customer service is great at otto is great!

nitriding embeds itself into the metal, dlc is a coating that can come off with wear, I agree, call defiance and ask them. I just checked my action which has around the same count of cycling and have no wear like that.

light optical works, then?

these are great! not a single problem with the new pair.

can we get a photo of the corrosion? if it's blue or white then that'd be an alkaline. though tbh, I don't know the color of a lithium leak as I've never seen one. I'm not certain it's even possible.

wow.. this is also the first time I've heard of a lithium primary leaking. I'm now very interested in the photos, thank you!

That is inherent with Alkaline batteries, or as I know them, alka-leaks. it is quite obviously not a manufacturer defect. lithium batteries mentioned above will not leak.

I used my set through around 5 hrs of shooting and they were pretty much un-noticeable. I'm quite pleased with my purchase :)

I got my replacements straight from Otto. They work just fine, looking forwards to using them, will update with relevant data when available.

I sent the set back to OTTO, they're shipping out a new set to me.

Good news and bad news.. The Otto Noizebarriers arrived early, but it appears one of the plugs does not work. The charging case says 90% but I'll charge both and see if I can get it working. I also sent an email to Etymotic to find out who I should be contacting for warranty. ETY has been great...

right now it appears to be 10% off on botach's ebay store.

multiple deal sites posted it, along with the deals section on a california firearms forum (I'm in california). I think there have been sales every month or so, but not all at 20%.

ebay has been having random 1 day sales, this one was a 20% off sitewide one. i offered 325 to botach and also used the code, so OTD it was $260 for me. I've seen 15% off sitewide more often, they don't really announce them that much in advance. edit: gross, botach shipped them out via fedex...

I just picked up a set of ottos from botach on ebay after yesterday's 20% off sale. will update with results if anyone is interested :)
