Thanks for the video. I went in and carved out some of the surrounding plastic with a craft knife which fixed the issue. I also managed to keep the adhesive and PTFE from separating; A razor blade and heat gun made it pretty painless
Thanks for the video man! I've already send my mouse 4 times for a replacement, and it still got this issue. Since applying the grease, there's no more creaking.
Thanks for the great work! Something that I also found in my process of disassembling the mouse is that once I take out the torx screws, the squeaking is already quite largely relieved. I think the problem is twofold, one is as you pointed out the plastic-plastic friction between the post and the housing. There might also have been design and manufacturing flaws on Razer's side (like a slightly misaligned screw post and hole during CAD or something) that caused this problem to be so common yet mostly on right clicks.
Thanks bro! I've been suffering from this issue for two years and finally managed to buy all the stuff which i needed to lube these plastic parts. Really strange decision by razer
i had the same problem on the right click after using this mouse for a month. what worked for me is just push the right click down, hold it and push it a little bit towards the middle of the mouse from the side. hope this also works for you guys so you dont have to reassamble the whole mouse.
Amazing! I did it without disassembly- just let a tiny bit of lubricant oil over the area where these plastic bits are, by squirting it in from the sides
It worked for me man, thank you very much! I had a very bad experience with their customer service and was already dissapointed and not using the RVU due to the mushy clicks, now I lubed them with some Krytox 205G0 and they sound good, Thank you again!
I try showing it in the video, but the part you want to make sure you lube is where the stem coming from the mouse button rubs against the inner shell of the mouse
vi que no hay ningún comentario en español, pero si alguien lo ve, este video me sirvio muchisimo, mi mouse lo compré usado de una persona que llevaba mucho tiempo sin usarlo y el mouse estaba horrible, se sentía el clic horrible, a penas ponía el dedo encima del clic y se pulsaba, se escuchaba y se sentía mal y más hice todos los pasos, no les recomiendo usar WD-40, ya que se secará muy rápido ese lubricante, les recomiendo usar un lubricante como el que usó el chico del video y aplicarlo con un pincel delgado, ya que así tendrán un mejor resultado
If you guys just want a free and fast fix, just push down on the LMB or RMB for a little bit, pin point the issue and then it'll fix temporary until some use again just apply some pressure and don't be afraid to hold it down.
Thanks for that, I thought I had found the perfect mouse only to be disappointed by razer bad qc yet again. Will try that today. I already have silicon lube but didn't know how to apply to the mouse.
@@BrawndoQC razer is shit will try to sell it and get an XM1R instead also here's a fix that got it fixed alittle bit for me without disoldering it czcams.com/video/xXLLH3V4wk8/video.html
hello there. I would like to ask if its possible to swap g403's scroll encoder into razer viper's 8khz? and if it isnt possible could you recommend a smooth scroll wheel encoder for razer viper 8khz or ultimate? because its so stiff i dont really like it , I prefer smooth scroll wheels. thanks in advance.
Thank you so much for the video. I got a VU just a week ago and the right click felt and sound terrible. I did this mod and it fixed everything! Now I just have to wait for my tiger arcs to come in :)
@@Successful__Businessman the adhesive and the feet came off separate so I couldn't reuse it. Yeah I did remove the middle one around the sensor. Tiger arcs are pretty good.
Nice vid! Thx bro. Gotta do the same with my VU too - i'm using it a couple of months and got out of patience already hearing/feeling those sqeaks. I also have an issue with scroll wheel - it has some rattle/crackling sound while scrolling up while scroling down seems fine. Since i use scrolling a lot this is also annoying af. Do you also have issues with scroll wheel?
@@vazsup Thx. I've done it finally without actually disassembling the mouse. Since corepads are still in the way. There is a post on reddit that is explaining how to do it. (1) You need to understand where are those pins located on the back side of the buttons (gotta look at photos of disassembled mouse and back side of buttons). (2) insert toothpick between button and main body (insert it closer to the wheel and then slide it slowly towards the center of the mouse, no need to put it in very deep), by doing that you will slightly lift the button so you can see the pin you want to lube. (3) Apply the grease to the pin. I've used 10ml medical syringe, but there are also syringes used in soldering for applying flux and soldering paste - usual syringes with special dull needle - in case you afraid of putting sharp things inside your mouse. The tricky thing with medical syringe is that its needle may be too thin so it is hard to push out the grease, I suppose that needles for soldering are thicker so you can apply the grease easier. Another tricky thing with syringe is to fill it with grease - gotta try to have no air cavities inside the grease mass itself otherwise you can spray it all over while doing the job. (4) Also you can lube the axis of the wheel too - it is seen without any manipulations. (5) The amount of grease per application is about half of a match's head or even less. I hope it will help someone
Super helpful video. I know that If I RMA my mouse same thing will happen to it. Im surprised that none of the reviewers pointed it out the buttons creak. You think its possible to re-stick old mouse feet?
I really appreciate it, thank you. I won't say it's impossible, but I didn't have much luck. From my understanding the typical way to remove the feet would be to warm them up with a hair dryer and try to slide them off. The problem is, on the rvu the feet sit in a sunken in groove. Because of this when you try to push the skate it gets stuck, and the skate itself sperates from the adhesive pad that holds it on the mouse. If I were to try again I would try to get the thinnest piece of whatever (Razer blade maybe?) And try to pry the foot up extremely gently while applying heat. I had a set of these replacements www.corepad.de/en/Corepad-Skatez-Razer-Teflon-Mousefeet-Mouse-Feet-Hyperglides-Hyperglide/Corepad-Skatez-Razer-Viper-Ultimate.html on hand because I wanted to have a backup. They come in at just under $10 US and they feel pretty good imo. Plus you get two sets of them! But yeah if you could get them off intact then I don't see why you wouldn't be able to re-stick them. Good luck!
My viper mini did the same thing after 5 days since i bought it , did sent it back because of this got a replacement today and it still has the same problem but worse bruh
I have this with my razer x hyperspeed and the right click button makes a creaking noise after a few clicks not everytime ,and depends on the place I click using palm grip stoped this ,is it a problem if I leave it as it is? Cause it doesn't bother me ,or I should take it to the warranty?.The big problem is that I used it only for 3 weeks and not intensive.I am afraid that this will broke because of the creaking.
It’s kind of sad. I have had three viper ultimates, first one had creaky clicks, second one has loose buttons, third one also loose buttons. 😐 The viper ultimate is a 120$ “esports grade” mouse. Please razor, for a 120$ product, please don’t give us this terrible quality control. Even if you don’t get a defect, I hear the long term wear is horrible. Another thing that’s sad is you have the g pro wireless over here, with double clicking and poor scratchy mouse feet for the price of even higher. I’m actually buying a model o wireless, because I haven’t heard that many bad things about it. It seems like a solid mouse to me. It’s literally a DOWNGRADE, JUST SO I DON’T GET A MOUSE THAT WILL BREAK DOWN IN A MONTH. OR EVEN OUT OF THE BOX. Like come on, you know it’s bad if I’d downgrade to a technically worse mouse AND wait weeks for glorious to ship just so I don’t have to deal with the razor and Logitech bs. What other high performance, wireless mice are there to even pick from? Not a ton. Or I mean I’m definitely open to suggestions, though, so feel free to give some recommendations. Wow I didn’t even realize how much I wrote.

The creak is more annoying than anything. It should be fine
do you think silicone grease will work too cause i don't have switch lube atm
I don't see why a light coating wouldn't be okay, as long as it isn't runny.
aight thanks :)
Keyboard nerd here, I use 205 g0 for switches, and it usually lasts around 4-6 years
Can I use krytox 205g0?
Yes
my razer viper left or right mouse clicks wont go back in place
Is this an existing problem, or a problem you're having after putting the mouse back together?
was it fixed in newer batch? (mercury v2?)
I want to imagine the cyber punk and mercury have the build quality of the viper mini
would vaseline work ?
anyone knows?
it should theoratically work in the same way
where are the mouse feet
Yeah it does creak but i don't notice it cause the way I grip my mouse but sounds like a good way to fix it
