I have a CED Millennium chronograph that I've tried to use off an on throughout the years, and I've never been able to develop a knack for getting it to reliably work whenever I want it to.
Tonight, I had it at the indoor range, with plenty of light (two bulbs almost directly overhead). It wouldn't pick up anything I was shooting. Ideas? |

You ideally need natural light. Indoor lighting will mess with the sensors, something to do with the hertz of the electricity and bulb used. I see my green Chrony go whacko (display runs wild numbers) when I turn it in the house or garage, but settle to zero when I aim the sensors out to the sky.
Something I like to do is set my chrony in the shade,,, but the sensors have clear blue sky above, and try to use 10-15 ft from muzzle to entrance of sensors, and shoot straight through. |

I have the same CED and I rarely have issues with it. Passing clouds, fading evening light, and flying pests are my greatest nemisis. That and short life of 9V battery. I always use the white diffusers over mine though. What about using it indoors? They sell special lights for indoors for a reason. I just bought the CED, but it's been to damn cold to use it. CED |
