RAZER ATHERIS TERRIBLE BATTERY LIFE

Hello,

I generally had good experience with Razer products in the past. I bought a Razer Atheris which is perfectly ergonomic for my hand. I play shooter games a lot but I’m not happy with Atheris’ battery consumption.

 

2x AA Duracell batteries last only a week or so before it starts to drop the connection mid-play.  It is unaccaptable my character in game looking to his feet while getting mag-dumped. I can not give you exact hours but nonetheless 2xAA batteries a week is a hole in my pocket.

 

Is there a firmware update or something for this? If not, can I RMA or get a replacement unit?

Thanks in advance.

Efe

https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/13048/~/razer-atheris-firmware-updater-%7C-rz01-02170 this is the latest firmware for Atheris.

I’d also try a different batch of batteries or even different battery company, to reject problem with battery batch. You’re using it via USB dongle, not bluetooth? Right?
