jswitt99 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I have read through the old sticky timer thread and searched for both timer and chrono threads, but I have a few questions I couldn't find or seemed outdated: Looks like the Pocket Pro II will work for me. Do the new versions or the CED7000 pick up dry fire or airsoft or is the par timer function still the answer here? Do any of the Chorno's interface with Ipad? Thanks.

donbryant993 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I will be following this thread, I have the exact same questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Don't know or care about your Ipad question. I use the PPII timer and it is great. The only thing some will see as a drawback is it's size. It is perfect for matches but some seem to like the smaller 7000 for practice. I just clip it to my pocket and don't even notice it's there. I like the fact that it is a much lower frequency beep(almost a buzz) compared to other timers such as the 7000. I have RO'g older guys like myself that could not hear the 7000 but can hear the PP just fine. The PPII is hard to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmerritt Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I have a 7000, that i have used in our club matches, works great, had a problem with it and ced replaced it (it was a few months out of warrenty), but i will be getting a few PPII for our club, a little bigger, replaceable battery, louder. not as easy to misplace.

LPatterson Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I love my CED7000 so much that I have 2 of them, 1 has a wrist strap the other a belt clip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jswitt99 Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 so why am I following you on cheely, ppII and pro chrono Mr. techno? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Service Desk Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 CED 8000 is a good option - much easier to read the display and the buzzer seems louder than the 7000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokken Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 So far I like my CED7000, works great indoors and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbear Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like my pocket pro ii. I hang it off my pocket and i can read the display plus its what my club uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acekc Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I'm unaware of any chrono that interfaces with an iPad. Unless the chrono had Wifi (again, don't know of any) then as far as I know the manufacturer would have to produce a custom hardware piece to plug into the dock connector, which I believe requires paying Apple licensing fees and getting approval from them. Given the size of the market for such a thing I doubt any manufacturers would bother. The Pro Chrono Digital can be connected to a Windows laptop via an optional USB interface. Software included with the USB dongle lets you control the chrono remotely using a long cable. You can also download the data out of the chrono and save it to a CSV. This is how I run my chrono and I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heckler Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I have used my CED7000 for about 2 years and it has worked flawlessly. It will pick up most airsoft, just set the sensitivity to the highest setting. Don't forget to move it back down before cutting loose with an open gun. For dry fire you will be using par time.

jswitt99 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thanks for all the responses. I also got a new laptop, so I will just use pc interface and leave iPad at home. So no one has had luck getting the pocket pro to respond with air soft? That was what I wanted, but ced7000 will work fine if it works with an airsoft.

jswitt99 Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 I usually think I am fairly bright. I won't claim smart, but I can usually figure out how stuff works... That being said, I feel like a monkey doing string theories trying to figure out how the lanyard attaches to the ced7000. The small string with the detachable button has me scratching a hole in my head. Can someone point out whatever it is I am missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob DuBois Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I have a CE Pocket Pro 2, the indoor league I shoot in purchased a CED 7000 after my PP hit the floor a few times. Wish I had bought the CED 7000 for myself and will shortly. More features, louder buzzer and I like I can drop it in my shirt pocket when scoring targets. Both have been back for repair and service was great on both products. I have a CE chrono and it has given excellent service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insert the tip of the small string through the hole, then pass the lanyard through the opening of the small string. http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL15/946380/22054829/365437419.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
