After 3 years of use, is dead, send it to flir, and they jusy want you to buy a new one, reconsider! - FLIR Systems Scout III 320 Thermal Night Vision Monocular

I wanted to share my disappointment with the lifespan of this device. Despite taking meticulous care, using it for only about three months a year, never dropping it, never leaving it exposed to the elements overnight it has failed after just four years. Considering I spent thousands of dollars on it, this is deeply frustrating.

To make matters worse, your only solution is for me to spend thousands more on a replacement. For a device that costs this much, lasting less time than a toaster or sandwich maker is simply unacceptable and quite telling about the product’s quality and your company reputation.

The only thing left for me to do is to be vocal about it, and prevent people to make the same mistake I made.
