I would just grab one before the camera gets there. It’s one of those things where if it does come with one, you’re not out much since you’ll probably need a bigger card eventually anyway.
I actually like that it doesn’t always match my mood. For me it’s been a better early warning system than how I feel in the moment. There’s been a few times where it flagged high stress and I brushed it off, then crashed a day later. I treat it more like a background clue than something to check when I’m already worked up.
The one-pull thing depends a lot on what you’re dealing with. If it’s a small object that’s not wedged in too tight, yeah, it can clear it fast. Bigger or softer stuff might take a couple of tries. We keep one in the car and one in the kitchen, but I’d never expect it to be a single guaranteed pull every time.
Honestly I’d say just grab a cheap one regardless. These handhelds usually come with that thin plastic film that’s more for keeping the screen clean in the box than surviving daily use. I learned that the hard way with a different console years ago, so now I just assume I need to buy my own.
I think the battery dying is probably the bigger issue than heat if you’re going for a few hours straight. Mine has gotten noticeably warm to the touch but never enough to worry me, it just drains pretty fast when it’s recording nonstop.
