N/A Digital/Electronic PCPs - Brands besides Daystate and Skout?

[Ultralight]

I'm starting to read on PCPs that are digitally controlled. Currenty I know of two companies - Daystate and Skout.

What are the other brands? I'd love to read-up on these.

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know those are the only 2.

Thanks. I thought I came across a post mentioning yet another maker but I do not recall. Thanks for the info.

Doesn't the Thomas have an electronic trigger option?

Having had a few of the daystate electric rifles...they work great. Don't be worried about the electronics failing if they get wet. Don't soak them, but they won't fry in normal rain and hunting scenarios.

Thanks. I was noodling along a few days ago and came across a Daystate Delta Wolf video where one can just dial in the pellet weight, and desired FPS on the screen, and the gun adjusts to that power with a few shots. B.L.E.W. M.Y. M.I.N.D!!

I've always thought that an ideal PCP is one where one can tune power precisely at the drop of a hat without having to turn this or turn that and then chrono over a string. Repeat. Until one gets to the power one wants. This allows one to practice indoors at 10 meters with lightweight target pellets, go to 30 meters outdoors, and then pest control at 100 yards with JSB heavy pellets. With a digital scope like the DNT Zulus, where one can preprogram up to five pellet and speed configurations, one can just use one gun in all scenarios and make adjustments in a couple of minutes.

Can the Daystate Alpha or Delta wolf do this? Or is the adjustment range above too great, and one has to deal with adjusting the regulator pressure?

Anyways, I'm going off topic here...but it is my thread, so I'm taking liberties. LOL!

I feel I need to state my opinion here. Electronics are not sustainable. We see it everywhere and in every product that used electronics. These components do not remain available for very long before they are superseded by new ones. This makes existing products effectively disposable simply because they cannot be repaired after component failure. We do not have chip factories in workshops or garages. Making anything that cannot be repaired has no resale value. Everything mechanical can be repaired for 100 years or more. It's your money. Do what you want with it.

Your assumptions on adjustability are impractical. It takes time to achieve accuracy. Adjusting these guns in anyway forces the entire process o start again. It is not like hitting a light switch you know..

Electronic components are always replaceable, it's just a circuit which any competent professional or ammeter electronics engineer could fix,
as for accuracy, I can switch between two different pellet weights and because I know my aim points, the accuracy doesn't change.

Of course they are not. Once demand falls, the factory retools the production line. Availability goes away once premade shelf stock is depleted. Factory retooling rarely occurs. It is simply too expensive for the available market.
