Holy crap great product.

This is my second one and a 2GB model with my work information. So you can imagine what I was like when I found it in my dryer PIPING HOT.

Wow, it lived through the entire wash cycle and an entire drying cycle. Highly recommended.

Yeah another reason I initially bought them, but I didn't think it would survive a wash cycle AND dryer.

Pics here.

It's just a little bit longer then a tic-tac box and not as thick if you put them both lying down.

Sandisk also pwns too.

wash cycle? yeah, i wouldn't think much, if you did that to one all day long....

but a dryer cycle? holy bejeezus! that's a lot of static potential!

 

[Vegito]

[Vegito]

I'll stick with my OCZ Rally and the good sense to check my pockets before the wash.

I just got one couple days ago, it transfers much faster than my old mini cruzer. Only bad thing is it attracts lint easily and the thing is so damn small I think I lost it already... lol

Really? I think it's pretty big for a flash drive. And it looks like a chode.

Someone did the same with an ipod shuffle, wash and then tumble dry, the buttons were deformed but it still worked perfectly.

Solid state is wonderful.

I have a sandisk cruzermini and it has survived multiple washes and tips in the dryer. Even with bleach

My shuffle died after three months for unknown reasons. *shrugg*

I only used it three times. It lights up and everything, but doesn't play music. Works fine when plugged into the computer too.

You didn't return it as faulty?

If not then why not?

 

[xtknight]

I believe some brand of flash survived being run over by a car.

 

[Jeff7181]

How hot would it actually get in a dryer? Would it really be much different than a toasty GPU running at 80 degrees C?

 

[Bobthelost]

Less than that i'd think.

Cruzer Titanium. It's a flash drive in a titanium enlcosing that slides out.

Haven't gotten around to it, too lazy. lol It was free anyways for signing up with my schwab card.

Heh, mine is going strong, while the other members of my family (the less active ones) have totaled at least 2 ipods of various types.
