Probably my wife eavesdroppers are just too cool. I place the clip always at the upper part of the ear, then it's better. In the frosts leagues months I have previously but basically getting warmed rub the ear to me. Also during the pedaling from time to time (daily, 30 min). Bought on 23.04.2012, is gone off me after about 6 months this transparent membrane and taped me solo at the ear. But my husband was able to successfully resolve with superglue the mishap.
I bought this clip, because the originals of Kettler broke (was suddenly dead). The new one is neither better nor worse. However, I can blame no measure of my under-tempered earlobe)
