Well here you go. I lost this off my sled in January. Had a good Idea of the tree that ripped it off my mount. Went for a bike ride over Fairview canyon yesterday and went for a little hike. There it was !! 8 months on the mountain. At least 5 of those months buried in snow. Picked it up, dusted it off and turned it on !!

Yep, love my 120 rhino, takes a beating on atvs and on the snow. My only knock on them is they use quite a bit of battery juice. I have 2 and always take one anytime I head to the hills.

Yes, my experience with the 120 is the same. eats batteries but tough as a rhino. ive had my pair for three years and they were use when i bought them. torn boots, missing rubber covers from use and still work. the range is acceptable for the power allowed to transmit and receive radio com too.

Some friends of mine have a story like that from a couple years ago.

Rino was lost when sled rolled a bunch of times down the hill. They searched for it for a while but were unable to located it, so they just saved waypoints at the top and bottom of the path the sled rolled down, went back on quads in the spring and walked the path. There it was. Same thing...picked it up, dusted it off and turned it on. Its still in use today! They are great!
