Dick Ozinga Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 (edited) During my last trip to the range to test some ammo, I brought the chrony to meausure it. As this was an indoor range I had to bring the light fixtures and extension cord and an additional 20min to get everything installed:) Does anyone know of an alternative for the bulbs and extension cord to override the TL light flickering? I believe CED sells an IR light source that runs on batteries? Did anyone use his or her electrical engineering skills to build such a device. TIA, Dick Edited August 19, 2007 by Dick Ozinga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoshidaex Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 you could probably make the CED kit or the PACT kit to work with the chrono you have. Not sure if the PACT kit is battery powered though. My CED kit for my CED chrono works great. Make sure you shield the sensors from any fluorescent light.

JThompson Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 We use two halo lights about 6ft above it and remove the screens. Then we shut off the flor lights to keep the 60hz from screwing with it... works like a champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PACT isn't battery operated BUT I made a battery power unit by using a latern battery, cables, 2 plugs and 2 alligator clips. I got this from the tech at PACT.

boz1911 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Misunderstood the thread, I was going to tell you about actually shooting the chrono! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Ozinga Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 Thanks for the tips, getting new IR lights will probably cost more than the Chrono cost me:) DIY-ing some ir lights will take too long. For now I'll go to outside ranges. Regards, Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
