Signalrgb support for portronics hydra 10 keyboard and phillips wiz bulb

Just a 400 rs bulb with signalrgb. 🤣🤣

Also, it was shocking that hydra 10 worked with it natively that too wirelessly. Apparently, it's not the case with every unit.

Razer Barracuda X hinge broke within 6 months – confusing RMA/replacement experience in India

Wanted to share my experience with the Razer Barracuda X (2022) and see if others have faced something similar. My headset developed a hinge/structural crack within around 6 months of normal use. No drops or misuse. After searching online, I found many similar reports involving the Barracuda lineup and even some BlackShark models. I raised an RMA through acro rma india on 20 April. To their credit, they acknowledged it as a “known issue” and accepted the warranty claim. However, the original Barracuda X (2022) has apparently been out of stock for months now. Initially, they told me that stock will arrive in first week of may. Later, I was told that the same model is expected to be back in stock by the end of this month.

then  I was offered only wired replacements:

- Razer BlackShark V2 X Xbox Licensed

- Razer BlackShark V2 X PlayStation

these were clearly lower-tier wired headsets compared to the original wireless Barracuda X, so i denied.

Later, I was offered a Razer Barracuda X Chroma replacement, but only if I paid an additional ₹1500. My concern is that the Chroma still appears to use a very similar hinge/structural design, while also removing AUX input support that existed on the original Barracuda X (2022).

So the situation effectively became:

  • accept a lower-tier wired downgrade without any price adjustment/refund OR
  • pay an additional ₹1500 for the newer wireless option OR
  • continue waiting potentially ~40 days from the original RMA date for stock availability

As a customer, I find these resolution choices difficult to justify, especially considering the issue was already acknowledged as a known defect within warranty.

I’ve currently requested either:

  1. A committed timeline for original replacement stock

    OR

  2. A no-cost Chroma replacement if delays continue further

Just wanted to ask:

- Have others here faced similar hinge issues with Barracuda / Barracuda X?

- Does the Barracuda X Chroma actually improve durability in practice?

Would appreciate hearing other experiences.
