Title: Help recognizing sensor on the TTesports Black Element
Post by: zareliman on Sun, 16 October 2011, 22:29:18
Hi

I have the TTesports Black Element which I thought had the Phillips Twin-Eye PLN 2302 since it offers 6500DPI (interpolation?) and since it's brother, the TTesports Black, has the Twin-Eye PLN 2301.
(Info taken from this post: http://www.overclock.net/mice/854100-ocn-mouse-reference-thread.html where the black element is still missing)

On the photos I've seen, the Phillips Twin Eye looks like one yellow lens while the Avago 9500 on my G500 has 2 small lenses one of them slightly blue (just like the TTesports Black Element).
Here I show some photos of known sensors to discover the true nature of the Black Element.

And the misterious sensor in the TTesports Black Element

What sensor do you think it is ? I vote for an Avago 9500 interpolated to 6500DPI.
I really haven't felt this z-axis issue with the TTesports Black Element in fact it jitters even less than my G500 (maybe because the G500 doesn't have the sensor in the middle).
