Now I currently own a few more and have an issue with the majority of them. I have a 3vo a lavatube al a vmod and a buzz pro. I like all of them and have had an issue with which one to take to work.. I generally take my 3vo and keep my buzz in the car. I keep the buzz in the car as a backup as I would rather not chance being out and not having a pg nar me. They both take the same batter so it is nice to only carry 2 mods rather than 2 complete setups. I choose not to take my buzz out with me because I do alot of construction work and invariably I am inherintly rough on my pg's as they are laid down on various tables and thrown in pockets etc as I move about my day. however after 3 weeks of what I would.call average use for my line of work the 3vo is dead. First the cap for the tank stripped a week ago and today it rolled off a 4 ft high cabinet and landed bottom down on the concrete floor. The light only flashes red now...GRRR... At any rate anyone have an opinion on severe condition mods? Something built like a tank? Also anyone have recommendations for a holster for mods? I need to stop breaking these things. First a bolt now a 3vo. I just need a steel tube with rubber armor.There ya go folks 2 million dollar ideas... Rubber mod jackets and severe duty pv's

    I go the other way with mods for rough duty. These little things only costs me $2.20 to build, so I don't really care if it gets lost, stollen, or broken. It's been in the duck blind, rabbit hunting, fishing, tossed in the toolbox, you name it.

    I'm biased a bit. My Silver Bullet has been through everything. Installs in gas plants in an H2S heavy environment, dropped in water, dropped from a pocket onto concrete, dropped from a pocket onto square steel tubing, etc. I've had no problems with it mechanically at all. In water, I got to toss the carto, battery, etc, but the main switch dried out and it's worked fine since.

    My Precise plus has been pretty hardcore, but I was gonna suggest the Silver bullet as well because its much cheaper, the precise is much smaller but costs twice as much I think, the precise also comes with a lifetime warranty, which is nice if anything did happen. Also, someone mentioned the copper mod, and those things are literally like a tank, they are made of plumbing pipes, my brother used one in a steel factory for quite some time but what he didnt like about it was the maintenance of all that brass.
