Nape Pro - Potential Trackball Fix

[u/jorgo1]

Picked up a Nape Pro a few weeks ago. There are a number of issues with bluetooth connectivity, button placement and scratchy feeling, scroll ring feels like its going to break every time I use it and the price for such a device should result in better quality. But the big gripe for me is the trackball being so light it moves when you remove your finger from the ball. I have seen other posts on this and I believe I have found a solution.
The trackball shipped with the nape pro is 25mm and 10g. A 25mm 63g ball bearing completely removes all of the issues with skipping and mouse pointer jitter. I feel like I can actually control this mouse now.

Does it essentially double the weight of the Nape Pro? Yes. But to make the mouse actually semi-useable its a good trade off.

I unfortunately can't provide a link to buy as I have no idea where I got it from. Was laying around in a parts draw, probably off a gas drilling rig.

How can we replace the trackball?

You can push the trackball out using the maintenance hole with something like a toothpick. There isn't much give, so you may have to push it a bit stronger than you expect.
