I stand by my previous suggestion that this thread should be closed to new postings (but not removed for obvious reasons of relevant content). But of late, much of what is posted here on this thread has nothing to do with the original intent of thread, namely "Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord(s)?"
There are other ways where those adversely affected by this one manufacturer can communicate together about these issues. I encourage the moderators to offer a pathway for that purpose.
The moderators did not delete the other relevant thread that is sort of on topic with the possible future of these products. I erred to suggest otherwise. So maybe much of what is discussed here can be picked up there.
Just my two cents worth and a gentle suggestion to the powers that be.
