Has anyone used these? They are a pretty good price on Camofire for a folding carbon pole, but a lot of times all those moving parts have weaknesses under loads. Thought I would see if anyone has any feedback before I spring for them.

I liked everything about them till the first time I used them in cold temps. The plastic collar that holds the flick lock broke, rendering the pole basically useless.

Sent them back to camofire. Wanted another set to give a try. They refunded my money instead. I'm moving on.

That’s kind of what I was wondering. Thanks for the feedback. Broken poles with a warranty are kind of worthless when you need them in the backcountry.
