I've had several hundred dollars worth of digital Starrett go black to my surprise. I don't cold soak my laptop.
It occurs to me that rangefinders (and handbearing compasses), shot timers, chronographs, laser bore sighters, Hawkeye borescopes, illuminated reticules, Crimson Trace sights and more have batteries and many have displays.
Beyond flashlights a nice borelight and the Starrett mics and calipers I haven't lost much yet.
Still I'd be in a real bind if everything I have with displays goes black. Any thoughts or experiences on cold soak or just overnight exposure or......
