I am starting to get some arthritis / pain in my clicker finger! (im only 24!) anyone know of a very easy clicking mouse that wont require as much force? My Microsoft Explorer 2.0 is ancient and still requires a pretty good bit of clicking force. I think my Razer Diamondback is a bit easier but I want something that feels like nothing! Work requires a lot of clicking and I want my hands to last a lifetime preferably!
 
check your desk ergonomics, chances are its not your finger and the clicking caus ei highly doubt you could get arthritis from simply clicking a button . I bet its how your wrist sits on the desk and what degree its turned to
 
This mouse I use at work is pretty easy to click.. Just a plain old microsoft optical mouse...

On the bottom it says WHeel Mouse Optical 1.1A much easier to click than my Razer Copperhead
 
It is quite possible that it is just the desk, my wrists hurt too and I have noticed that while im at home, even though the diamondback has resistance too my finger doesnt start hurting as bad.

This microsoft mouse though has a bit of a break over point where its hard to push at first then gets really easy and makes me end up pushing against solid mouse at the bottom when it breaks over into zero resistance (though it never bothered me much during general home usage the past year or so).
 
My MX18 fits my hand pretty damn good. WOuld also suggest a good wrist pad for KB and Mouse. Also you should ice both hards about once a week if they are starting to get sore, i usually do mine a few times. Mainly when i'm watching movies and such
 
I'm a big fan of having deskspace to rest my entire arm on up to my elbow, that theory also applies to keyboard action. I NEVER use those useless ergonomic trays and always take them off and slap the goods on the desk straight up. That's how I roll. As for an easy to click mouse? I can't say I've ever noticed one to be easier than another, sorry.

I think I may need some bigger thicker wrist pad type stuff though. I dont have "big" hands but I can press caplocks and enter at the same time with one hand (though it would be awkward). Darn this world made for small people!
 
i notice sometimes my finger gets sore, but alot of times its from the scroll wheel, try switching to use your middle finger on the scroll wheel.
 
Been using the middle finger for everything!

Lethal may be on to something though, maybe I should bring my diamondback to work and set the side button as the clicker... or maybe buy a new mouse with easy to reach side buttons to set as the main clicker and alternate using my pointer finger and thumb to ease the stress! Perhaps that 20 buck laser mouse for sale on woot!
