Reviews on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Kanguru-Flash-Physical-Protect-switch/product-reviews/B008OGNM8E/ref=dpx_acr_rat_t2_txt?showViewpoints=1 I saw a similar mix of good plus failures two other places, but I can't come up with them at the moment. All of them indicated either failure out-of-the-box or after a few months. > PS I'm still slightly miffed that an American company is not only using > our best-known national animal for its logo, but spells it the same way > as a minorly famous Aussie cult band of the '70s and '80s .. moreover a > band who would, I assure you, have had nothing to do with your DHS! :) Doesn't the whole world already know Americans under 45 can't spell? No one I respect wants much to do with DHS either. Or the CIA. They need to have a choke-chain put on and pulled tight. Plus a shock collar. Gary
