Same problem with Nox as some others have had.

There was a curb strip that I wanted to hunt but last weekend the ground was bone dry. That area got over an inch of rain Wed. evening. So yesterday I was in the area. Even though I was in a lot of pain and the Heat index was 100F, I decided to search it. After about 30 min the Nox's display went dark. I remember seeing a post where someone else had that problem when using the screen cover. I turned the detector on when I got home and all is normal now.
Has anyone had this problem when not using a screen/control box cover.
TIA

Thanks guys... I hate not using the cover especially after seeing your post TNSS on the wear on the touch pads. I may tinker with a different type of cover to see if I can get one to protect w/o that problem

For what it's worth, I have the neoprene and plastic cover for my Nox 600.
The housing nicks up easy. I don't baby it but figure a cover will make it last a little longer.

I haven't had the blackout problem yet.

I just did a 6-hour hunt in the Texas heat and sun today and had no issues. Hottest it's been during a hunt with the Nox so far is 97 with heat index around 103.

I hope Im not in for a blackout in the future. I don't want to take cover off.

When I went out it was the middle of the day.. sun straight overhead beading down on the screen may have been the culprit. I don't believe it was the heat as I left it in my truck and when I remembered it I got it out of the truck and the screen displayed fine... the temp in the truck was way higher than the day the screen blackout so I believe the problem was sun radiation related.. just my 2¢
