  • Tips & Tricks Guide

    Tip 1: The BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform is designed to be extremely comfortable. Our first tip, and this is counter-intuitive, but try placing and using your BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform on your lap. Many customers have written in to let us know using their eXpress on their lap is extremely comfortable. More than anything, the key to avoiding Repetitive Stress Injuries is to avoid repetition, so swapping your eXpress from your desktop to your lap is a great way to avoid repetition.


    Tip 2: Another great way to avoid repetition is to get in the habit of using your less dominant hand for trackpad gestures including scrolling, expose, and back and forth in your browser. At first trying to become ambidextrous will seem awkward, but if you continue to persist, it should assist you in avoiding repetitive injury.


    Tip 3: The BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform has become an invaluable tool not only with Mac, PC and Home Theater setups, but now works wonderfully with your iPad.

    How do I clean my BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform?

    If small small particles like food crumbs fall in between the trackpad edge and eXpress, you can use a dry brush to get them out. Make-up brushes work really well for this. For general cleaning, use a paper towel that is lightly dampened.

    My BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform seems like it might be sitting up a little to high. What can I do?

    Try placing your BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform closer or further away to achieve the optimum positioning. Many customers love using their BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platforms on their lap as doing so offers a counter-intuitive excellent position.

    When using my BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform I notice that sometimes the cursor seems to randomly jump to a different part of my screen, which is confusing.

    The "Jumping Cursor" occurs typically based upon the cadence at which somebody types. If you type carefully and gently, and don't let your palm tap the trackpad by mistake, this will not occur. Typers who type really fast, or violently are more likely to inadvertently touch the trackpad with their palms. In other words, it is important to place your keyboard in a position which does NOT allow your palm to register an erroneous tap.
