One of the things I hate most about doing these reviews is when I have a good experience with a device and you do not. Keep in mind that in my reviews, I can only report on my personal experience with a device.
I’ve heard and seen enough regarding this device, so I took it upon myself to issue a warning even with the overall thumbs up it received in the video.
I can’t speak to what’s causing the melt-down of this device, but with regulated devices, no matter HOW you use them OR charge them, they should not melt down. They should have the built in safety required to keep you safe and prevent issues like this from happening.
I’m now getting reports that these are getting hot on their own without firing, just sitting idle.
Here are some of the photos I’ve seen:
These photos just added. From the user:
Dead Cloupor Mini after burning. Not in USB charge at that time, just sit on a table on in standby mode! Never charge it on USB port. It just burn on the table, not is use when it’s happened! (sorry for the bad English)
I did have some conversation with Cloupor and I wasn’t exactly thrilled with the response:
Hi Phill ,
firstly, we are so sorry to hear the melted issue . But , it’s very very rare rate happened in mini device .As the state we collect until today , we shipped out more than 100 thousand out , only about 40-50pcs with melted issue….
His email goes on, but IMHO, not matter how small the percentage, NO pieces should be melting. I would consider this a pretty major defect.
Recalls are costly and ugly, but in this case, it may very well be warranted.
Buy, use, and charge these at your own risk!
This post will be placed with the review here on TasteYourJuice and a warning placed in the description of the video itself. I know that Cloupor has my review listed on their site and I’m asking it be removed.
