And it succeeds at that for you? Those pains are among the reasons I try to minimize pc use nowadays (back issues being the other).

As double carpal tunnel owner that has been surgically intervened twice, it helped heaps. It was so comfortable regular mice felt lovely and poorly designed to use.

But it didn't fix it completely since my work involved a ton of tiny movements with wrist. So I just skipped that step and went to trackball, namely finger ball trackball as thumb trackball is dumb and just reks your thumb. That did fix it completely.
Plus now trackball feels so good I don't even whip out my mouse unless its the rare ultra sweaty gaming session.
I'm using elecom huge with zircon bearings upgrade and polished ball. Can't reccomend it unless you can spend exactly 70 bucks. Get a gameball or kensington blade instead.

No not really haven't even heard of it. If I had I would've probs considerd it.

My.main issue with elecom is that the mouse wheel is awful (the clicks mainly)and you need proprietary software running 24/7 to rebind the buttons.

I'm thinking of upgrading to gameball or such and giving my elecom to some friend.

Thankfully, I have not had that issue, yet, after over 1,000 hours with the mouse.

And I do remember your effort post on that from earlier. :)

1000 hours is around 3 months of 12 hours a day usage.
