I noticed that my mouse wheel when scrolling up would sometimes scroll down instead (and vice versa). I figured it’s probably because there is some dirt and grime inside the mouse wheel casing that’s somehow interfering with the sensor.
How can I clean it without taking the mouse apart? I guess I could fill it with some isopropyl alcohol and wait a bit to shake it out or something but I don’t know how well that would work and I don’t want to make it worse obviously.
Does anyone have a better idea maybe? It’s a Logitech G703 Lightspeed
If you flip the mouse over you should see a circular piece of plastic. Rotate this and it should be able to pop out, at which point the ball will also fall out. Inside you will see a pair of rollers and a wheel, all of which may have gunk on them. Clean off the gunk and make sure they spin properly. Replace the ball, the circular plastic, and then rotate the plastic to lock the mechanism.
What year is it
I knew a guy in highschool that liked to steal the balls from the mice as a practical joke. he wasn’t very creative in his practical jokes.
They thought they solved the problem when they switched from apple’s hockey pucks to the optical twinkies.
Apparently he was clever enough. electrical tape.
I highly suggesting overcooking a new hard boiled egg and using the yolk from that rather than just replacing the same overboiled egg yolk from before.
