I am trying to find a replacement ball for an Imperial 3 inch track ball. The only place I have seen that sells replacement balls is Happ. I sent them a quick email asking if there would be any compatibility problems using one of their replacement balls in an Imperial. Their response was a pretty blunt..."No, it won't work" Now, my question is this....is there really that much of a difference in manufactures that a ball from another company won't work or is this Happ just saying "F you....buy one of our complete trackball units"? I mean....it's a three inch ball for God sakes....how much different can they really be? |

Head over to Groovy Game Gear they have the replacements as well as the upgrade kit for the ICE-T Trackball. Here is a link. TTFN :cheers: Kaytrim |

I am not really interested in the Ice balls....they are cool and all, but I really want just a solid blue ball to match my control color scheme. Right now I have a control panel with blue graphics, joysticks with blue batons, and blue pushbuttons, matching blue t-molding and a big ole shiny white trackball. Kinda sticks out! |

People have even used acrylic juggling balls... Happs blows! |

You can dye those a different colour using clothing dye.... It works really well. Just take the white ball and drop it in a pan with blue Dylon Dye and boil it for a few hours. The colour will change to quite a good permanent blue. Best Regards, Julian (Fozzy The Bear) |
