You don't agree with battery self-discharge? The risks of leaving a discharged battery sitting for years? Temperature sensitivity in storage? Or something else?
I've worded my comments through this thread as "I wouldn't buy one" and "I would hesitate". Not exactly ordering people around and doing a "disservice". The OP asked for opinions on potential drawbacks - this is mine. If this device doesn't come with a robust warranty that explicitly includes a guarantee of a long battery life for a good amount of time into the future, I would not buy it. It's false economy.
I agree that the Aura HD had a great feature set when it was released in 2013.
