I've had one around 4 years, It does what I need it to do batteries will last forever as long as you don't use the backlight

I don't have one(yet),but it came highly recomended to me by one of the people I was talking to about dyno calibrations.It is supposed to be one of the best deals out there I was told as far as accuracy and price goes.

Thats why I went with a TAG unit... after a few runs
I can ask it to predict my next pass without doing
anything and the more passes in it the more accurate
it is... to within thousands

Me too Mr.P I use the TAG and do the same thing.
Unfortunately I heard they are going out of business or not making the TAG anymore and not servicing them.

I still write it down in a log book and use it as a
reference and back up but mainly use the TAG ....
much faster than looking for a similar run

I love my Altronics trailer mounted system. I use it with Crewchief Pro 7.0 for data capture and it is also pager ready. Not cheap, but helps you go rounds if you can trust the data.

Spend the extra $30 and get the one with grains of water. Best bang for the buck in a pocket station, they work great.

Altronics sells an ET predictor that you can log the data from your Kestrel into...it's like $160...I've won alot of rounds when I do what it tells me...

I'm looking at this to use with my predictor...I'm not really a fan of the all in one handheld units. If not used properly IE: carried to the lanes in your hot sweaty hands down by the hot ashphalt and exhaust....they can give false readings IMHO.
