can a mouse overheat/die?

[Fork Included]

i have an old razer deathadder, like really old, used and abused.

the last 3 days when I play FPS games after some time I start getting input lag/loss. Most noticeable with full-auto weapons where I hold down the button and the gun farts out 2-4 shots and then stops, then shoots another shot, or doesn't shoot again unless I tap it.

is my mouse dead? never in my life had I experienced something like this. Don't really feel like buying a new one :/

Idk

It's common for the button mechanism to fail and the usual cause is double-click on single or plain old stuck. It's a common occurrence and plagued the best mouse every made, Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical/Explorer. You could de-solder the old switch and replace it with 1 of the many in the mouse itself or buying a new one. Another issue could be a cold solder joint (dull looking or broken) and you would need to re-solder it preferably using flux.

I never personally used a DeathAdder but I have a Mamba collecting dust which I think a relative left here and the lithium battery is bulging which usually a sign it's going to blow. I'm not willing to plug it in and find out.

I have an affinity for the Microsoft design and my current slew of mice have been from Zowie; EC1 currently. Their problem is the rubber coating they use dries and cracks. Maybe you're suppose to use mink oil to preserve it... Anyway, no mouse lasts for ever and rest assured today you can avoid cleaning the ball on a daily/weekly basis.

EDIT: A unknown mouse and probably the best palm grip gaming mouse (by design) is the HandShoe mouse because it prevents any drag by your hand touching the mouse pad with the benefit of keeping your mouse pad clean and wear free from the oils of your hand.

its a great mouse, but the mouse feet suck ass, it peels and dust gets sucked under them.

Are you really asking this question?

First off, Razr products are worse quality than Joe Fresh clothing from Real Canadian [Canadian my asshole] Superstore. Second, you admitted it's old and abused lol

Or maybe he's retarded.

Are you sure it isn't user error?

Sounds like the common double click issue. http://zalbee.intricus.net/2014/02/how-i-fixed-my-logitech-g500-mouse/ if you dare. I fixed my G5 couple weeks ago~ man was it a pain in the ass but it was WORTH IT~.

I got the g600 in white. Only problem is that the mouse wheel is to sensitive and u can accidentally hit it at first. Other than that, sick
