high ball trackball.

I thought about the clear ball also, but I ended up ordering mine with the blue translucent one. If you do order the clear one, I'd really be interested in your results with the LEDs -- it might make me order a replacement ball for mine.

I agree with Chris....

If you are adding 1/8 th perspex/lexan then the high lip is v nice :)

Not too fond of the High Ball

Thanks for the input guys. I assume by the high lip one you mean this Golden Tee one?
