Exclamation Raptor shiftlight probs.. Video added

Ok I've had my shiftlight for a while now and I noticed that it doesnt like to get warm. I have it mounted in the vent right above the stereo head unit. When it's cold out I turn the heater on and if i have it coming out of the vents my light startes going off like crazy! So I've just been putting the heat on my feet of on defrost or both, but after a while it will still let enough heat into the upper vents and warm up my light and it freaks out.

Anyone else have this problem?

Mine doesn't mind it at all...it's in the vent above the stereo in my Camaro. When I have to scrape ice off my windows in the morning I start the car and turn the defrost on full blast...then when I get in my hands are cold so I aim it out the vents at full blast while I am first driving to warm my hands up, then finally I leave it on the floor set on low to keep the car warm...but the heat has never bothered the Raptor light...maybe ask Raptor if they've seen it before?
