On my last trip with our scout troop, my other leader had a spot with him. He was borrowing it from a friend. Every night we hit the OK button. Out of the 5 nights we were out, my wife got 3 emails that we were OK.

But, I don't think it is a bad product. I think that it would be a good idea to share one with a bunch of other hiking buddies and share the cost as well.
