I can't imagine how filthy the port would get on mine. Industrial work places and open ports are notconductive conducive to the healthy life of electronics.

    Not conductive? Isn’t that a good thing?

    I don't know if you looked at the photo in my post - but there's a rubber flap covering the USB-port.

    Yeah. That makes it splash resistant, not water and grime proof. I have a pair of bone conduction headphones I wear at work with that flap and I still have to use contact cleaner on that port like at least once every couple of weeks.
