Hi I am going to invest in a Vertical Mouse as I am getting forearm pain, can you offer any advice? Also I was wondering if I should go Wireless? I've been looking through this lot - Insight and this one is catching my eye Evoluent VerticalMouse 4 Right - vertical mouse - 2.4 GHz
Went with this one a year or two ago and I don't regret it I felt the same week my wrist and hand reliefed. https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/mice/mx-vertical-ergonomic-mouse.910-005447.html
I have unfortunately the opposite experience. Couldn't work with a vertical mouse at all. It is collecting dust here now. So before you invest, have a look if you can really work that way. Or if you can optimize your workflow further to not use the mouse this much.
a vertical mouse isn't a bad idea, especially if your workstation/habits aren't the most ergonomic and particularly if you're suffering muscular pain in your forearms I've been using the cheap anker/trust wireless ones for several years - they tend to die after 18 months or so but at about £13 each they're basically…
I use a Cherry vertical mouse at work, not because I had already issues but for trial, because I was curious. I do prefer the hand position, it feels more relaxed. One problem, there are not many models to choose from, I think it's more important that the mouse fits to your hand. What I personally think is the most…
Currently road testing this cheep wireless vertical in tandem with a portable purchase, I'd recently splashed out on a Gigabyte A7 K1 17.3" notebook. Thus far I'd say fairly adequate, as a first time user going down the 'ergonomic' track (...long afflicted with intermittent Carpal Tunnel throughout the master hand wrist &…
Wow, poor you, I feel like I have nothing to moan about now. I will try the stretching, physiotherapy and get some professional advice. I am trying this TECWARE Torque mouse for a bit as I tried my work mates vertical mouse but in no time I was getting more pain, could be due to using different mussels and I am over…
That Logitech vertical is the exact same mouse I picked up. I totally agree with @Eric Chadwick that it is not for everyone as mine ended up at the local recycling center. Some of these investments become a hit or miss per user. Best bet is to modify the workflow as suggested by @Alex_J and @pior for 1-3 months. If that…
Yeah sounds like a short term solution to combat a long term issue. The Evoluent always looks a little extreme in how its angled, like it might not be that comfortable and require some relearning of mouse skills. There are vertical mice out there that are more of a blend between that and a typical flat mouse. I went with a…
Almost all 3d software require the user to hold down a click in order to move a component. This doesn't sound like much, but it is extremely stressing to the hands. Even worse when MMB is involved. You'll realize that once you'll try the Blender method of tapping a transform hotkey and just moving the mouse around to…
