Also the WIFI feature is awesome.
If it doesn't cause the scope to freeze.
The GPS is what causes the scope to freeze. Make sure the GPS is turned off. If it is searching for signal there is a good chance it will freeze the scope. That is the biggest flaw so far on teh X- Sight II.
I will double check that. I'm 99% sure its off though. I turned off everything I could to try and get some extra time on the batteries. Thing likes to eat them. I saw your post about using a power bank, good info wish I would have seen that sooner. I haven't even gotten a chance to really test it and gone through several sets of lithiums. Pretty frustrating. Missed out on a comparison video with the photon xt bc the batteries were to low and couldn't stop the recording. The video is corrupt and worthless now.
battery pack: amazon, limefuel 20000 mah. I have 2 of them and think they are the best available. dual usb plugs, one at 1 amp and the other at 2.1 amps, both 5 volt. they easily run the scope all night, aluminum construction, meter window so you know how much charge is left, led light.
worth the money.
as for ir light, I use the streamlight super tac ir, runs about 80-90.00 with the mount but well worth it for the distance and durability.
limefuel 20k mah pack, they have upgraded it (now has 4 ports)
