    The problem with Skan is that they are big, not portable, cost well over £200 for the base model, and if you want to track your shots or make a graph with them via email for example then you have to start looking at the £375 model and get a laptop!

    Performance wise they are great, practicality and affordability wise they are crap, which means they are only really suitable to be kept in a fixed location and used by a club/tuner, as there are far more appropriate Chronos out there for a fraction of the money if it's just for checking your own gun now and then

    Yes understand what you say but ideally a crono is to check your power in most cases, Normally you would check the power at home , At least that way if it's over you can rectify it, If someone wanted a portable one I would say look at something different, Myself at just over £200 I would not look at anything else around the £150 price range , It would not make sence unless obviously wanting to go portable for some reason, The skan normally sell around the £150 second hand so you won't loose a great lot of cash a few years later, I'm thinking of base use and your thinking of portable use, Depends what the buyer wants will be the deciding factor,

    I've got a Skan, a Combro, an LMBR and until recently a Caldwell. I only ever use the LMBR.
