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
there’s 2 problems here.
The first is that there’s all kinds of nooks and crannies that hold liquid in. Getting it dry again is problematic, without opening it up. IPA is less problematic than, say, tap water, but still problematic.
The other is that the G703 has a rechargeable battery that can’t be removed without opening it up. At which point you might as well just clean out the mouse wheel’s encoder or replace it.
