24" Surf Pad - Regular

I purchased this item to attach to the zipper on my jacket. When I got it and removed it from the packaging card I found that the back is not enclosed with plastic. It is really a cheap piece of junk.

The cardboard card that shows the temperature and has the wind chill information on the back is exposed. It is only held in place by a little plastic edge of the front plastic piece.

I expected the card to be contained inside with plastic on the front AND the back so it would be waterproof. Instead there is no back. If you attach the item to a jacket or other zipper (on a pack for instance) and wear it out in the rain or snow the cardboard will get wet and be damaged.

I think just wearing it on a zipper with the cardboard exposed and using it as a zipper pull is going to cause damage because the cardboard is only held in place by four little ridges on the edge of the plastic on the front.

I won't know how it holds up because I plan to return it as soon as I can.

This thing works great on backpacks, zippers, anywhere that you would like the temp. and a compass handy. Wish I would have ordered two.
