Welcome FishingIsLife
I love my Fishin Buddy 2255 model and six of the guys I fish with have them now because of my success. It's not better than the rest but it's easy to use. It uses 3 "c" batteries. My dad has a model 1200 Fishin Buddy and he likes it also. The important thing I think is that you can see an ice fly with a meal worm at 30 feet and I can with my Fishin Buddy.
P.S. I bought the new Fishin Buddy 4200 just to have the latest and greatest but it's not as good. I sent it back to Johnson to see if there was something wrong with it. They sent me a new one and wouldn't said if the old one was broke. I used it at Strawberry last week and it was better but I was unable to see my jig at 30 feet so it's going back to Cabela's ASAP
GOOD LUCK from the Tapper
