Best State-of-the-Art Chronograph- non-muzzle mount

The app didn't capture them and when I took the Memory card and put it in my computer to download the files, it was blank. Prior to using the memory card I reformatted.

I get that it wasn't shown in the app, were the shots captured and shown on the labradar screen? And to be completely clear, did you have a known working memory card in the labradar itself? I never have used the app for anything but looking at shot strings, changing settings on labradar, and arming/disarming. I always have a card in the labradar itself and if I want the details to load into a spreadsheet I get them off the card in the labradar. I honestly don't even know if they can be saved on a phone/tablet, seems it should be possible, but I never tried or cared since all the data is on the card in the labradar itself. I do know if I have shot several different strings, the app reads them from the labradar when I switch between strings in the app and not from any temporary storage on my old phone I use to control it.

The memory card was working prior to using the updated app. I had reformatted the memory card to exFAT. I updated the the Labradar and the app. Fired them up using my phone and was able to connect to the Labradar using Bluetooth. Couple days later go to test my Redwolf with the newly installed Heliboard. Around 50 shots, the Labradar had the memory card inserted. I could see the shots showing up on the display on the Labradar but the display on the tablet with the updated app on it wasn't changing.

I'll reformat the memory card back to FAT and do a couple more attempts. The tablet was able to make changes to the setup and arm and disarm the unit, which was very handy.

Labradar manual clearly states cards must be formatted FAT 32. I've never tried using mine with a non-functioning card in it, formatted exFAT it is non-functioning, so I have no idea if that prevented app from getting the data from labradar. I have used mine with no card in the labradar and the app showed the velocities as I shot, of course no saved data that way. Maybe having a "bad" card in the labradar confuses it.

forgot to mention, don't know why but they stress doing a full format of card in FAT 32, not a fast format on the support page.

I'll reformat to FAT32 and try again. Should know later today.

I use this https://magnetospeed.com/products-v3-ballistic-chronograph.
Works very well on all my PB and air guns/pistols, BB gun etc.

I have made several different inserts to fit certain rifles with muzzle brakes,
works day or night, inside or outside a building and does NOT require any over head lighting system to work.

I also found out that by using 2 thin flat magnets placed over the magnets in the baronet, that 17 cal air rifle pellets will reliably be picked up and read.

I just haven't found a way yet, to attach to my wrist rockets...........LOL

I can only concur with Nvreloader, except for wrist rocket part....

I have a Delta Wolf to compare speeds with and every shot , about 30 in 177 showed a two ft/sec difference in speed. I put it down to either calibration or the fact that the V3 picks up the pellets speed within 10 inches of the front of barrel as opposed to the DW which, of course registers speed a foot or so sooner.

I have checked my V-3 against 2 of my Oehlers and they all are with in 5-6' of each other.
YMMV
