What batteries? ! - SightMark Wraith HD 2-16x28mm Digital Night Vision Rifle Scope, 50mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)

For an inexpensive night vision scope and various profiles to be able to use it on different weapons I began to enjoy it but after a few months I got really tired of having to change the batteries so frequently because it just uses for double a batteries. It doesn't record sound at all in the video is a little bit grainy especially at night. I had tried an ATM but it froze every 25 seconds and my finger got tired of holding the power button down and rebooting it a thousand times a day so I returned it and I got this and I was really happy but after a couple of months I was changing the batteries and the battery covered door just fell out on the ground along with the batteries and saw there was a little plastic battery holder with a brass ferule for the threads on the cover and it broke and when I contacted them they said they'll have to come back to the factory and I got busy and waited a couple of months figuring it was a lifetime warranty. It was a busy time and I continued using it with a battery pack like you would use to charge your cell phone and it worked fine but if I was going to go out in the woods instead of sitting in a blind I would need to have the battery cover door closed and the cover for the memory card closed to keep the moisture and dirt out. So I decided to go ahead and send it back and then they sent me an email and said we don't fix those we just replace them but you're out of warranty because you got it on sale as a refurbished unit so you get no warranty so $500 down the tube. I used to build microelectronics and have equipment for working on tiny things under a microscope and I will disassemble this and revamp it. In the meantime my HenBaker is working extremely well. It has Wi-Fi features and records audio and can be used as a standalone device on a pellet gun or using the attachments be put on just about any scope.
