my vx revolution is dead :(

I bought my vx revolution 4 month ago, had to change the battery yesterday and it goes dead after changing the battery,I am so disapointed ,I liked it very much

 

sorry to hear that

 

Doesn't it have a 1 year warranty?

 

I would definitely contact Logitech - I hear they have a great warranty department.

 

I know the logitech gaming mice have a 3 year warranty. Logitech makes great products sorry you got a dud. Justin contact them.

 

Sorry to hear about this. Just about every one of my logitech products has to be replaced every 6-8 months or so (I'm on my 3rd keyboard, need a 4th, 2nd mouse that stops working 5 times a week until I shake it around)...can't say I'm going to be purchasing anything from them in the near future unless it looks to be very very very well built.

 

As others have said, definitely call them. Sitting next to my laptop is my over 5 year old logitech mouse. They make good stuff, this shouldn't have happened.

 

I have a 3 year warranty thank god,but I have to go to there repair center as they don't have much in Egypt,I am only so frustrated that It broke so easly ,I didn't even drop it.My friends are loughing at me as my top notch mouse broke while the 15$ mice just kept going for over a year.Nothing is perfect

 

You must be abusing your equipments ;-). We have 4 or 5 set of logitech wireless keyboard and mouse in the office and most are over 5 years old and none have ever failed.

 

yeah all of the logitech products i own are still going strong with the exception of my g7 which started acting up for some reason. anyway a free g9 replaced it so i'm happy with them.

 

sorry to hear about that! if only everyones electronics worked like they should for a long time! my Logitech cordless MX keyboard and mouse is still going strong after 3 years of use. well actually the mouse doesn't charge on the charging/receiver base anymore but thats about it!

 

I don't think so. Every one of my other 'stuffs' work fine and have continue to work.

 

I might have missed something, or just mis-read it. But did you just say that you replaced the battery and now it is dead? Are you sure you did not put a bad battery in it? Or put it in upside down?

 

there were new ,I thought I was going nuts,I didin't know that changing the batteries can cause anything to break,I even bought 3 diffrent battery types to try them but no luck.

 

Couldnt u just contact logitech then mail it to them?

 

sorry for that kworld, and i'm also sorry that i'll ask you about one thread you've posted and closed about the taxes in Egypt if you got your laptop imported .. what did you do about that... a friend will send me a brand new one from the states am worry if i've to pay load of money for taxes....

sorry sending this reply here, there's no other way to contact you i hope to hear your reply as soon as possible... thank you

 

That sucks kworld, I have a vx also and I broke the charger (don't ask). I remember seeing a replacement charger online, but I can't seem to find it. Good luck with yours though.

 

My VX Revolution free-spin just stopped spinning, it only spins about 1/4 of a second now, before it used to spin about 20 seconds straight. Sucks I cant get help on this from Logitech since I bought it off eBay...

 

Are you sure that you didn't put the battery in the wrong way? Have you tried orienting the battery the other way? It seems very weird for something to die after changing its battery. My Logitech VX Revolution has been going strong for over a year now. I once changed the battery and put it in incorrectly and the mouse didn't work until I found out my mistake. Also, I have had problems with cheap batteries such as carbon zinc batteries that were too short and wouldn't make good contact, causing the mouse to appear dead. I have no problems with Energizer, Duracell or Rayovac batteries. The battery's (+) terminal should be the end closest to the opening of the battery access cover.

It might not be broken.

Have you tried repairing it with the receiver?
