I bought this chronograph about two years ago and it has giving me more error messages then anything. I just loaded 20 rounds and shot through it and only one actual reading came up. Is this thing a piece of shit or what am I doing wrong? Before I bought this one I borrowed a friends chronograph I can't remember the name of it. It was the cheapest one out there and that thing read everytime. I thought this one was going to be better but I was wrong. Iv tried mine with and without the screens, with clear skys and cloudy. Between 8' to 14'. Whats going on? Thanks
Funny you should mention this, as I have a 15 year old Model 1 and it's been pretty stable for the most part. I have noticed that over the last year, it's been problematic, picking up the shooter's shots to my left, on three consecutive sessions, being more finicky on placement and Tuesday I had only 12 shots out of 65 picked up in sunny and overcast weather. I took the older style sensors apart and cleaned the two prisms with a plastic polish, as they were hazy/dirty to a small extent.
I called PACT Wednesday and the guy said I could send it and the sensors in, along with a check for $14.95 and they'd go through it. I was thinking that they might just send me a new XP with the new generation sensors, as that's probably a cheaper way to go for them, but I don't know...I'll take it out once more and see how it does.
I have two friends that bought CED M.2s in the early part of this year and last year and both crapped out on them in the first few sessions, although CED did make good on both.
Shit happens.
