GroovyGameGear
has been lacking a trackball offering, but no more. In true GGG style, we weren't content to just slap a new name on an existing product. We wanted to offer a better trackball, with higher performance and ultimate "bling" appeal. The Electric ICE-T™ Deluxe RGB Arcade Trackball V2.0 is the result of our efforts in that direction.


The following are un-retouched photos straight from the R&D bench in a normally lit room:








And if you want to see the pulsing and color-changing effects possible when used with an LED-Wiz, just download the video HERE. Note: the top part of the case was removed for this video to demonstrate just how powerfully the ball is illuminated by the RGB-OverDrive™ Trackball Lighting Unit. Update: This video was made using a Version 1 ball, but is still indicative of lighting quality.


Features:

  • Custom-made 3" Electric Ice™ Ball. Unlike other translucent trackballs the material captures the light instead of acting like a lens. The ball is highly polished. Perfect diffusion of the light and the exact same size and weight as the stock white ball that is normally used. Ultra-high scratch resistance and excellent tracking make this the best illuminated trackball money can buy...bar none.

  • Special Opti-Wiz™ based board. USB HID operation, with integrated Zero-BackSpin™ Technology, allows for perfect functionality on any USB capable system, and is not limited to only USB 2.0 based systems like some other trackball controls. Just plug and play! Interface is also PS/2 compatible and has connection points for 3 mouse buttons.

  • Illuminated by the RGB-OverDrive™ lighting unit with a retina-searing light output capability of up to 12 Super-Bright LEDs. (We aren't kidding, don't look straight into this when it's on!)

  • Enhanced Performance is made possible by a special version of the Trackball Booster™ Kit, which has been pre-installed. Provides 2.5x the resolution of other trackballs.

  • LED-Wiz™ compatible lighting. Uses only 3 outputs to provide pulsing and color changing effects. Can also be hardwired to 5v and manually configured for color.

  • Chrome-plated steel rollers and sealed ball bearing construction. "High-Lip" plastic enclosure. Spacer plate included.


A trackball unit like this one with all of the enhancements purchased separately would cost over $137.00 and you would still have to put all the pieces together yourself. We are offering this unit, fully assembled and ready to install, for only $116.95

For those looking to upgrade their current trackball to only the lighting capabilities of the Electric ICE-T™, a kit is also offered for only $36.95. It includes the RGB-Overdrive™ Trackball Lighting module, instructions, mounting hardware and choice of either 3" or 2.25" Electric ICE ball.


Wiring the RGB OverDrive™ lighting module:

There are 4 wires connected to the lighting module. The one marked with red is to be connected to a 5v DC power source. The other wires, in order following the 5v wire are Blue, Green and Red control lines. If you own an LED-Wiz™, these would be connected to 3 outputs of your choosing. Otherwise, to hard wire a specific color, just attach the desired colors control line to ground. This can be done in any combination you desire to achieve one of 7 colors, or small resistors can be added in series to create any color desired.


Additional Notes:

See this page for information and simple 3rd party software for setting higher poll rates which can help to achieve the highest possible accuracy on operating systems which do not properly honor USB hardware poll rate requests.
