Seeker Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 CED 7000 gets my vote. I use it with the neck cord for both dry fire and personal range practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cworks Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) I like the pocket pro 2! Just clip it on your belt and you are good to go. The CED 7000 has a lanyard and I don't really care for the smaller screen. You can easily look down at the pocket pro and see what your times are. It has big buttons that are spaced out so you can easily see what your splits are as well. Edited September 25, 2011 by cworks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigphiltheshootist Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I have an ru ready speed timer 3000. I like it but i think other timers are more user friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepickles Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) I prefer the Pocket Pro II but I also have the CED7000. Most if not all matches I've attended use the Pocket Pro or Pocket Pro II, the buzzer is a mid pitched buzz. The CED7000 is a higher pitched beep that people with hearing loss can't make out well through their hearing protection. The Pocket Pro II has one big flaw, it only allows a single par time to be set, whereas the CED7000 can have multiples. The practical issue here is dryfire training where you might want a par time for you draw, a second for the target transition, and a third for the mag change. The CED7000 lets you train like that, where the Pocket Pro II does not. I prefer the 9v batteries on the Pocket Pro II, having to remember to charge CED7000 is a pain in the butt.

famous187 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 CED7000 is the only one i've owned but its worked great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tactica Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 CED7000 is the only one i've owned but its worked great I like this one: shootersconnectionstore.com Competition Electronics Pocket Pro II Timer Blue Part: CEI-4700 If you are unsure about which to pick up, I'd give SC a call and talk with them about the different timers. They have used a wide variety and can answer some of the more not so common questions, not to mention, give you some info you may not be thinking about if this is your first purchase. I went with blue over brown just because it's easier for me to see in the bag or if it gets dropped in the grass. For most shooters, this has it all in a compact package for a reasonable price. Shot count, split times, start time from beep to first shot, etc... works great for drills, has random beap start for USPSA, forced time limit if desired, lot of settings for dealing with echos, easily configured which is a huge bonus. What I like most is the interface is familiar, simple, and I don't need to carry the manual with me! I can navigate the screens easily, I have a battery strength indicator on screen, and numbers are easy to read while the device is light enough to wear at the range with no problems at all. 9v seems to last quite a long time with fairly regular practice use. Good luck, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leas327 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I have a ced7000 airsoft model. I like it. If I wear it on my wrist and turn up the sensitvity it can pick up the clicks when I dry fire my revolver and my 1911. It won't pick up the striker click on my Glock though. I like that I can program a multi-par and I feel the screens are easy enough to navigate through. You can turn down the buzzer volume like the regular 7000 but my wife has learned to HATE it anyways. Turns out a hundred low volume beeps coming from the basement at 6:30 in the morning work like an alarm she can't shut off. I turn the sensitivity all the way down and it works like a regular timer when I go practice. CED doesn't recommend using it for live fire but so far it has worked without a problem. I wear it on the hinged clip and hang it upsidown on my belt. I don't have a problem reading the screen but it can get the oil slick effect with a lot of direct sunlight on the screen. My friend has a pocket pro 2. He bought it because those are the timers at my local range and he wanted to use what they use. They are nice timers but the second time we used his I dropped it on the pavement and it broke. He sent it back and they charged him to fix it. LAME. I bought him some beer to make up for it.

ima45dv8 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Lame? As a control test, try dropping your 7000 on the pavement to see if it fares any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leas327 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Yeah, it was lame. Five minutes into practice and I broke the only timer we brought with us. I have dropped my 7000 the same way. It has also been knocked out of the clip when I was moving while shooting. It has a silicone skin on it that I think helps break the fall. It still works fine.

Shadyscott999 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I just ordered a Pocket Pro II. I was trying to decide between it and the CE7000. The bigger display pushed me to the PPII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
