Zowie EC1 or EC2 - Page 2

post #11 of 17
To be fair I don't think it's the size of the EC2 that hurts my hand, more like the steep arch. Which would be the same with the EC1.

I have the AM and longfinger to palm is 18cm for me, at first I would have pain/cramp in my hand because the mice is so thin in middle as you can see in pictures, it is 58mm at thinnest and at bottom it is 65mm wide.

I used to be a high sensitivty player using just my wrist 10cm/360.
for couple of days I played 20cm and yesterday I played 30cm/360 and now the pain/cramp is alot less in my hands.
Ive learned to move my arm more not just the wrist, my understanding is that for games like CS:GO you shoul use arm for moving and wrist for aiming.

I never realized the EC2 EVO is shorter and wideness is EXACT same dimension as the AM, but the EC2 EVO is made for right handed users, it's wery possible I buy the EC2 EVO, also note that the EVO has same sensor as AM, the EC2 without EVO has a older sensor with prediction.

So the EC2 evo is shorter and made for right hand compared to AM ambidexterous design.
Ive read one user comment on the EC2 stating it is good for 18cm long finger to palm and if you have 19cm go for the EC1 Evo.

Edit--> I don't like the fact that the led is on top of mouse on the EC, the AM has red light but is is bare visibly.

Yeh I was thinking more in the form of opening it up, desoldering and resoldering maybe 2 wires?

Well youre warranty would be destroyed, looking at ppl seems like mice tend to die.

Personaly I would consider desolderging the led completely as I want led free mouse smile.gif
