Mad Catz B.A.T. 6+

The Mad Catz B.A.T. 6+ is an impressive FPS gaming mouse. It's somewhat lightweight in its lightest configuration and feels well-built. It also has an ambidextrous shape suitable for all grip types and nearly all hand sizes, though small hands may not comfortably reach both side buttons on either side using a fingertip grip. Performance-wise, it has a low lift-off distance, very low click latency, a maximum polling rate of 2000Hz, and you can precisely adjust the CPI by increments of 50 within a very broad range. Unfortunately, the sensor on our unit is also very inconsistent, undershooting the set CPI more during faster mouse movements.
