I mentioned the difference in battery usage and heat when charging. The date of purchase and model may make a difference though. Bought mine at the end of 2021. This is a good article to get some info going into it. I did the online chat with Sony. Good luck!
Yepp. The WF-1000XM4 battery issue.
That was one of my fears as well. Thankfully, the issue is so wide spread that they are replacing them outright even after the warranty has elapsed. Sony WF-1000XM4 has an issue where one of the buds drains 5 times faster than the left. Started with firmware 1.4 or 1.4.2.
Kind of? If that makes sense. It’s less a feeling of accomplishment and more relief cause it isn’t hanging over my head anymore.
So my process was a bit out of order, but yes I was billed for a consultation as well as the assessment. I think after insurance my scenario was similar to yours. The Psychiatrist who I saw prior to my assessment (PCP referred me one step too far) suggested the online route as it would take 3 to 6 months to be assessed through conventional channels. I was also told it could cost as much as $3000 to $4000 for the assessment alone.
I figured that I didn’t have much to lose. With the Psychiatrist themselves telling me that the diagnosis given through the online service was an actionable diagnosis, then why not give it a try. Seems that the site employs a team or teams of credentialed and certified psychiatrists to report on the questionnaires.
Seems that the change in accepting a diagnosis from ADHDonline.com is a new thing as of this year or last.
Have you considered the adhdonline.com route? I was pointed that direction to get a on assessment as it was faster and less expensive. Assessments could have taken 3+ months and cost several thousand dollars. The online assessment cost $180 and I completed it in a few hours on a Friday afternoon. I had a diagnosis of ADHD (other) by midday the following Tuesday. I started on medication that Thursday.
I bought a 2lbs container of it off Amazon.
I can’t add anything concerning stringing that the other comment didn’t already cover, so I’ll ask about the gaps.
Have you tried upping the flow rate to fill them in? The other option I’ve used in the past was lowering my Z Offset if the flow was alright.
Keep in mind that changing your flow rate will likely also cause you have to mess with your retraction settings again.
