[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 384634, member: 4191"] I've not owned any of the models you included in your post, but from what I've read about those models, none of them may sufficiently meet your criteria of works & dependable. Depending on what you mean by work. I purchased a used Oehler 33 about 3 years ago for $75 and it does work dependably, but not certain you'll be able to find a used Oehler at that kind of a price any longer. But my buddy picked one up at a garage sale recently for about $110. They do still show up every now and then. About two years ago I picked up a used PACT Pro and now run it in tandem with my Oehler 33. The PACT works well also under good lighting conditions, but not as reliably as the Oehler 33 under marginal lighting conditions. The Oehler 33 keeps chugging along well after the PACT pukes out. The Oehler also provides less variable velocity data in direct comparison to the PACT in fading light. I know - not relevant to the models you're shopping for. Hopefully, others that own one of the units you've been researching will sound in. [/QUOTE]
