Heavy rain can have temporary adverse effects.

Update November 16, 2021: I believe the problem I had in August was due to the product getting wet from heavy rain the previous day. After a couple of weeks it should be completely dried up and working normally again and prior to this current version I had absolutely no problems with it. Update 08/25/2021: There is an advertisement. somehow started working again. But as you can see from the video, this is typical use over the last week or so where it works briefly when first turned on (of the day) and then crashes/freezes at some point during the drive. The longest I got it to "work" was about 2 minutes before freezing. When you turn off the device to fix it, the display is still "on" even when it's actually off, but when you turn it back on the next day, it works briefly. Currently, I only use it to upload my trips to Strava, which strangely works even when the device itself isn't working properly. I've attached a video showing typical behavior on the *FIRST* start of a day. After that, it freezes any moment and gets stuck on that display for at least 24 hours, which I've noticed. Original Review: I can't remember if I wrote a review on this first or not, so I'll include everything in this one. I have owned it since July 12, 2020 and it has worked very well for me. It was very easy to connect to Wahoo and Garmin heart rate sensors and monitors. If you just care about your stats and don't need a head unit card and are on a budget then this is perfect for you. He was very accurate and in group tours. HOWEVER, it worked flawlessly for me for exactly 13 months a day. The device no longer displays numeric data (numbers, letters, battery level, etc.) even though the backlight is on from today. It still works, which is very strange. I can turn it on by pressing the Go button to start/pause a ride and even sync my rides via the XOSS app. Another issue I had was that the screen sagged a bit so it didn't fit properly. I'm not sure what could have caused this, but it still worked fine and was unnoticeable unless you clicked the bottom corners. These issues prompted me to give it one star; But for the price, it's hard to beat the features you get.
