Beware of metal shavings for tools and equipment

I received the package a few weeks ago. The product looked very nice and solid. Days passed and I began preparing to learn how the device worked. I unscrewed the end to remove the Schrader valve. As I unscrewed and removed the part, I noticed a speck of dirt on the black o-ring on the other end of the unit. I shook it off, noting its color at the same time - the same dirty pink as the device's body. I decided to blow in and at the same time clasped my palm on one end. I caught another piece - bigger and again the same color. I dropped this junk on the floor of my car and couldn't move it. I feel in my stomach that both were metal filings. If they hit my mini split, who knows what damage they could do. I am considering completely disassembling the device to ensure it is usable. I only gave it two stars because it looks like real solid hardware and I hope it will work properly once I know it has no chips. If you are considering a purchase, do a full inspection for metal shavings.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Mostly ok but...
