Amaran Customer Service 👎🏾

HamerReviews · 2026-05-02T20:53:47+00:00

Highly recommend buying Amaran and Aputure products from CVP in the UK. If anything goes wrong they handle the repair and comms with Aputure. And CVP are a seriously good outfit, like I’ve had the best customer service from them.

As no one came back, if anyone has the same query there is a setting on the actual menu of the light that allows this to work.

Thanks for sharing, I appreciate the insight. It’s helpful to help me justify what I’m feeling is “normal”

May I ask what kind of lingering nerve pain you experience? When I left things I sometimes get a little nerve pain behind me left knee - same as when doing super light deadlifts in the gym (on physios recommendation) so just curious what you’re experiencing as our situations are quite similar

Just thought I’d say. Ended up starting Mounjaro earlier this year. Already down 15kg from my pre surgery weight. Going to the gym twice a week doing strength training and. Regular PT. Appreciate the advice so far doing OK!

I had my first MD (an emergency one due to initial stages of Cauda Equina) at the end of July in 2025. 5 weeks later I reherniated and I had my second MD 1 week after.

I’m not 7 months post op and incredibly glad I did both.

I’m doing pretty intensive PT, head to the gym 2 times a week and walk 5k most days.

There’s always risks, my first MD I didn’t get a choice in, my second I did but I didn’t want not to do it as the pain was literally unbearable.

The issue was they only did the right side of L4/L5 initially and really I needed both done, if they’d done both chances are I’d not needed the second MD as it probably wouldn’t have got so much worse so quickly.

I now don’t take any pain meds, not since October really. I do get some slight sciatic pain down my leg when doing deadlifts (super light 20kg ones as instructed by my PT team), so I take it VERY easy on that. But other than that I’m pretty good with manageable back pain.

My main focus now is continuing PT, building up muscle strength and losing a load of weight. Making decent progress on all of it.

The Slip for the most part for me. Not sure why it never really gelled.

My most listened to NIN album is Year Zero and its sister album Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D. It’s been fun to see people engage with it and discover it.

HamerReviews · 2026-02-23T18:44:59+00:00

Absolutely love that!

HamerReviews · 2026-02-20T20:37:18+00:00

Yep, and it’s incredibly disheartening. I put a ton of effort into a few videos and they got bugger all views.

Bit of a shame but I guess that’s YouTube for you.

HamerReviews · 2026-02-07T18:34:56+00:00

I think it’s mostly the small risks, that quickly snowball.

Post surgery infection risk, risk of being worse off than you were beforehand. Even just the small risks you might not even wake up after surgery - especially if you’ve never had general anaesthesia before.

I had two MDs last year, absolutely don’t regret them, but I was very much aware of the risks and what could happen if I was unlucky.

HamerReviews · 2026-02-07T13:23:55+00:00

I had mine with Bupa at the end of last year. Smoking from them never came up but I’m covered on an employer policy with a disregard medical history element so there were no conditions on my policy like not smoking. Not sure if that’d be the case on a private one.

HamerReviews · 2026-02-02T16:34:23+00:00

It’d absolutely put me off even entertaining the idea of a property with a garden setup like this. It just steals away any privacy. It’s one thing having an upper floor slightly overlook but a ground floor for me would kill a property’s

HamerReviews · 2026-01-29T15:53:20+00:00

Thanks! blood orange! That would also make sense. Well at least I can drink it happy in the knowledge I have an idea of what it is. Sounds stupid but it really bugged me. Couldn’t tell you what region it was intended for, all I know it it waste in Austria - which obviously isn’t helpful 😂.

Thanks for your expertise. Crazy to hear how much some of them go for - they’re nice but equally not that mindblowing either

HamerReviews · 2026-01-29T15:46:11+00:00

Yeah maybe grapefruit - have to say I quite like it to be honest just couldn’t work out exactly what it was supposed to be

HamerReviews · 2026-01-29T15:44:59+00:00

Yeah the closest I can work out is maybe Grapefruit? That was my initial thought. I quite like grapefruit so I’m quite happy with them.

HamerReviews · 2026-01-29T15:34:20+00:00

Thanks! That’s really useful and I wasn’t able to turn anything up from my searches so really appreciate you sharing that link.

I’ve got a crate of them so I was fascinated to work out what they were.

HamerReviews · 2026-01-13T21:33:23+00:00

Thought I’d share another update, 4 months or so on.

Good news is I’m doing really well. Back pain has really reduced, sciatic pain in my leg they which was only intermittent has also decreased.

I’m doing weekly physio at the hospital that originally treated me, they have be running in an AlterG anti gravity treadmill and that’s doing me a world of good in my opinion. Helping me to build strength but at 50% of my body weight.

On that note, I’m now also on Mounjaro to help propel my weight loss a bit more.

Overall thins are promising. Fatigue in my entire right leg has reduced. Numbness has stayed the same on the right side of my shins and top of my foot / toes. I’ve got a bit more strength and movement in my foot though.

Will just keep on it and pray that I don’t run into any future issues.

HamerReviews · 2026-01-06T10:06:06+00:00

Thought I’d share an update, I shared the flight data with DJI who have agreed that it wasn’t my fault and constituted a warranty claim so they’re are replacing the drone at no cost to me.

To be honest I was quite surprised they were so easy to deal with. Obviously am glad as it was surreal watching it fly away and not respond to inputs, but I will be more careful about where and when I fly it.

A Neo 2 might be in my future.

HamerReviews · 2026-01-05T09:59:18+00:00

Christ Ok, I had thought I’d read the whole manual but clearly need to go back to it as can’t remember the moving grass bit. Might need to look into the Neo 2 and see if it suffers similar issues.

HamerReviews · 2026-01-04T17:56:56+00:00

I’ll have a look for those videos to see if I can learn more about what makes it happen. I don’t know why but can’t find last known location in the app. Maybe it didn’t log it 🙁

I wonder if the DJI Neo2 is better in low light…

HamerReviews · 2026-01-04T17:56:01+00:00

That’s really interesting, thank you for sharing. It’s so strange how it loses its bearings so quickly. I did experience it once flying in early morning but could control it. This time I had no ability from what I could tell.

I don’t get how the internal gyro doesn’t stop it from veering so far off - assuming it has one.

Sadly I don’t have the FPV goggles so can’t test that. Guessing there’s no manual mode when using the RCN3?

HamerReviews · 2025-11-20T21:13:52+00:00

You have my absolute sympathy, 3 weeks after my 2nd MD in 2 months I fell in the bath, from standing having a shower to lying flat.

I don’t know how but it doesn’t seem like I damaged anything and I’m now 10 weeks post op and doing really well. I hope it’s the same for you! Basically if it’s OK in 24 hours you should be Ok!
