 I'm with Robbie... June 8, 2008
I bought mine on clearance. Yes the thermometer quit working but I did like Robbie & pryed off the gray bezzle & replaced the battery. The battery is a A10 or 389/390. Make sure you clean all the contacts with a clean eraser head before re-assembly.
Also, my thermometer is reasonably accurate unlike some other comments.
Nifty little Gadget May 5, 2008
A good friend of mine bought this gadget for me and I think it is a fun little thing to have. I like the thermometer....it actually comes in handy out and about as well around the house too. The flashlight is not that strong, but good enough for small tasks. I like taking it hiking and on trips. It comes with a neck strap and it is just fun to have around. I would put it in the category of "fun" gear rather than "hard core." For $15 you can't expect too much really, can you? If you are seriously looking for something to save your life lost in the woods, it will probably not be this gadget, but I like it nonetheless. I am giving my mom a hiking book and this - it is a good little inexpensive trinket to complete a gift.
 Let down by thermometer battery November 5, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
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.
 Good design but not practical. June 30, 2007

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.

We were quite disappointed in this item I bought for my son's boy scout outings. There were no instructions so it took some time figuring some parts out and the flashlight did NOT work. It just proved to us once again a tool that can do everything is too good to be true.
