Anyone keeping extra spare sets of 2nd generation AirPods for when they are no longer available?

Airpods Pro 2 are a HUGE upgrade from PowerBeats Pro
In case you were wondering, the Airpods Pro 2 are WAY better than Powerbeats Pro in every way (that matters to me): 1) sound quality - was very surprised at how much better, was expecting only a marginal improvement; and spatial audio is a noticeable bonus improvement 2) comfort, fit 3) UI 4)... -

Airpods (2nd Gen): Left Airpod doesn't connect until I put it back in the case and wear it again
My left airpod (Airpods 2nd Gen) often doesn't connect with my devices (MBP 2015 & iPhone 7), until I take both my Airpods out, place them back in the case and wear them a second time. This is peculiar, because other than this my Airpods work perfectly. Once I re-insert them, there are no...- Pilot Jones
