Kinesis Savant Elite2 Programmable Triple Foot Pedal (FP30A)

I got this to relieve discomfort in my hands from repretetive mouse clicking, and that goal was achieved 10-fold. My RSI hand problems have gone away (Also credited to this kinesis productKinesis KB600 Advantage2 USB Contoured Keyboard (Black) with SmartSet Programming Technology for PC and MAC Plus Kingston DataTraveler SE9 8GB USB 2.0 AND Plus Jestik Microfiber - VALUE BUNDLE). Highly recommended for anyone with similar problems.PROS:- Quality build, theres nothing cheap-feeling about the design and construction.- Long chord- Programming works wellCON:- You can adjust the tension of the pedal on the bottom, but the range of options is not very extensive. It would be nice if the pedals could be adjusted to be just a little more sensitive, as even the most sensitive setting is slightly 'stiff' to press. This is not a huge issue, just a minor nit-pickHighly recommended to anyone!!

As with many things you often get what you pay for. This is no exception. The quality is amazing. It's heavy duty, and doesn't feel cheap. Pressing buttons with my feet is perfect, no issues at all. I read some reviews of people saying it was too difficult to press but that's not been my experience. Plus there is a thing you can use to change how heavy or light you want the pedals. Most important of all is I didn't have to download any software! The cheaper pedals make you use software which is dodgy at best and can make your computer run a few % slower, it adds up though.

Well built, sturdy, metal construction with a firm, solid feel. Although there are apps to configure this, the manual gives instructions for writing your own configuration file. Unlike many other footswitches, Mac users do not need a PC to program the SE2.For the Mac, there are things to know. Per Kinesis Support: "if you intend to use the SE2 to modify keypresses on a keyboard, this will not work, MacOS has a limitation where it will not allow one USB device to modify another." and that is correct.The workaround is to to treat it as a specialized input device such as a trackball or mouse. Download a mouse controller such as Steermouse and now you have a lot more functionality including the ability to assign keyboard modifiers such as Cmd, Sht, Opt and Cntl. Ok, Steermouse is not free but, if you need this functionality, you pay the 20 bucks after the a 30 day eval period.The instructions and onboard apps predate 64 bit MacOS but the web site has the updated app. You run it on your Mac and save the pedals.txt file to the Active folder inside the SE2.

These are good sturdy pedals and the software is pretty easy to use. Though you do have to flip a switch on the back of the pedals to program it. A couple people in my house use them on occasion. However the only downfall is that if you have larger feet the middle pedal of the 3 is pretty much useless. Simply not enough space in between the pedals. Tiny setup.Again. The middle pedal is hard to access unless you have smaller feet and remove your shoes. Should have gotten a set of two with a port and an extra pedal to move off to the side. But that's crazy spendy.

The media could not be loaded. Sometime a few weeks ago I decided to try out this programming language and proof assistant called Agda. I got a little carried away and found myself churning and churning in Emacs for 14 hours, with new foreign key combinations.Lo and behold, now I have a bad case of Emacs Pinky. I'm a computer science professor so, well, that kind of sucks.What ought I to do when things kind of suck? Complain on Twitter, obviously. So I did, and someone unironically suggested buying a footpedal for the control key. I thought that was hilarious enough to maybe actually be worth trying.OK, so now I have Emacs Pinky from 14 hours of learning a new programming language, and also I've spent almost $200 on literal programmable footpedals. Um, nerd alert.But it turns out the footpedals are kind of awesome. In Ubuntu I can program them to map to modifiers, so now right pedal is control and center pedal is shift. Left pedal is a shortcut I always use to navigate: alt + tab.Today I was able to write and program mostly pain-free. I hope it continues! I'm a bit less efficient than I was before, but I think I'll adjust.Also, like, if I'm being real, having a footpedal for Emacs and Ubuntu shortcuts makes me feel leet. 6/5 would repeat this ridiculous impulse buy; highly recommended.

I’ve played Escape from Tarkov for a year as my first PC game in over a decade. I entered the game with a hand injury and found certain key binds difficult, but I got them down. The one thing I couldn’t get, leaning. After watching Geekseh for a bit and listening to him preach the gospel, I picked up a set of pedals. I did some research and found these. These pedals are robust. I can rest my feet on top of the pedals and then apply the pressure needed to actuate the switch, no problem. No false inputs and the switch holds the weight of my foot without me having to do a weird hover thing. The switches are clicky and defined. The pedal itself, while plastic, is thick and doesn’t feel like it break if I stomp a little too hard. These pedals have enabled me to play the game I love to the fullest and you can’t put a price on that.

I don't know why other people are saying this product doesn't require a lot of force. I'm a 28 year old male, pretty stout body build. I have to literally slam down on this thing with my foot, as if I was slamming the brakes on my car. This sucker requires A LOT of force. Please be aware of this before purchasing.This product had so much potential, but this oversight literally makes this thing useless for me. Even at it's lowest level of pressure, you still have to slam the thing down, taking almost all of your quad muscle to it. I would not recommend this to product to anyone for this reason. Such a shame, this product could have been so good....
