I'm talking about one click will cause the mouse to register the movement as rapid double click, I tried cleaning the mouse but is just band-aid solution and will only last an extra week before reverting to double-clicking issue.

I had:


  • Logitech G300s
    Cooler Master CM Storm Mizar
    Microsoft H3S-00002 Sculpt Comfort Mouse
    Razer DeathAdder

I don't mind shilling extra but as long as last at least 2 years without double-clicking issue

PS: I'm not from the US I can't just order the switches itself from ebay, with international shipping + tariffs + sales tax might as well buy a new mouse
 
I've got a G300s that has lasted 3 years now with no issues. Razer DeathAdders are quality mice as well with my friend using one for years, and usually Microsoft mice are pretty good too... are you sure that you aren't just abnormally hard on mice? I mean if you can kill any of the listed mice, you can kill any mouse. You might just want to budget for mouse replacements every so often. Find one that you like and keep buying them until the model is replaced. I had to do that with ball mice. Paper dust would just get in there and gum up the works and I'd be cleaning them monthly and replacing them every 8-12 months.
 


My usage is normal, but I'm from Egypt either that companies send their failed QA products to Egypt knowing that warranties are practically useless here or hot weather and humidity affect the mouse switch.

 
One of my older mice starting acting up like that after some years of use, and I was able to extend its life by simply opening the shell of the mouse and exercising the switch with a tiny screwdriver, pressing the switch trigger in a bit further than the mouse button normally would. There is a better way of re-adjusting the spring tension though, but it involves opening up the switch. You can find a tutorial here...

...and a video showing the process here...

Just keep in mind that these are tiny components you'll be working with, and try not to lose any parts.

Edit: There's another tutorial linked from that video page, though I haven't read through it in detail...

I used the Logitech G600 for years. I didn't care at all for all the MMORPG buttons on the side of it, I just liked how big the mouse was & how it felt. After about 2 - 3 years , it eventually starting having issues with the left-click not responding(opened it up and cleaned it out, helped temporarily). Have been using the G502 now for some time and so far it's working just fine.
