Wireless receiver dongles for the Logitech MX Revolution mouse are hard to find.
In case it gets broken or lost, can I use another type of receiver with this mouse?
1 Answer
The MX Revolution has two editions: 06 and 07.
Both come with their own receiver and these are not cross compatible -- even though they look nearly identical. See Logitech's help page about this.
The MX Revolution is not a 'Unifying' device so it can not be paired with the tiny Logitech Unifying wireless adapter.
However, I've had some luck with an 07 mouse which could be paired with a wireless adapter from an MX 1100 mouse.
So in summary:
The
07edition (part number810-000422) is compatible with MX Revolution receivers810-000412or810-000826But
07can also be paired with with MX 1100 receiver810-000824.The
06edition (part number831869-0000) is compatible with its native receiver831735-1000.
There may be other combinations that work too.
The receivers don't support multiple devices, so they can only be paired with one device at a time.
