RAZER Revamps The Razer Lachesis: Familar Form, More Function
Razer, the world's leading manufacturer of high-end precision gaming and lifestyle peripherals, is pleased to announce the much anticipated refresh of the legendary Razer Lachesis. Equipped with a new 5600dpi Razer Precision 3.5G laser sensor and a customizable multi-color LED lighting system, the newly updated Razer Lachesis maintains its original form, comfort and price, while advancing power, performance and precision.
"The all new Razer Lachesis is about giving gamers more personal choice and customizable options," said Robert "Razerguy" Krakoff, president, Razer USA. "With a multi-color LED for customizable color and a built-in variable dpi, the Razer Lachesis gives gamers everything they need for this three-year fan favorite."
Gamers now have the choice to customize the LED lights on the mouse from a range of 16 million colors. To top it off, the Razer Lachesis allows gamers to customize those colors individually, so each of the illuminated areas can glow a different color.

The new Razer Lachesis is an upgraded replacement for the original ambidextrous mouse and is now equipped with a massive 5600dpi Razer Precision 3.5G laser sensor and nine programmable Hyperesponse buttons.

With several options for complete customization including a full, multi-color LED that allows gamers to choose from 16 million glowing hues, as well as a variable dpi setting that can be adjusted in 125 dpi increments for true precision and control, the updated Razer Lachesis is the ideal option for gamers that value the art of tweaking to their exact specifications.

Only got it due to the 2nd Diamondback failing with cheap plastic button which wear in no time which courses harder to press then double clicking which can be solved buy modding the inside but come one dam things should last more than a year..
I've had enough of there BS and BS support saying what they did to you or to many other WERE ON IT which my issue has been around for years according to searches.
So F&(# them..
Only one mouse is even more tragic than this.. SteelSeries Xai (thats mouse that can be called "tragicomedical" .. its so bad, that you must laugh not cry).
Today Im puzzled what to buy, I tested countless mices and except DeathAdder V1, its from small fail to epic fail. Seems like none is able to create decent working gaming mouse.
steelseries xai dimensions are close to the Wheel Mouse Optical. the shell is thick and has a soft rubber coating on it. it weighs 94g without USB Cable. it has a good center of gravity. the sensor lens is perfectly centered on the bottom of the mouse. the primary microswitches are Omron D2F-J01F, secondary microswitches are TTC. scroll wheel is tactile. sensor has more functionality than other mice using the Avago 9500 laser sensor and is practically driverless with the LCD on the bottom of the mouse.
Forget the laser, Razer. I'll be the first in line to buy when you bring back an optical mouse (without the horrible ergonomics of the Lachesis, of course). :)
off topic- I may have to dish out for a R.A.T. 9 when it's released.
Wonder If I could squeeze the (single eye) sensor from creative Fatal1ty mouse to the raven... Guess not. Also the 500 MHz polling rate doesn't cut in for me.
On the news... I once grabbed a Lachesis and it felt like... :nutkick: (the yellow guy) or :cry:
G9x should be a good mouse, G500 is.
