after being on tl.net for a longg time and seeing people talk about how much they love razers and well, i also thought it was awesome that razer helped sponsor TL too

so i planned to buy some of their stuff somewhere down the line and well today is that day.

i bought a lycosa backlit keyboard. (ive been using the logitech wave and really like the curve of it); so im taking time just readjusting to a "normal" keyboard but the rubberish keys feel awesome and the backlight is neat too

and for the mouse

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM???
i got the deathadder razer and the buttons are extremely easy to click. i understand why gamers would like that but i mean, even when im just resting and leaving my hand idle on the mouse, the weight alone of my fingers start clicking. its sooo annoying. what the mother heck !!!!!

i have to actively flex my fingers so that they dont like fall on the clicks when im just trying to read something like an article.

I have the deathadder, I think its great. As for the "extremely easy to click" mouse buttons, do you use a Palm grip? Razer mice are really designed for claw grips, otherwise you run into problems such as inadvertently clicking.

EDIT: Actually, I just tried palm gripping my Deathadder, it doesn't inadvertently click for me. So I really don't know how youre doing it O.o

yea. i like to palm the mouse. because i dont really game that much so it's a habit for me to just rest the whole hand on the mouse.

and i keep clicking non stop. i cant control it!!

are all razers like this? i mean cuz i'd really like a razer but if they are all like this then i dont think i can keep it. its just not my cup of tea... everything else about it is awesome. just.. i cant stop clicking accidentally.

You just need to get used to it. I had this issue too when I switched from Logitech MX500 to Razer Copperhead.

I changed my grip and suddenly it all made sense =)

I've always wanted to buy Razer stuff, especially since they sponsored the TSL, but even before that...

Problem is it's just always so damn expensive. =(

Razer deathadder is a palm grip mouse. It was designed that way. It's design is a near replica of the intellimouse explorer 3.0 save a higher arch( making the mouse more comfortable in my opinion compared to the intellimouse explorer 3.0). Death adder, Imperator, and Mamba are definitely designed as Palm grip mice. And if you ever have sweaty hand syndrome due to the glossy sides, I found that getting some painter's tape (blue tape) and covering the sides will help you grip the mouse LOADS better. My hands would lose grip on the sides of the death adder after about 30 minutes so I made this quick fix.

For your clicking, i find that you rest the weight of your mouse toward the middle back where your palm is, you'll avoid that problem. I had your same problem the first day I got my Death Adder. I was still using my Intellimouse explorer and wasn't used to the extremely sensitive left/right click.

I use a palm grip on my DeathAdder and it's alright. I guess just give it a couple of days and see if you adjust to it

I've been thinking about buying some razer products myself, do they actually make a noticeable difference with mouse speed/accuracy?

Yes. Im on another computer with a regular Logitech mouse. Since this wasent a high end computer i decided to play some Osu! And it was disastrous The mouses accuracy was horrible for it. I got my deathadder from my other computer and could easily do the higher difficulty.

The accidental clicking might be because you are used to another mouse - a mouse that required more effort to click I guess? I claw with my ancient copperhead... so I don't know about palm-ers.

Once you use the mouse for a few days you will stop the accidental click thing, it happened to me too when i bought my deathadder. Now that im used to it it never happens.

Everytime I change mouses that happens to me lol, I keep on clicking when I'm just resting... After some time you get used to it and don't click it anymore. (I have a deathadder)

heyy guys

my hand in general isnt that big and my fingers arent like freakishly long.
maybe i am not used to it but man.. i do misclick a lot...

and for the person who said too bad about me getting the Lycosa keyboard..

i wasn't willing to spend more than what the lycosa was going for...

and the one underneath it, the arctosa i think? didn't have backlight and i thought the backlight aspect of the lycosa was cool. but i feel that you're right. because of the rubberish material, it does seem like it can attract a lot of like dandruff or whatever. and the plastic, glossy finish will definitely keep fingerprint smudges.

oh well... you kept the keyboard for 2 years didnt u?? =) good enough for me!

I have a Lyacosa Mirror edition and yes, it gets dirtier than fucking anything I've ever seen in my life.

You'll clean it every three or four days and then after a few weeks you're just like. FUCK THIS SUCKS. My keyboard looks all fingerprinty and icky. I just clean it for LANs and that's it.

The other thing with the Lyacosa is that if you button mash, your keys can fall off. Right now my up arrow is actually my "2 v" key from my numpad cause my up arrow fell off a long time ago and I can't find it. So don't button mash too hard. Course my Lyacosa is a few years old. Could just be normal wear and tear.



I have similar issues with my DeathAdder, but it's really only a problem with how I sit/hand position on the mouse, as is likely your problem. Give it some time to adjust. If I put too much weight on my armrest for like, browsing the internet or whatever, I tend to misclick the right button like, every two minutes. Just find a good hand-position where it doesn't happen and work to keep it that way.

Good luck! Thankfully I haven't had the dreaded "Razer stuff breaks super quickly" issue yet so we'll see how things go for you! :D

My only issue with the Deathadder is that, for reasons unknown to me, when I'm in Mac OS, I usually turn off mouse acceleration so I can play games. When I kill mouse acceleration, then start SC2, it's suddenly back on again.

Doesn't seem to happen with other mice

I had an Arctosa for a while and switched to a Logitech Illuminated Keyboard, and it's like night and day (and not just because I now have a backlight, hur hur):

This keyboard is so quiet compared to the Arctosa it's indescribable.

The keys feel 100x times better as well. They're low profile keys, but they have that same "pop" that regular keyboards have. I went from the giant blue Logitech G15 to a Razer Arctosa, and ended up going back to the G15 thinking I just didn't like low profile keyboards for gaming. I kept the Arctosa for typing, but decided to get this Logitech Illuminated Keyboard because it's far, far, FAR quieter. I now understand that the keys on the Arctosa are just crap and that it wasn't the fact they were low profile. I refuse to game or type on anything but this keyboard now.

(Image) Side view
It doesn't slide at all. In fact, when I first tested it and tried to slide it backwards, it's so solid I ended up sliding my keyboard drawer closed. You seriously have to pick this thing up to move it, which isn't a problem because it has a little lip on the sides.

(Image) Sexy white and orange backlight
It has a sexy as hell white/orange back light with three brightnesses and an off state. Unlike the G15, you can see the characters very, very clearly when the backlight is off. In the image you can see the numlock sign on the bottom. The caps/scrol/num lock indicators are a bright white on the right side of that black strip when on, and invisible when toggled off.

(Image) Function keys
The orange functions work out of the box without having to install drivers or software.

(Image) Raised bottom row
The bottom row (with space) is raised a bit, which is so incredible for low profile keyboards it should be standard. It makes ctrl+# so comfortable, and when typing with my thumb on the space key it feels so natural compared to hitting the body of the Arctosa with my thumb's joint.

It's the exact same length as the Arctosa, so no lost real estate.

The volume/backlight keys at the top right are regular buttons, not that crap "flat" section like the razer ones, which are ugly and hard to press properly.

This is seriously the best damn keyboard I've ever used in my life. Well worth the cost.

I do use a Razer mouse though, the Abyssus, and it's amazing. Logitech just owns them in keyboards.
