my earphones sometimes seem like there's a short between the mic & the speakers, so I was looking for a new pair of headphones. I'm not leaving the house much these days, definitely not cycling, so don't need earphones, just something light.
-
I liked my old pair of PortaPros, but they got busted, and anyway didn't have a mic. So I went looking for a set of those that do have a mic - but the mic option makes them stupid expensive. But I did find a cable with a mic on it, designed to replace the original cord.
-
so I ordered that - got a soldering iron, know how to fuck around with wires. and today it arrived... and I absolutely cannot find the busted pair of PortaPros. looked in all of my many boxes of slightly broken electronics.
-
frustration of being unable to find object
-
now added to with: object that needs to be kept track of until original object turns up
-
also, between ordering the replacement cable & it showing up, I have bought two pairs of earphones from AliExpress (in the singles day sale, for a total of around £30). the wireless ones have already arrived, and seem to work great. Tronsmart Onyx Ace, if you're curious.
