Common questions
Will I run out quickly?
Usually no. Normal competitive usage is covered well by plan allocations. If you are running very heavy investigations every day, cheap refills are available starting around $1.
Do binoculars expire?
No. Unused binoculars stay on your account.
Why not make everything unlimited?
Unlimited heavy pulls sounds good but hurts platform speed when abused. Binoculars keep RustWho responsive and fair under high load.
