| trackball dilemma...MODIFIED: need review of Electric ICE-T trackball |
| << < (2/2) |
| DashRendar:
I have a Mameroom control panel; I'll need to measure the thickness of it and the plexi when I get home. Regarding buttons for the trackball- do you use those basically for Windows (ie, double mouse clicks etc)? |
| Epyx:
The 3" RGB upgrade kits fits very nicely in the Betson Imperial/Xgaming trackball...plus with the X Gaming you get 4 mouse buttons and USB support. Ive mentioned it a few times before but the one exception to Xgaming parts is their trackball...its mod friendly...4 screws->lift top->remove old ball and put the GGG upgrade..screw closed, It's USB so no fussing and its cheap in price but feels sturdy...again its a clone of the Betson Imperial which I have always been a fan of. |

I would prefer to order from Randy, but since he's out of stock, had to get the X-Arcade trackball, which I'll modify with his Electric Ice kit. Hopefully I'm not sacrificing too much in the way of quality... |
