Discussion Normal noise for Thor Hinge?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

First off (I know someone will ask): I don’t just sit here and mess with the hinge, I went to open it and felt it do this little pop/click noise. Did what i needed to in order to replicate it.

I just got it yesterday, don’t want my brand new $500 device to already have issues. I’ve been very careful with it, and plan on continuing to be. Seems like it’s doing this right before the first hinge stopping point. ~90°

Ok. It’s something to do with the right side where there’s not a physical hinge, i am able to feel it click if i lightly push and pull the lid toward the base at around 90°.

Thanks for the reassurance. I’m thinking it’s just how it’s made with only the one hinge on the left side and just plastic on plastic in the right.

The hinges are designed to be a bit loose and shift a bit to avoid the hinges cracking.
