Full details
The Bakker Elkhuizen Evoluent Mouse Standard (Right Hand) is designed for users seeking ergonomic comfort to reduce muscle tension and improve arm and wrist posture during prolonged computer use. Its primary benefit is promoting a neutral 'handshake' grip, which can alleviate discomfort associated with traditional mouse use. A potential caveat for new users is the adjustment period required to become fully accustomed to the vertical mouse form factor.

FAQs
How do I get used to using a vertical mouse?
Start by using the vertical mouse for short periods and gradually increase usage time. Focus on a relaxed grip and let your arm do the movement rather than just your wrist. Many users find that after a few days to a week, the new posture becomes comfortable and natural.
What is the DPI and why is it fixed?
DPI (Dots Per Inch) refers to the mouse's sensitivity. A fixed 1500 DPI is chosen for this model to provide a balanced and stable cursor experience suitable for most common office tasks without requiring user adjustment. It aims for simplicity and reliability for everyday use.
Can I use this mouse with my left hand?
No, this is the 'Right Hand' model of the Evoluent Mouse Standard. It is specifically designed for right-handed users due to its ergonomic shape.
What is the warranty period for this mouse?
The Bakker Elkhuizen Evoluent Mouse Standard comes with a 5-year warranty.
Does this mouse require any special software installation?
No, the mouse uses Plug & Play technology and does not require any special software installation. It should work automatically once connected to your computer's USB-A port.
What are the dimensions of the mouse?
The mouse measures 82mm in width, 111mm in depth, and 77mm in height.
How long is the USB cable?
The USB cable has a length of 2.1 meters (2100mm), providing ample reach for most desk setups.
Troubleshooting
Mouse not moving the cursor
Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into the computer. Try a different USB port. Restart your computer.
Buttons or scroll wheel not working
Check for any debris around the buttons or scroll wheel. Disconnect and reconnect the mouse. Test on another computer to rule out software conflicts.
Cursor movement is jerky or inaccurate
Ensure the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse is clean and free of dust or smudges. Use the mouse on a suitable surface (avoid glass or highly reflective surfaces).
Device not recognized after plugging in
Verify that the USB port is functioning correctly by testing another device. Ensure your operating system is up to date. For older operating systems, check if specific USB drivers are required (though this mouse is Plug & Play).
