My Mouse Wheel

[USMC_Napier]

Hi all, my issue isn't that of major importance but it is an issue that I am starting to notice more and more as I've been using my mouse. I have a Razer DeathAdder 2013 and I heard small issues of the 2012 with the scroll wheel as well as also hearing they were fixed on the 2013 DeathAdder. The thing is my MouseWheel Up is much more responsive and registers better than my MouseWheel Down. I do use the Down direction a lot more than I use the Up direction and I'm certain that is the reason, I've tested this in a few different ways with all of them coming to the same result. If anyone has heard of this or has some tips/fixes that could help me out, it would be great. Thank you ahead of time and sorry for my bad formatting. (:

I don't think you can fix this kind of thing.

Your first mistake was buying a Razer Product.

I completely disagree with that. I came here in search of help for a product I already own and not to be told I should go buy a different one. Hopefully someone better will come along with real advice. Happy Holidays.

My help was telling you we can't help and I recommended you to buy a mouse from another producer.

Your mistake was that you bought a razer product, like TheRuke mentioned.

 

Go Steelseries. Or go home.

Looks like some people think it's OK to tell people "your product is not what I reccomend to others, you suck". That's bad practice and not helpful. 

Did you try to open your mouse up and clean around the mousewheel and the diode&photocell?

Crack it open dude, it probably is worn but it could be dust/hand grime, in which case you should be able to clear it out with an air duster or cotton buds and TIM cleaner.

Thank you to those who didn't just tell me I wasted my money, etc. I will try cleaning it and see if that helps, I wasn't sure if this was a known issue or what the situation was. I'll reply tomorrow with my results. (:
