Pieps is this morning announcing a “Voluntary Product Correction Program” in Europe. This will be followed up by a voluntary recall in the US.

NOTE: this is a harness replacement only

Why lame? This solves the problem by augmenting the useless lock mechanism and keeps functional electronics out of landfills. What's the downside? Minor pain to store it outside the harness?Quote:

I already got replacements for mine but I would have been happy with this solution.

that’s my question too...
BD even makes pants with a special Pieps pocket
It looks like the "hip belt" is very minimal, if the shoulder harness could be easily removed then make the entire hard case can go into the pocket with the beacon. Not elegant but better than trashing an otherwise useful device.
i cant possibly be the first one
to think of this?

You don't show this to your touring partners, do you?Quote:

I still have a 40% off code for Mammut if anyone is still looking for something different.
I still use the new DSP Pro, but also Barryvox and BCA T4.
If i toured more, i'd take you up on the code offer -- very generous! i hope someone takes you up on it
the dsp replacements i got will be sufficient for me given the low miles they will see -- i'm not abusing the switches
for anyone putting heavy miles on their units, i agree the harness conversion is another admission of poor engineering on the switch. We'll see a new switch/unit redesign soon, i imagine.
the new DSP switch is better than the old one
but yeah I’ll bet it gets a total redesign soon
.
better?
