    No harm to my Yeti glasses, but I'll put a bullet, or better yet a field point, through my Digi Q II.
     

    What a worthless POS.
    Talk about triggered.
    @Focker This came back in the mail yesterday from warranty. I wish I could say it was the first time I had to send it in for warranty work.... 


    Sorry to hear this.  Good to see they at least stepped up.

    Staci gave me this BGE unit, she used it a couple of times, and it went tits up.
    Similar story. My friend bought the PartyQ and maybe used it a handful of times. I bought my friends Big Steel Keg for super cheap and he threw in the PartyQ controller with it. I noticed the up button on the controller didn't work when trying to use it for the first time. I sent the PartyQ in for warranty work and the warranty department blamed my friend and said it was "water damaged". I think it was a bunch of BS. I had to pay $50 for replacement parts. Which they didn't even attempt to fix but rather sent me a whole new unit. (I knew where it had little marks or light scratches on the case beforehand) So $50 for a new controller wasn't terrible but I still call BS on water damage.

    I've maybe used it 2-3 times before heading back in for more warranty work this go around. Somehow the fan went haywire. I took the fan apart to visually see what I thought I heard when the fan was sputtering. It says plain as day under warranty that any tampering to the controller automatically expires your warranty. I wrote a note to the warranty department in the box telling them I took the controller apart and explained what I saw and what probably needed to get replaced. I didn't hear a word for 2 weeks after sending the package. I had to check tracking on the shipment to make sure BBQ Guru even received it. Out of nowhere it showed back up on my steps yesterday. It came back in working condition! I'm glad they didn't try to play the blame game and have any issue with me taking it apart. This time it only cost me $9 in shipping. My friends warranty might have even been out of warranty at this point of time. So I do give them a thumbs up this go around. 

    Hoping for the best from here on out but my odds probably aren't in my favor 
    I hope so too brother.

    The Netflix series "Black Mirror" has an episode called "Nosedive" which has a similar theme as this Chinese effort.

    This is where all those "Likes" on posts here will really pay off in the future. :)

    Sounds like most, if not all, of this alleged schenanigans occured during the Obama administration.  Guess Barack didn’t run such a tight ship.  No surprise there.  BO did have an Iranian running the whole show.

    Instead of running the VA the good doctor may well be interacting with the DEA soon. :)

    Like I said earlier, dude needs to retire as an admiral while he still can.

    The difference is that Obama would’ve never nominated someone like this to head up the VA.

    Yup Johnny you’re right.  He picked the same blah, blah, blah nominees while Vets continued to die on the waiting list.   Nice work.  Layup!

    The problems with the VA transcend any particular President. Blame Congress.

    Only the lesser sentence- sinking as opposed to the total Buffalo elimination.

    I'm sure a drunk/drug dealer with zero management experience would of course fix all of that.   Maybe next Trump will ask some homeless guy he meets on the street to head it up!   Talk about a layup.
