      The actual device in this is 40-50$, 5-10$ for the battery, 5$ for the antenna, and if you (or someone you know) has a 3D printer the case is <5$.

      I usually just get some cheap helteks (last I checked 2 for less than 50?) when people first start out. Then get the other stuff later.

        Yeah. Price is mostly Muzi’s 3D printed case.

        I actually bought a cheaper Muzi case from Etzy. Never arrived, tried to use Etzy’s policy to get my money back. Seller was able to somehow veto it. Never got my money back, never got my piece of plastic.

        Etzy and Muzi suck and never using those again.

            Don’t remember, what it was called, but yes. Etzy asked to start a “process” and that was the only thing I could do. Seller added a comment, that if I order a another one, he/she will cancel the first one. Didn’t see any buttons to move forward or reject. Since the product was only about 20 euros, my answer was “fuck no”. Never returned.
