CurlyFred Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 This happened with my first M65 on which the right pad (when looking at the underside) which wore to a concave state in under two weeks. This M65 is wearing very fast on the back pad, slightly less on the right and not much on the left, but they all have a concave patch now. The front two feet have not worn at all and look brand new. I am using it with a Corsair MM200 cloth pad. Anyway I was wondering if this is just what happens, cause at this rate of wear it looks like it will need new feet every six months and I know from experience they do not come off easily. So If anyone could let me know the wear they've experienced that would help a lot. Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 14, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 14, 2013 I've been using the mouse on a Corsair Mousepad for over a year and didn't have this issue. I can replace the feet for you though if you'd like to try a new set to rule out a bad pad, just put in a RMA request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyFred Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hello thanks for the reply. This is my second mouse now the retailer (ebuyer) replaced my first one after I had the same issue as well as a sensor issue. So you're probably right that it is the mouse pad, so I will put an RMA in for it. I was wondering though if I could get the M65 switched for an M95 and pay the difference if that's possible. Again thank you for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the feet on the pre-release model you have been using are different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 17, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 17, 2013 My mouse is actually a retail version. I can take a picture though of the condition if you'd like to compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitstreak Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 hey guys, I have a Corsair M60 mouse and the feet on it are worn so much that the metal on the front of the mouse is making contact instead of the feet themselves. should I just buy a new mouse or can i buy replacement feet?

CurlyFred Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 RAM GUY can you post a picture of your mouse for comparison please. I am on the fourth mouse now and within two weeks the wear is very clear and far more than I think should occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted June 20, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted June 20, 2013 I posted a picture of my M60 and the M65 from a coworker who has used it since launch (no mousepad either). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothinPersonal Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 @ Ram Guy... any thoughts of making aluminum mouse feets? I know it's an odd thing to inquire about but it has crossed my mind. Honestly, I tried using those old flat batteries as mouse feet by using double sided tape to hold them in place and I tell you it definitely works. Only down side is it works too good and slippery on a Vespula mouse pad textured side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ithehappy Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I posted a picture of my M60 and the M65 from a coworker who has used it since launch (no mousepad either). Those photos are ridiculously small, still I think I see enough wear/scratches there. It depends on what surface you are using however, no mat means you probably use it on desk, huge friction, thus more wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny part about these mouse feets are when a speck of dust gets inbetween the feet and the mouse pad it feels like there is boulder underneath there grinding and scratching the mouse pad every time I move the mice... lol. I mean, that's the feeling I get when using the mamba 2012. Not sure how other people would describe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
