I've stopped buying Logitech mice for a long time. The quality is good in the past, and in fact, I am currently still using the G1 that is more than a decade old. Despite playing games like Diablo that requires crazy amount of clicks, I am very surprised it lasted this long. Subsequent mice I got from Logitech never lasts from my experience. Some died in less than 6 months, including wireless ones that starts to have connectivity issues.

it seems G1 also use omron mechanical switch

electronic wise... they always last pretty long...

good list of switches here

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=81743.0

interesting

D2FC-F-7N: 5 million times, feel the middle distance,

D2FC-F-7N 10M: 10 million times, feel slightly softer than a little bit

D2FC-F-7N 20M: 20 million times, feel a little soft crisp, silver alloy contacts, shrapnel slightly thicker

D2FC-F-7N 10M OF: enhanced version of D2FC-F-7N 10M, compared to the ordinary 7N (10M) the actual life is higher, even more efforts to rebound, domestic 0.74N series, is very hard and brittle one, can use the "rebound force simply fall" to describe this kind of Fretting

20M OF: more uniform, conservative life 20 million (20M and 10M (OF) is a new model)

D2FC-F-K (50M)Blue point): some of the early MS is similar, the same flexibility, more uniform intensity, relative to 20M OF slightly softer! Life up to 500 million times

My Logitech G400 had this problem last time. I keep it in my drawer for a few months and it magically starts working again.. really strange.

Knock wood. :D

i did this before... is pretty hard to fix

I fix until... no click sound and is pretty hard to assemble

in the end... bought those omrom switches from ebay.... I just managed to solder it... and tada... using my perfomance mx now

I also replace my right button just in case it fails soon.



I do have 3 extra omron switches... can help solder... but I am slow and need a macdonald meal for 2 :p

I’m well trained
Been replacing like this for the past 7 years
:o

I still have the original Intellimouse. I think this is the first M'soft mouse with optical sensor, right after the rubbery ball. Still works well but too bad it's corded. Now sitting in my hall of fame. :D

Acutally i have the opposite problem with my mouse, double click wont register or sometimes even single clicks doesnt. But i after i close the steelseries (using rival100) software, it work perfectly. My impression is sometimes its a software issue.
This happen to me. So I bring it to service center

You replaced with the JP ones? How's the tactile feel?

Just to chime in, there are mainly 2 types with different operating force(1.47 vs 0.74N). Also, one thing i noticed from the jp switches is that the pin plunger is very slightly taller than mic versions

Thanks. It's about time they spend more focus on mechanical mice with better switches.

Now quite interested in ROG mice but there are not many reviews out there.

Tried one of them before, the GX950. Wasn't too bad until the rubber coating started getting sticky after a year..... X_X then i never touched it again.

There are quite a number of mice out there right now that you can consider. Have a look in Reddit. I won't say too much since I work in a peripherals company myself and may be regarded as up-selling or trashtalking products. :s13:

Same here, one of the most lasting mouse I had. (I had both serial port and ps2 version)!

Been a few days and this one works well! In 2 hours, it fixed 100 double clicks problem with my old G602. The only major drawback is click-and-drag. Needs several tries still.

If you have some soldering skill, is best to open up and replace with new switch.

Any shops with ROG on display? Prefer more customizable buttons like G602 and bluetooth (hopefully). Can PM mice recommendations also if you dont mind ;)

Thought about this but have to get a soldering kit. Might consider dropping by SLT to give a bit of business to them.
