Broken Razer DB

by slowmotion • 23 Dec 2007, 13:37 • Journals
Sup guys. I broke my razer. After about 3 years (can't remember correctly, i got it the day it appeared in europe) something got fucked and the mouse keeps loosing its signal for seconds, as if it was reconnecting for no apparent reason.

Now i know some of you guys had their mouse replaced even when you fucked it up and just played dumb. How does that work?

And second question, what razer mouse would you recommend for a casual gamer? I'm thinking of the pro 1.6 version or a krait.

Thanks in advance

It's christmas so I'm broke. And I don't think more DPI will make a big difference worth the money.

definitely NOT the krait, just go for 3g or smth.

Why not krait? I've read some good reviews of it.

hmm obivously you've never held it / played with it. It's the worst razer so far. Lachesis/Db(3g)/deathadder/copperhead are all far better, although i'd advice the 3G because you had a diamondback. (I use the DB myself aswell and there's not a lot of difference with the 3G...)

got the same some weeks ago, buy the lachesis, it's awesome and very diamond back like, had the same issue some weeks ago and i'm happy with the new mouse and the +20% rail and +10% shaft :p (Q4!!!!11 :p)

Lachesis is pretty expensive. What do you think of DB3G or Deathadder?

got the copperhead here as well for a few months until the cable broke, I'd say once a razer every razer feels the same after some time, but I cant say something about these 2 since i dont have them :<

your cable is probably broken
try and tape it.. helped for me its working fine now for another year or so :)

its probably where the cable coms out of your mouse, try and see if it disconnects when you move it a bit

slowmotion 23 Dec 2007, 13:53
Yeah, it does. Thanks for the idea, I'll open it and see, do you have any photos or anything that might help?

dont know if its possible to see.. but just make it more solid by putting tape on it, this way it wont bend so you lose your connection.

JYSK is something like IKEA, they also sell cheap furniture and house decorations. My chair cost about 180 zlotys, so yeah, the prices match :D

had the same problem with my old db, fortunately it was within the 2 years warranty :)

take habu/deathadder/lachesis, go in a shop and take which feels best in your hands.

disassemble the mouse, cut few to ten centimeters of cord and it will work, also you could clean it after 3 years inside, will be like new!

I had the Pro 1.6 mouse for about 4 months until it broke, I'd say it was the best mouse I've had, even though it doesn't last for long. The MX518 is kind of clumpy but it's still nice, and lasts for ages.
