early review of knitpicks zephyr options

My 2 pair of Zephyr Acrylic Options interchangeable knitting needle tips arrived last week. They're a little strange looking but they're light weight and I doubt that they will hold cold the way nickle ones do. I have to say, I'm skeptical about their "staying power." The threaded collar into which the threaded pin on the end of the cables to which these tips attach, is affixed in the same way the Harmony Wood Options interchangeable knitting needle tips were. I didn't have a good experience with those, as much as I wanted to. I have nearly finished the 1st project for which I'm using the new tips. So far, I'm neutral. I don't love them yet, but they function just fine. I need to spend a little more time with them.
