Mx518 Finally Died

Sad day today, my Mx518 had finally gone to mouse heaven! Got some awful Lenovo muse now as a backup, but the just resting my fingers on the buttons makes them click constantly, very annoying!

So on the lookout for a replacement sharpish. I have quite big hands so prefer the bigger mice. Not too bothered about thousands of buttons

I've been looking at these, anything else to consider? I don't want a Razer mouse, bought one last year and felt it was absolutely horrific!

I've had it since about 2005, I know they're good but I doubt they're that good

I have actually managed to fix it. Took it apart and found a broken wire

So it's working again now

Yeah I cleaned it all out while I was at it.

Proper ***** fix, twisted the wires together and selotape round them

It'll do for now, I will look at a new mouse eventually though!

I have no idea if it had a weight in it to be honest!

The serial number has worn off it so not gonna have much luck with logitech I don't think!

My sellotaped wires are still holding up
