chemistu The massive trackball on the Elecom Huge Plus means that you cannot easily purchase a third-party replacement to change its color 52mm is a standard pool ball size so you can just use one of those. L-TRAC trackballs used another poolball size (57mm) I replaced the ball in mine, I found the weight gives a bit more fine control and lets you 'spin' the ball rapidly to edges of the screen (though don't get me started on the L-TRAC itself…). Not sure about the trackball though, the button layout looks like it should be used like a mouse with the first and middle fingers on the buttons leaving the ball to be controlled with thumb. That seems a bit impractical, I found the best thumb operated trackballs have the ball on the side like the Logitech Trackman. Reply

M1 is actually operated by your thumb along with the scroll wheel and the forward and back buttons. Those buttons to the right of the ball itself are M2 and a programmable button meant for your middle and ring finger respectively. Your index finger rotates the actual ball. At least that's how it worked with my Deft Pro. Edit: Looks to be the case upon looking closely at the overhead image. Reply

Villager_A As someone who has been using the older Elecom HUGE for FPS gaming, I find it hard to go back to traditional mouse. My only issue with it was that the encoder on the scroll wheel died relatively quickly and I had to replace the encoder using one from the ROG Gladius III. It has more resistance then the original but I prefer it this way more Reply
