The most fun I have had recently was with a GoPro. GoPros are guaranteed for one or two years, depending on where you live and are considered by the manufacturer to be close to a single use, disposable item. Therefore, when the warranty is over, that's it. If the camera fails, then nobody can or will try to fix it. >>Unfortunately, our GoPro repair service is currently closed. GoPro cameras >>are not designed to be repaired, only replaced. This is for a device which costs between $300 and $500 and has sold in the millions. My problem was with my wife's one. She uses it very occasionally and finally it would not turn on at all. After exhausting all the normal things including new batteries and rebooting, the bizarre solution which actually worked was to put it in the deep freeze overnight and then press all sorts of buttons. It did restart and now mostly works. So when you are considering FLARM problems in their tens or their hundreds from a small manufacturer, consider that you could be dealing with GoPro and think yourself lucky.
