You'd think the wholesale channel would be stocked 'before' the public push.

Wow, that was quick. These things are coming out of the woodworks! Definitely not up to the Sense feature set.

What particular ergo is missing @stark1?

I did go in to figure out how to fix the charge port and although it can be off a bit, it is trapped in the housing so it shouldn't wander far. I don't see how it could 'get lost' with how the board is installed. If the plug is below the hole, try pushing on the battery to move or compress...

Peeps love getting stuff that works right off the bat. Orion suffered a similar fate with it's USB-C offering. It too had tech limitations. $5 for a charger is a steal @Pipes . I'm glad to have found two that work.

:leaf: :rockon: @stark1 - I can see a bottom cover upgrade to add a meter if you really want one. The battery has a cord. The little stick battery meters fit inside. Add a pigtail to the meter to plug it into the available battery leads and you have a battery meter safely kept in the battery...

You could possibly slip a dynamag in there for that purpose @stark1 Good thinking. I've been putting the tape to the test and it is working great.

HotShot is definitely a formattable entry onto the portable IH market and here in time to fill a niche. The case is a lot more than Orion. The HotShot has heft and a solid feel when you pick it up. Battery access and a port cover are features for users. The feel of the aluminum side plates...

Return Hell!

Got the HotShot today and this was easy! Off to find a charger and look what I found - Do with this what you will. I don't know what it belonged to. I know the Lenovo variable voltage just shuts down. Charge was fast and things got warm - I knew things were busy inside and that is a...

Sooner than you think @quasars25

Found another unlikely candidate blank floating around. This came out nicely with a heart-line well exposed;

Woody XXL convertible to XL.

@Willawonkysweet - Use the module as a space-claim and make sure the case of choice has a way of housing the physical bits; say orient the coil and place the module - know that you can connect the coil's leads to the module to the circuit board in your layout. Account for lights and extra...

Cool - thank @Pipes . I'll keep an eye on that.

Why are we aiming for 2-amp chargers? Seems a slow 1/2 amp charger would eventually charge the cells. Basically 2-1/2 watts instead of 10 watts. Overnight?

Mooch's review is spot on. I never doubted most of these are 'branded' from a sole source. The fine print on eFest, for instance, does say thatb the true capacity is 1,100mah and they float right about there in my tests. I use the Opus BC-3100. But I also torchure these cells and they are...

I am using an Emco Unimat 3 which I think qualifies as jewel's lathe. I torture myself to come up with these pieces. Once I get a good core drilled through the stock, I can prep the blank for the lathe. I don't have a magic bullet for ensuring a centered core in smaller blanks. To make thing...

Three qualified cells - KeepPower, Efest, and Vapcell high capacity. You want 10 amp continuous if possible but no less than 9. Be sure to buy genuine cells. I get my Efest here and they have been genuine confirmed with tests and use - LINK

USPS is changing its colours @Vapemat - There is no hiding the intent of an IH. Rules need clarity for Fluxer Heaters to move forward. Today is the day new laws takes effect. Rules are still being written for the USPS but the law is in force today. We are basically guilty by association...
