OCZ Equalizer Laser Gaming Mouse Review

Installing the mouse

The Equalizer Laser Gaming Mouse is a true out-of-the-box piece of equipment. Just open the package, plug in on a vacant USB port and run a FPS game of your choosing (ours was Battlefield 2) to begin having fun. No installation disk required. As soon as the digital bullets started flying we were already giving three shots per click just as the box promises and changing mouse sensitivity according to our strategy.

When we got tired of gaming (ok, actually when we realized there was work to be done), we proceeded testing button configuration using the Equalware application. We assigned the forwards/backwards buttons above the thumb rest to “copy+paste” while running Word, and “prone position” when playing Battlefield, so we could try to dodge incoming fire hitting the ground fast. It’s also possible to change the vertical and horizontal sensitivity if you are into extreme customizing.
