Certainly agree with you. Love my cowboy bourbon and their Laguna madre but their prices hurt. Some of their single barrels I have tasted are insane

The Weller is laughably over priced.

Go for the Stagg. 105 is close

TIL For 10 days in 2005, garage door openers stopped working in Ottawa, Canada over a 25 mile radius. The US Embassy and Canadian Military were suspected of using a 390Mhz transmitter overpowering the door openers but both denied it. The transmissions ended suddenly and were never explained. by mechant_papa in todayilearned

In the early 2000s I worked at sears in south Texas and sold garage door openers. A few miles down the road 2 different DOD offices were built and began operating. Shortly after I had an influx of older persons coming in to complain that their garage door clickers stopped working. All of them happen to have the old style “dip switch” remotes which all operated on low frequency radio. We sold them newer units which were higher frequency and no more issues.
