Logitech G7

NeverWinter · 20 Jan 2009 at 07:52

So I have a Logitech G7 and it seems the batteries are dying out on me.

My question is this; Does anyone know of another mouse that has 2 battery packs and charger (and is also a decent mouse)?

Cheers.

Maybe, but it's also a discontinued product so they might get a bit anal.

My brothers G7 died so I took his 2 batteries and now have 4

I was thinking of buying another from auction. But if there is a better mouse with the same style of battery that'd be even better -

I also have a Logitech G7 which has dying batteries, Ive decided to buy a Razer Copperhead to replace it

I know it increases cost but more companies should supply 2 interchangeable batteries with these wireless mice.

Only discontinued in Europe, pretty sure logitech will supply replacement batteries at a cost.

I recently RMA'd my G7 (about 2.5 years old) due to the dying batteries and "double click" problems.

Had a quick and excellent response from Logitech. They sent me a G9 replacement free of charge almost straight away.

I too miss the G7, but as I didn't pay anything for the G9 it'll do for now.

Yea I would also recommend just droping an email to them, their customer services are awesome, many people have posted saying how they just simply sent replacement parts or a new product

Actually they didn't! Was expecting that based on the posts i'd read on here. But after confirming the fault via the tickets I sent all they requested was a photograph of the mouse (in one piece) with a RMA code before sending me a replacement. After the replacement had arrived they asked me to send on my USB receiver for the mouse - I actually did this as I'd received such good service but suppose could have kept hold of a half-working G7 if i'd wanted.
