I’ve noticed that too; in my oppinion, for the money you put into them, they’re really poorly made. I love their ruggedness, but can’t stand the fact that you can’t use the clip they come with without it tearing the casing to shreds. I’ve had 3 of them, and it either chipped the metal part of the casing, or shredded the rubber around the outside, or both. When it came to the first one I got, repeated use of the clip ground the metal on one side to the point that when I put it into the clip one afternoon, I heard this sound like sand moving around under someone’s shoes, so I took it out, and and part of the side of it looked like someone who’d had a cavity, or something weird like that. > On Mar 16, 2016, at 7:14 AM, Daniel Miller <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi.
