I don’t think I could come up with an actual hour number. I used the prototype heavily and never had to replace the pads on it yet, after several months.
I ordered 500 more pairs of pads from my manufacturer, and already sent most of my spare supplies to YYE.
Pads are the easiest, but… Flowable should work. Haven’t tried it yet, but there’s no reason it shouldn’t. I can actually give it a shot this week and report back!
It’s VERY grabby, but I can still get through Skin the Gerbil if I’m careful. Overall, works great, just takes more patience to set up, and it’ll be a bit before it wears down to the ideal response for me.
