Mattos Evos?

[oxytousc]

This is probably more for the Americans on here, but has anyone else had massive failures with their Mattos evos? I’m finding they’re pretty terrible. Super sensitive, especially to moisture. And 1000x more sensitive than any bullets I’ve worked with. I’m greasing them and doing all I know to displace water and they still seem to be problematic. Anyone else with similar problems?

Haven't bought any or know exactly what they are. At quick glance looks like a poor design like some of the earlier square nodes.

Yea. I’ve bought a few. This is my second year with them and the failure rate is absurd. I’ve lost 8-12 strings on a 27 string tree.

Seems like more and more issues with pixels from all vendors lately. I replace a few each year and my display isn't small, all of mine were purchased pre Covid 2020

Yea. I’d agree with that. I’ve had WAY more failures this year. I purchased most of my stuff from Ray Wu directly and he’s been good about replacements. But I’ve had to ask for way more replacements than ever before. Same with controllers. The Kulp’s are rock solid, but I’m having issues with Genius 32s.
