I've cleaned mine and got the hang of it ok. It definitely helped but the problem ones still give occasional jams. I'm kind of getting to think they have a use by date. I would be careful buying used...

I do all my load testing at 50m. I walk there and back. 3 hrs of it easily gives me my 10k steps for the day. Besides, that's what I've got in the way of range availability. I am inclined to...

Yes I answered that far too fast. You're quite correct. I'll put it down to cooking dinner, mixing G&T for the neighbours, trying to converse intelligently and read/relpy to your post. Lucky I wasn't...

243 this one. Just getting to know it. Have not had the 223 out yet. Soon. The 223 has a short pull and I need to address that.
