Well not really, just a wee bit because I emailed Optrel yesterday to ask whether the silicon cover on the grind knob was really needed as mine has popped off a few times.
The reply said no, not really, was just at the request of big customer from the USA that they added it. They said they never used to have them and not a problem in 15 years.
Anyway that is not why I am slightly annoyed, this is the reason. They told me about a new lid and I think I would have loved it, seems to have the advantage of the Vega View with the 2.5 light shade, the similar design lens as the Weld Cap and the lovely Auto function of the E684, sounds perfect to me
