9v charging port

I have seen that now that you mention it. But the material is secured down and won't move. They just slapped it in the ipv4 and didn't take much for precautions

Could this possible be what lead to production stop and revisions in the IPV4S beyond TC?
If so, they obviously listened and assessed the design as needing improvement.

After almost 45 years in industry, I tend to look at minor flaws or overlooked possible problems as a part of a typical base line for production. We on the other hand have time to pick things apart and find where improvement would make a product much better.
Manufacturers must set reasonable deadlines which while putting pressure on designers and QC is almost a mandate to stay on track in any competitive market.

I goess I just realize it is easy for us to judge using Hind sight:
IF only they Had...
Why did/didn't they...
What idiot thought....
etc.
Our 1 product vs. their 100K+ output demand on first production units.

Right now the ipv D2 has seen several short release delays, yet the biggest question is still................When will it ship!!!

That's a big reason why they made the 4s. They took the charging board completely out of the 4s. And I agree with that. As a consumer who is the one who actually uses the product and give out hard earned money for, we tend to be a lot picker. They're just mass producing an item to get our money. And also the d2? Haven't heard about that. What's that supposed to have? Might have to wait. Was just going to purchase either the Ipv3li or the ipv4s.

IPv D2 is the single 18650 release. 75w and TC

They're just mass producing an item to get our money.

Isn't this the goal of all manufacturers?

Really only 2 choices:
Early adopter - report issues back to the manufacturer
Wait and see - purchase last months latest greatest updated/corrected but behind in the game.

Again, the Number 1 question from the majority waiting on new release product is - When will it ship? - Not - did they get it right this time?

We have created the nature of the beast.
