Brother, my left-hand Deathadder started double-clicking a while back. Its very hard to find those specifically so I bought some new switches, soldered them on and it's like new now. So happy I got my favourite mouse back, and it was easier than I thought.

I went back to use my old deathadder 3.5g and the shape is perfect for my palm grip, I wanted something wireless with that shape so I went for the deathadder v3 pro the shape is close enough to feel confortable

Razer Deathadder 3.5G with infrared sensor. I loved the shape of the older DA but the sensor would constantly spin out on me during fast movements.

https://www.pcgamer.com/the-best-left-handed-mouse-for-gaming-for-2019/ alright, I was thinking about the left hand edition of the deathadder, but apparently that was a few generations ago haha; shows how old I am

At least the previous version of the viper was truly ambidextrous... I felt really disappointed when I saw that the newest version had thumb buttons only on the left side. The new Cobra family is the same, only for right handed. Deathadder had a left handed version (wired) years ago, now it's only right handed. The only true left handed option is the Naga wired, which is an objectively inferior version compared to the right handed ones.

I got my first Deathadder in 2009. I had two of the original model, one 3.5 and one 4G. In 2015, I bought a Zowie EC that I've been using near daily for the past decade.

After some advice about computer mice you can use in the left hand. I used to have the Razor Death Adder when it was available, but they discontinued it. I struck lucky with a cheap ambidextrous mouse, but that has given up the ghost, I bought what was advertised as an ambidextrous mouse, but while it has the buttons on both sides, it doesn't feel even in the hand (it is far more comfortable in the right than the left so no good for me), and an hour of use and my wrist is aching. The buttons and scroll wheel are also incredibly clunky when used. So looks like that is going to be consigned to the spare. I do game but not competitively and mostly older games. I prefer a wired mouse as batteries have a horrible habit of going at the most inconvenient time I only want a couple of thumb buttons on the right hand side so the Razor Naga is out. I really don't want to spend a fortune £100 is about my maximum unless one come highly recommended. I did find Corsair M75 Wired RGB Lightweight FPS Gaming Mouse – 26,000 DPI – Swappable Side Buttons – PC – Black for £50 on Amazon, and wondered if anyone had tried it and what they thought of it

UPDATE After some more digging, and deciding I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend £50 on a mouse I wasn't sure I'd like, I realised that three quarters of the mice I'd had had all be Logitech, so I checked those out. I've ended up with a Logitech G PRO 2 LIGHTSPEED Wireless, Right- or Left-Handed Mouse with up to 4 Customisable and Switchable Magnetic Side Buttons, 44K DPI Sensor, USB-C Charging, for PC/Mac - Black At £90 it was the top end of my price range, and it is wireless, but it feels wonderful in my hand. It has the advantage that it comes with spare plates and buttons so you can change the side buttons to make it a truly left handed mouse. If you can cope with buttons on both sides you could have all four as programmable (I think). I used to have one that had the four buttons and every so often my ring finger would catch one I didn't want it to, so a flat plat on that side is a big improvement. If you are looking for a left handed mouse, it is well worth considering.
