Athlon Rangecraft indoor use.

[Wilber]

I am looking into buying a new chronograph. I use them alot in my basement and want to see how the Rangecraft functions indoors.
Thanks

Mine works fine in my basement and I have old fluorescent tube lighting.
I was at the state range a couple days ago. Had zero problems with it. This thing is great, hasn't missed a shot yet.

Mike,
Thanks for your input, I haven't heard much negativity on the unit

Just to clarify, light has no bearing on radar chronos.

No kidding

I was worried about household items deflecting the signal.

I use the garmin xero, athlon rangecraft, and original labradar in my 7 yard garage. The garmin and athlon are not affected by stuff in the garage. The labradar did not display velocity with error message about failing to calculate ( with range settings a 2,3,4,5,6 yards - trigger mode ). Once I brought the labradar outside to 10 meters in backyard, the unit started to work again. Pellet size -.177 7.5 grain travelling ~500fps. Its amazing what a few years can do in terms of size and speed of calculation.
