I'll check with the mesh supplier, but I don't know of any changes to the material. The funny thing is that the HF5 and ER4SR use the exact same damper so, all other variables being equal, they should perform similarly.
My HF5 finally gave out at the cable. If I'd known (the future), I'd salvaged the filters!
Now, bad from the get go is something different. That almost sounds like it was contaminated before you got it. But, if it was, it wouldn't have passed end of line testing. It's very odd.
The filter that was bad from the get-go was one of the additional filters (not one of the preinstalled filters). Just to be clear.
I'll see if I can snag some recent production filters and do a bit of research.
Thank you kindly. Sometime a filter gets right again (as is the case now of my left side one), but it'll fail again at some point, more and more often and for longer times. I wrote the whole saga in this thread. It's been, as you said, very odd. I didn't even suspect the filters at first: they looked clean, and why would a filter stop working then work again the next day? So I thought it was a driver issue. But, nope.
