Title: Some Mandarin help please? (HPE 87 Mk2)
Post by: dante on Sat, 09 November 2013, 23:00:34

Can someone translate if this is a revision?  I also see "POM" listed - is this the replacement for the ABS caps?

Thanks  ;D

from the pictures... even if it's pom engraved, it's still white goop in-filled.. which means the white part will turn grey over time.. or yellowy gray...   so... the POM really isn't the issue here.. yes it may be slightly better than abs, but in this case... the laser engrave is still not durable in terms of looking sharp..
