Purchased a few years ago. Used once at a live performance and then stored. There are no operational issues, but very rarely, the display doesn't clear. Removing and reinserting the batteries seems to fix it. Batteries are included, but the remaining charge is unknown. As this is a casual inspection, there may be overlooked minor stains, fraying, or scratches. Please consider this a used item and only purchase if you understand. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about details.
