Hi All,
I just received a used Neptune EnergyBar 4.
The outside looks to be in near mint condition..but Im guessing it’s not normal to hear something small move/rattle around loose inside when I tilt or gently shake the unit?
Thought I’d ask here..Before I try and disassemble to have a look.

Cheers

Update. I ended up partially opening up the enclosure and managed to shake out what was rattling loose. Does anyone know if this small plastic piece is important?

Looks like a latch broke off of one of the outlets. It holds the plastic outlet cover from popping out of the metal enclosure when you pull the plug out of it. Each outlet cover has 2 of these latches. Not a very big deal if you are careful operating it.
