Well, after what, 13-15 years???? My Razer Diamondback limited edition plasma mouse it starting to fail slowly.

Its intermittent but getting worse, loses connection and the LEDs in start to flicker then it dies. Once I reconnect it its okay, maybe a failing capacitor or something similar, wiggling the wire etc doesnt seem to resolve it.

Anyway, literally cannot fault Razer, this thing has been fantastic over the years and lasted many, many houes of gaming, I wouldnt even like to hazard a guess at how many clicks and other than this problem, it works fine.

I'll be sad to see it go.

Any recommendations on a similar replacement? I'd buy a razer again tbh.

EDIT: Might just grab me one of these:

I went for a deathadder elite in the end as it was on a really good black friday deal. Like it so far I must admit. In fact, I think I prefer it to the old one, the side much buttons are much more accessable, the side buttons on the diamondback were not great, particularly the right side, i have no idea how you were ever supposed to use those really.

I'll see if this one lasts.
