Agree. Don’t forget to stock up on real fire extinguishers. My buddy recently was able to save big scratch buying an off brand charger to charge his off brand cells for his vape thinggy. Sucks when the things light up your room at midnight when you are sleeping and you almost cook. 3 fire extinguishers was the number for him, but it was nip and tuck when the smoke is so thick you will die if you breath it in. (drop to the floor for a breath was his advice).
Besides, you’re saving $10 on the cord, whats the worst that will happen? I’m with you brother, go for it. But I want to see the “after” photos too:-) Buddy’s shots of a burned out bed and room looked pretty f**ing knarly. Dudes in great shape, and keeps an extinguisher right by his bed, which started the process and then he went through 2 more, or he likely wouldn’t have made it.
Bummer. I ordered those too. Guess I'll check the thermal paste situation before deciding whether or not to return. Thank you for reporting that dthrckt.
This turned out to be even better than I expected. The casing is a nicely anodized aluminum alloy. Magnetic everything—the docking of the tool bit module, docking of tool bits at the tip, and attachment of bits to the spindle. Nice heft. Quality item. VERY impressed! And the turquoise color? Magnificent. I’d love a flashlight in this color. NOTE: as of this posting, turquoise is back to normal price but red and slate gray are 25% off. Unfortunately, looks like the VIPON code no longer works… for the moment.
I used mine a couple times and love it so far, the rear bearing is surprisingly smooth. Everything is magnetized. It’s a tad thick for precision work but works well for 90% of the tasks out there.
