The Basilisk Essential by Razer uses an Optical sensor, providing a DPI/CPI range of 6,400 DPI max. This results in a tracking speed of 220ips, and a maximum acceleration of 30G. It uses a USB connection with a 1.8 m cable. It weighs in at 95 g without the cable and is approximately 125 x 75 x 43 mm (LxWxH).
