I'm having the same problem as the user 'Bill' wrote on TW reviews on 12/15.
Comments: Dynamite! But I'm having some trouble with strings breaking. Admittedly, because of my wrist, I'm using a 16 g multi so it's soft, etc. but breaking after 2 hours, and happening near the grommets which are cracking very easily. Is anyone else having this issue -- with grommets and strings breaking? Any suggestions on a soft co-poly to add a little string life if that is the case? Although, I use the same multis on my previous racquet (Blade) and didn't have these same problems.

I have used Tecnifibre Black Code 17 and Prince Tour XC 16L and strings are breaking very easily at the top, near the grommets.
I've seen that some of the grommets have cracked too, and the racquets are almost new. I have played each of them no more than 4 or 5 hitting sessions and they have not been misused or mistreated in any way.
Also, they have always been strung by different professional stringers at 22/21kg, well within the recommended tension range
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a design flaw with the grommets or the last cross being so far down?
It is VERY annoying, the last day I broke 3 strings in 45 min and had no racquets left... Yes, I did mishit some of the balls like we all do, but I haven't had this problem with any other racquet. They pop on the first not-so-hard mishit.
All of them were freshly strung.
On top of that, I don't seem to be able to find replacement grommets for the 100P, and I don't think I'm willing to change them so often anyway.
