Product advisory -

It has come to our attention that the Lonex complete mechboxes that are currently on the market MUST have their Angle of Engagement of the piston corrected. If left unchecked, the piston will fail prematurely. The issue is most apparent on the M120 boxes.

We just did some stress testing last night and discovered that after a 5-minute sorbo install, the issue is fully resolved.

Here's the video of our stress test (this video MAY have been done after a few drinks)

And here are the pics of the piston AFTER this test. There is ZERO wear. (I KNOW RIGHT?!!! LOL WTF BBQ!!!)

As a result, we are now offering once again the option of having us open up the box and having the sorbo+neopad installed before the box is shipped out.

Please also note that the weak trigger post has now been addressed by Lonex on their V2 mechboxes.
