Ah darn. I had a Razer Deathadder from 2009 and the mouse wheel only just this year broke on me - almost a 15 year run. I’ve had two Razer deathadders on my 2nd pc - one essential iirc and one a premium version - and they both end up with this switch issue where one mouse click is registered as multiple clicks constantly. I’ve read that it’s an issue caused by static. Does this procedure correct the issue? Also is there a mouse out there that doesn’t have these issues, that can be recommended?
@RetroRepairYT19 күн бұрын
This would for sure fix your problem. I didnt know it was caused by static. I am unsure if there is a mouse out there that does not have this issue. Majority of all mise have switches in them

@@RetroRepairYT never had this switch issue with my old deathadder I bought back in 2009, 15 years perfect run until whatever was holding the mouse wheel up broke.

I got you, to understand which replacement thumbsticks you need, navigate to Settings → System → Steam Deck Controller ID. If the Controller ID starts with “MEDA”, that device uses a Type A thumbstick, then this joystick is perfect for you. If the Controller ID starts with “MHDA”, that device uses a Type B thumbstick.

How would one fix a rumble feature that no longer works, but the motor, when applied to external power, does work?
@RetroRepairYT2 ай бұрын
I would suggest reflowing the chips around the power of the rumble. You sound like you have a cold solder joint on one of them, hopefully. If not then it could be a corroded trace or a chip may have gone bad. Chasing the issue past reflowing can be a long rabbit hole. Not to hurt your out look. Just covering all perspectives.

I really do think your fine on that one. Now a days your game saves are held on a chip without a battery so they are safe.

Just curious.... why are there 2 boards to solder? Why wouldn't KunaiGC just have 1 board to be soldered onto IPL IC? That'd be alot quicker and less prone to bad soldering... unless I'm missing something. Good presentation and commentary. Thanks
@RetroRepairYT5 ай бұрын
That is a good question. I would have to go by speculation on this for if I knew the creators I would ask. But my speculation is. When you create a board like the kunai GC it has multiple layers in it for different traces leading to the IC or other components such as the memory on the board things like that. So if we think about that you can kind of see it in your mind as like a highway stacked on another highway with different lanes. And there could be more lanes stacked on top of those lanes. Personally I'm not sure because I do not have access to the CAD files or Gerber files. Now let's talk about the quick solder board. This specifically only has one job and it's to go from top to bottom of that board on the cascillated parts and lead out to solder pads. In the manufacturing process the machines can only do what their inputted at for a bulk production run. Which means the kunai GC is most likely made multiple at once on one consistent board and then it's cut to separate the individual kunai GCs to make it a product. So really they can't switch board layered specifications when they're making a huge PCB wafer of many kunai gcs So they would have to make another huge board of many quick soccer boards on it with those specifications of layers. Again this is only speculation but highly plausible from this thought process. And it's done like this because it's the cheapest way to manufacture in batch form. Now I know I just wrote you a book and I am sorry. But I really do hope that it made sense.
