So I bought this thing last year with high hopes. It shoots through the ice and the specs say it's rated to work at -22F. Bogus. The thing doesn't work at all when it gets cold and by cold I mean 30 degrees--even with lithium batteries. This makes it more as useful as a paper weight. It does work accurately when it's warm (like on the dash or in my pocket) but after being exposed 1 minute, it totally shuts down. It won't even turn on. StrikeMaster wants $52 to replace it. I don't want to give them anymore money out of principle. But I'm over a barrel here: a new Vexilar hand held would be $140 and I'm still stuck with the Polar Vision I couldn't sell in good conscience.

Maybe just mine is a dud? Anyone else have any good or bad things to say about this product?
