Customer Reviews

Good design but not practical.
I purchased one of these about a year ago the flashlight is still running good but temperature display is no more I actually emailed Highgear and they responded by saying the temperature battery could not be replaced so basically you're SOL so now it's basically a flashlight,compass and whistle. I would of been very satisfied with this product if you could replace the battery for the temperature gauge as well.

Let down by thermometer battery
A fun little gadget for people like me who imagine that when you are lost in a blizzard after fighting of a mountain lion bare handed, it will help save your life. Until then it will probably have limited practical outdoor use - maybe limited to using the flashlight to locate the lost chocolate bar in the bottom of your backpack. The most use I have had for it is the magnifier at home, for example reading the lettering on button cell batteries. Which is what I did when it was time to replace my battery because the thermometer didn't work. But hang on, the replaceable batteries are for the flashlight alone and there is no possible way they can power the thermometer & there is no way I can see to replace the thermometer battery. This was confirmed by Highgear support who kindly apologised but since I am out of warranty no luck. I used my other more useful gadget, my swiss army knife to prise off the bezel(leaving a few little gouge marks behind) and get access to the thermometer and the battery. Just need a trip to Radioshack to get a battery and a screwdriver tiny enough to remove the battery retaining clip and superglue to fix the bezel back in place..... until the next time.

Almost perfect
The compass is a little skittish, but you get used to it. And the small storage compartment is perfect for matches. The thermometer is of questionable use, except to quantify how fast you are freezing or frying.
