Maybe the Silk Screener typed in "Mecro" into the software program and Spellchecker changed it to "Macro"?

You jest, but I held one yesterday with the Subtank Nano on it. Looking at the box, it is difficult to believe it holds an 18650 until you open it. The battery contacts are extremely low profile so it is maybe 3mm taller than the battery itself. I was very impressed at how tiny it was. What I did NOT like, is that the magnets that hold the door are also very tiny, and simply removing it from your pocket or applying a slight downward force on the door while holding it is enough to strip the battery cover. They might want to include a spare.
I forgot to mention I was speaking of photography... Macro lenses take something small and make it big, some are called micro lenses to take pictures of small things... both do the same thing.
Also confused with people who do a lot of excel or programming work... like using Macros... taking long strings of commands and condensing it down into fewer keystrokes or into one execution string.
I know that macro and micro have different actual definitions, I am just saying it depends on how you want to use it. In the case of this mod... I think its taking something "big" like all the features of a dna 40 chip... and getting into the smallest form factor you can.
Or they are just being funny and calling it macro because its actually, ironically small.
Thanks ALL for the field reports

Very Cool.
Please when you Get It. And let us know how you Like It.
Oooooookay, so my package was scanned in Pittsburgh PA and Ypsilanti today at the same time and now I just got an update saying out for delivery at both locations. I live in Ypsi, never been to Pittsburgh. Oh, UPS, you're such a card! Such a practical joker!
Whaaaa TF.
Who needs CERN labs with UPS leading quantum physics research?

Soooo.... Vaporshark warning--not only is my package scanning in two locations but today I received $900 in charges to strange websites and got a call asking for my pin number.
VS is the last transaction I used this card for.
BUYER BEWARE. Guess they didn't fix their security breach.

Wow... That is Not the kind of thing I would like to Wake up and find when I turned on my Computer.
866-821-9096 is the dummy fishing number. Do NOT give them any information even if they show as your bank in caller ID.
Uh, you never give any information anyways. You're bank knows who you are and wouldn't ask for it if they called.
I actually got a call from the legitimate bank fraud department today too. They do call. They definitely don't ask for your pin number though.
I did a Quick Google search for 866-821-9096. The Results were Not Pretty.

They don't ask for any information that would allow someone to purchase from your account. But really this is a problem with online retailers more than anything else. I will never buy from a retailer that doesn't allow for PayPal payments. Typing your credit card information into a website is never fully secure. In fact, no online payment method is perfectly secure. But when you go through a method like paypal, the payment process takes you out of the retailers website and to paypal for the transaction. This method eliminates the keylogger and website hacks that nab your credit card information.
Credit card payments via a website need to go away entirely. It takes nothing for a company to set up a paypal account and accept payments through them. In fact, it's cheaper than the credit card fees they are charged.
So any online retailer that doesn't offer paypal payments, does not get my business. My financial accounts are way too important to me.

I know, and it was a dumb mistake on my part. I had heard of VS's security issues but I wanted an sbody and trusted that their issues had been resolved. They told me that they had hired a security firm to monitor their transactions this summer after the initial fraud reports.
Thing is, that security won't detect an internal problem. I'm in online retail myself and had to face that fact a few years ago.

Well, I have been a victim before, twice iirc. this sucks I hope VS finds out what's going on quick I was thinking about getting this PV but will hold off.. Wish they used PayPal.. sorry this has happened to you @hypocritelecteur
