With what you have, the connector itself is not pressure rated, and instead the cap with o-ring is required to protect it. Also, if the socket does get water ingress, especially salt water, it's all but impossible to clean any residue.
With 2.0, the connector on the cannister is rated, it does not require a cap with an o-ring to seal it, and there are no cavities to collect residue.
I'd love to upgrade my Nanights to have this charging point, but they have no charge port at all - I gotsta open the canister, disconnect the battery and charge the old fashioned way. Not sure if its possible to retro fit a charge port onto mine
Shipping costs seems a bit excessive to the US. Can be part of the fact all packages are packages at the moment and no real flat-ware is existing anymore (due to new custom regulations since last year)
I have no idea what they are charging from Sweden towards The Netherlands, but a package from the Netherlands towards the US with track and trace is almost E30/35USD at the moment.
A small letterbox package, (no track and trace possible) is E11/13.5USD.
it looks like some kind of magnetic style DIY connector ? ... on tank side
.....and where is charger side ?
1. We are going to ship a bunch of these to our US distributor. This will reduce the shipping costs considerably. They should be able to help you with installation as well: info@saltblue.com.
2. There was previously an error with the shipping weight for this item on our website. It should now qualify for a bit lower shipping.
Any update on this?
I can't get any responses from Saltblue. I checked your website. It's still $25 for the part and $25 for shipping.
I don't mind paying, but I think I should at least get a small break on a new charge port, since the old style is defective..... I haven't even had the light a year.
