Used my duel optical since around 2002 ish. Cost over $100.00 best investment made.

Time to upgrade to duel laser.

First person is so much better, how ever they dont work on everything (some table tops ect)

My 2c

i use the track ball mouse (the one with the big red ball on top ) ive had it for 9 years il never go back to a normal ball /lazer mouse again hell ive even gone out and bought a spare one for when this one dies

Edited by japwpn
Hahahaha I still use an original microsoft mouse....has the ball and no scroll wheel :P

Might as well dust off the chisel and go back to writing on rock tablets its such old tech :D

Mines an IBM original...had to drop the ball out of it and clean the rollers in it last night

I've been using a wacom graphire at home since 2002 which I scored when I upgraded to a Intuos at work. so my pc's totally miceless.

edit: actually i tell a fib, sometimes some apps don't support it, which is when the MS optical mouse comes out of the drawer.

i got an intuos 3 at home, used to do a lot of flash animation, now i use it mostly in photoshop for painting crap

I use a laser mouse, i'm part nerd :down: due to my job :ermm:

Nah, seriously though, if you want a mouse that works on every surface, is extremely reliable and uses one set of batteries every 6 months try a laser,

I've got a laser desktop, wireless keyboard and mouse set, only cost just over $100

There is no cool red light like an optical, but when you have an optical running on batteries and change them once a week or so, it gets pretty annoying

cordless FTL. latency, weight from batteries, lower resolution and constantly having to recharge all makes them blow goats, and the only decent cordless ones that solve these issues are like over $100 for the mouse alone. I can deal with a wire attached to my PC.

yeh mines wired and laser, 2400 dpi if i remember correctly so has plenty of resolution, dont need to bump up the OS respose and loose your accuracy. not a fan of wireless ones unless they have a dock instead of batteries

always wondered with the price of cast polymer batteries in mobile phones why they couldn't make a cheap rechargeable mouse that's light and has no need for AAA batteries.

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
