[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 2371808, member: 87371"] Battery life is one big issue with the Labradar. I tried an external battery pack but had issues with the connector -- if it wasn't aligned just right, the unit would lose power just when I needed it. I finally went with inexpensive AA rechargeable. batteries that I recharge after every range session. no more powering down during a range session. I also got an external trigger. Only complaint with that is that if I operate the bolt fast and hard, it triggers the unit and I get a message that it could not track the bullet. Of course it couldn't -- I hadn't shot, just racked the bolt fast enough the trigger thought it sensed recoil. Bottom line is, I use it. In the days I was using a Shooting Chrony at a public range, I had to get everyone's cooperation for 5-10 minutes while I set it up and aligned it. that was a PITA, and I often didn't bother to set up. The Labradar has fixed that problem. I can now set it up while the range is hot. [/QUOTE]
