    Unfortunately not with my Stinger through it away a couple of weeks ago as its laser failed, and wanted to fix it didn't have the time or patience to do it.

    I will try to compare it to my X8 though, just need a camera now.

    Its a very large mouse, I bought one to play with and test for a bit, the software interface is really awesome, you can choose ANY colour for the LED display, you can adjust the Horizontal and Vertical sensitivity independantly, and the mouse does up to 5000 DPi to which is insane.
    All the extra buttons sure take some getting used to, but i have found them plenty usefull in WoW and FPS games for weapon binds, chat macros etc.
    A real utilitarian device indeed!

    This is by far the best spent R800. All the reviews I read about this mouse was a bit sceptical, always a thing they didn't like, but I must really say its amazing. I don't play WOW so u might think why did n buy a WOW mouse. Well the reason is I like the shape and the 14 customizable buttons. Yes its a bit big and I have small hands and it works for me. Its grate for FPS (even if some of the reviews say it isn't) as well as RTS.

    I just want to add something to my post, as this was a big issue for me until I figured it out.

    How to assign the other buttons to custom macros as I cant find any review that shows you how to do so.

    To use all the buttons in FPS you must create macros on the software downloaded as per the manual and assign the buttons to keys not used on the keyboard.

    First you must create macros. Here I used my num pad keys as they are the ones I use the least.

    First install the downloaded software
    Open the Cataclysm program
    Open the "Button Assignment" tab on the right.
    Click on "Custom Macros" then "New"
    Tick "No Delay"
    Under "Name" type the key you are using on your keyboard, in my case it is "Num 1"
    Then click on the big white block and press the button you want to use "Num 1"
    Then click "OK"

    Secondly assign the button on the mouse to that "Num 1"

    You will see in the middle of the Cataclysm Software screen there are numbers referring to buttons on the mouse.
    Now click on a mouse button you want to assign to "Num 1"
    When you click on exp. 14 the "Button Assignment" tab will pop open.
    Then click on "Custom Macros"
    Select "Num 1"
    Press "Apply"
    Wait a few seconds

    Now to test if that worked.

    Open a new word pad document.
    When open press the button on the mouse you assign "Num 1" to and if a "1" appears on the paper you have done the macros assignment correct.

    Go back to the Cataclysm software and set the rest of the buttons up as explain above.

    I did the following assignment

    14 to "Num 8"
    13 to "Num 9"
    12 to "Num 1"
    11 to "Num 2"
    10 to "Num 3"
    9 didn't changes as this is assigned to "Back" in windows
    8 didn't changes as this is assigned to "Forward" in windows
    7 to "Num 4"
    6 to "Num 6"
    5 to "Num 7"
    4 to "Num 5"
    3 didn't changes as this is assigned to "Universal Scroll" in windows
    2 didn't changes as this is assigned to "Right Click" in windows
    1 didn't changes as this is assigned to "Left Click" in windows

    My reason for this is when u start at the left button "12" it will be "Num 1"
    and working your way around the mouse from left to right the assignment will be "Num 1, Num 2, Num 3, Num 4 ext"

    So now when you are in a FPS (in my case COD 4) assign your buttons to your liking.

    I assigned "12" to "Melee attack"
    Next to "Melee attack" "KP End" was written, don't worry.
    If you look at your num pad you will see "Num 1" also says "End"

    Then I assigned "9" to "Reload"
    Next to "Reload" "Mouse 4" was written.
    That's because you didn't assign anything to mouse button "9" as mouse button "9" is "Back" in windows an most games pick it up as "Mouse 4"

    Further then that there isn't anything more to say about assigning buttons

    Hope this helps those of you with the same problem I had.
