Bushnell 1600 TE

Problem with plastic eye lid . . .

Has anyone else had a problem with the plastic eyelid thingy? I took out my range finder this afternoon and i noticed that that the plastic eye gaurd appeared to be coming off. It is as if the glue that holds it on melted. I was able to pull it off with little to no effort. The machine is still workable, but it is only 1 month old. I never leaver it in the car in the sun. When it is in the car, my car is in a parking garage

UPDATE - as seen below, I had an issue with my rangefinder and the eyelid peeling off from the unit. GG replaced the unit. The same thing happened with my new unit. IS anyone else having this issue with their Bushnell? I take good care of it and it has not been overly hot when I am playing. It just seems odd that it has happened twice for the "#1 rangefinder on tour". If it matters, I don't keep it in the case when I play.

Actually peeling away from the unit? --> send it back.

The eyepiece does rotate up/down from the unit when you twist it.

Yeah - it just basically peels off. When I rotate it up, if I twist jsut a little more it comes off. I took out the unti today and it looked like there was some type of liquid on the hosel to the eye piece, which I am assuming is the glue. Do you think I should go right to bushnell or the store I got it?

[/quote]Definitely to the store --- try to force them to deal with it.

Bushnell is super slow.

Went to Golf Galaxy. They basically replaced it with no questions asked after looking at it. Good customer service!!

Good on GG --- handled it as it should be.

Glad it worked out.
