Just ordered the Mad Catz RAT 8+ from OCUK

I used to own a really old version of the Mad Catz RAT mouse line in about 2014 or 2015 and loved the fact it was so comfortable and easy to configure to your exact hand shape and size so after much thinking I decided to order it.

The only problem is that it is out of stock on OCUK so I have no idea when I'll get it. Has anyone else used this mouse at all? I've been wanting a new mouse ever since my Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum decided to die on me.

I had one of those a few years ago and for me it was the worst mouse i've ever used , used it for about a week then slung it in the bin. And the best mouse I've used to date is my Zowe EC1-A , which I still have but at the momeant I'm trying to get used to this one https://www.overclockers.co.uk/duck...l-gaming-mouse-dmfe20o-oaapa7b-kb-26r-dk.html it's small , very lite almost a bit too quick after a firmware update but its nice

I had a Mad Catz M.M.O.7, and I think it was probably my favourite mouse ever. It died at about the same time that Mad Catz did, so I couldn't get another. Coincidentally, I also ended up with a G502 Proteus Spectrum. Seeing that Mad Catz have somehow managed to return from beyond the grave almost makes me want my current mouse to die, so I can have an excuse to try this new one. Sadly it has proven quite durable.

I can see why some people wouldn't like it. I like large heavy mice so being able to expand it in terms of size and add the extra weights to an already heavy mouse made it into something that I loved.
