Aura One Waterproofing. Does using a micro USB dust plug affect it?
Hello
Has anyone used a micro usb dust plug in their Aura One and had it affect the waterproofing of the charging port in a bad way?

Shouldn't have any effect. The waterproofing is not sealing the reader but more coating the internals to protect them.
