Default Anyone have a Bushnell Firefly?

I have the 3200 with Firefly reticle. I have to say, I am not sure if I like it. When I first got it I shined a light through it, and the reticle lit up bright green. But then after about 1 minute, it was real dim. Then maybe another minute later, it wasnt lit up at all.

I thought maybe I got a defective scope or something, but in re-reading the manual, I found that the idea is - you shine the light throuhg the scope, and the reticle glows bright green. then the glow goes away, until you are in a low light condition. At that point, the reticle will slowly change from black to a lighter color, depending on how light it is out.

I guess it will work fine, but I was expecting to see that green glow the entire time. or at least the green glow when it is dark out. Has anyone used this score at night yet?? Any reviews.

p.s. I really like the scope in general, it's just the illuminated part that I am not too sure about.
