It's clear from a quick glance of the packaging that the Skorpios is part of the same range of gaming peripherals as the Meduza. The box features a very similar black and red livery as well as a large window which surrounds the bungee inside on three sides.
Turning the box around reveals a list of the features and specifications of the bungee in English and what appears to be Chinese to an untrained eye. This packaging should provide adequate protection for the Skorpios during transit.
The bungee itself is finished almost exclusively in matte-black. The only exception is a small red Skorpios badge on the base. This means that the bungee will compliment the vast majority of mice aesthetically, not just the Meduza.
Even though the base of the bungee is finished in plastic, we expect there is a metal lump in there somewhere as it's reasonably weighty. In conjunction with a large rubber pad on the underside, this helps keep the bungee firmly planted to the desk during use.
We imagine that the Epic Gear named this product ‘Skorpios' because it looks rather like a Scorpion. The ‘tail' of the scorpion is made from rubber and forms the bungee part of the unit. The tail features a slot along the top and down the back which holds the mouse cable in place.
The bungee functions exactly as you'd expect, keeping the mouse cable tidy and out of the way while gaming. There is plenty of flexibility in the arm which gives the mouse a wide range of movement without much restriction.
Very interesting mouse design indeed, wasnt expecting something so radical on a technical level.
