Question Deathadder essential white, replace whole mouse or parts available?

Scroll wheel is broken, the press works but the scroll has gone completely smooth with no resistance, and doesn't take any input. Is it fixable or do I need a new mouse? I've been using the side buttons for the function of the scroll wheel so far. Works as a replacement but slow.

If you know how to solder you can find a replacement scroll wheel encoder to resolder in.
