- 1x 9 Volt batteries required (best with Polaroid 9 Volt batteries), Color is Blue ,configuartions of display ,automatic power turn down after 10 minutes of inactivity large clothespin style belt clip
- Make sure you are using alkaline batteries. After 10 minutes, if no shots are detected and no buttons are pressed, the timer will power down automatically. To wake up the timer, press the SET/ON button
- The timer can store up to 99 shots for a given timing cycle. Subsequent shots will be stored by overwriting the previous value of shot 99. Shot sensitivity is settable from the SHOT SENSITIVITY screen.
- Increase the value for greater sensitivity decrease it for less sensitivity. To reset factory default values, remove the battery, then hold down the “Start” button and reinstall the battery.
- Look at the display to see the message “INIT N/V MEMORY.” Now release the start button. The maximum timing period is limited to 199.9 seconds. Shots recorded after this will reflect the wrapped time.
- The Pocket Pro II measures internally to a resolution of 1 mSec, but shot displays, splits, etc. are internally rounded to the nearest 10 mSec.
- For this reason, RPM readings may appear to be inaccurate when manually calculated using the displayed shot string values. In reality, the RPM reading is actually more accurate than the manual calculation
- since it is calculated using the internal shot times, which are measured with 1mSec resolution Should only be used in temperatures between 32110 degrees Fahrenheit, each Pocket Pro II If the above information does not address the issue

I purchased this timer to replace my old pact timer as it was not meant to be adjusted for sensitivity and had no setting for a ‘dead time’ after a shot was registered the way this one does (you can set anywhere from about 0.01 to 0.14, I think it is, after recording a shot where the timer will not record another shot). Those features combined make this timer work much more consistently for me while indoors, and indoors with other shooters present.
You can’t use it while people are shooting close by and have it know what shots are yours of course, but it doesn’t record echoes, which I swear my other timer did, and you can set the sensitivity pretty quickly and easily using the menu system, such that, at an indoor range, you may be able to record your shot string but the guy with a pistol 6 lanes down won’t show up at all, even if you have a hard time doing your timed stuff while the other guy is not shooting

I bought two, one for myself in Grey and another in Blue as a gift for a friend. for some reason mine drains batteries within a day. His has been going on the same battery for over a year. Mine stopped working completely, mine still has the belt clip. his belt clip is broken. I really would not recommend these..

I received my Pocket Pro II today and after approximately 15 minutes of usage and figuring out how it works, the display went out. I’m not sure if I got a bad one or if this is a common issue. I will be exchanging for another one, but so far I’m not impressed especially considering the cost of it.

You will set the unit up, check the screens and so on, has date and time for no reason (read on) and then tap the start to get a BEEP that can be set to immediate, or random and so forth, all good so far. Now say you take two quick shots at the sound of the beep. It will display the time to the first shot and the time to the second shot. You can review that on the screen. Now if you tap the start to get the BEEP again, you have just wiped out the previous record. The unit claims it has a 99 shot record – well, yes, but only if you keep shooting – who does that? It is useless for tracking your progress or lack thereof – unless you want to stop after each shot string, record the information manually and then go at it again. Why it would have the date and time makes little sense – there are no download capabilities with the unit, no USB port and the memory is wiped every time you tap the timer so what’s the point. The product does what it says but that ain’t much.

I bougt this clock back in June of 2017. I’m an instructor, and I average 60-80 students a week, about forty weeks a year. This thing gets a ton of use and has not let me down yet. Tracking split times, and shot counts are as easy as clicking one button, and it is customizable in a number of ways. It also has a delay function which will randomly start the time so you can train by yourself if you are alone, which is very useful. Again, I use mine a TON and the battery life is still pretty impressive. I have used other clocks that were far more expensive, and I am usually a “you get what you pay for” kind of person, but these are absolutely perfect, and would highly recommend it to anybody.
No that I would change my rating, but I do wish I could have ordered one in the coyote color, if anything to help me distinguish mine from the other instructors but its not a huge deal!

Replaced a good old RUReady Speed Timer 3000 that was starting to show odd behavior..
Pocket Pro II runs from a standard 9V battery. I didn’t get the CED7000 because of the proprietary lithium battery and wanted something easy to replace.
Belt clip looks well built (I broke the one on the ST3000): spring steel and nice strong plastic clip. Overall what appears to be a strong product that will survive bumping into tables, and other range equipment.
Offers the features you’d expect: timing (obviously), par-time, and an RPM feature (for NFA Title II toys owners!).
Haven’t fiddled with sensitivity setting or echo-cancellation. Defaults seemed sane for my indoor range.
Beep level is adjustable for dry practice at home.
Start signal can go off right when you press the start button (RO), or delayed (random or fixed delay) when practicing on your own.
Backlit LCD is nice upgrade, when shooting in low light.
Only downside: bulkier than the ST3000 (hence 4 stars out of 5). At least you’ll have to try hard to misplace it!
Has more features and display mode than the ST3000 and as such has more buttons. After a quick read of the manual, you’re good to go. This isn’t rocket surgery.

This product was great straight out of the box. It was easy to set up (I immediately wanted random start beeps and needed a higher sound sensitivity) which made my time out with it a breeze.
To say that this improved my speed would be an understatement. If you use this timer right, you can figure out how you’re losing tenths of seconds and get real-time feedback on whether your corrections are working. I am disappointed I waited to buy one!

This is valuable and useful tool for live and dry fire practice. I use if for dry fire practice of my appendix draw stroke. The par time feature allows you program both a random delay to the first beep, and a second beep at the interval of your choice. Combine use of this timer with self video of your draw stroke (on a cell phone) (plus the slow motion feature on the cell phone) and both your technique & speed will improve.
Both of my pistol instructors recommended a shot timer. Obviously a shot timer is for self defense training or competition.
So, my advice is first, get a qualified instructor, and then get this shot timer!
