LMBR Chrono VS Aliexpress HT-X3006

[MJMDP]

So, I have got for some years now an HT-X3006 chrono that I bought cheap from aliexpress. Its served its porpouse and the measurements make sense with what I know of the guns and the results I have. It seems to be somewhat consistent.
The thing is, there isnt really a way to know if the results are correct and this kind of chronos are not really convenient to use.

Mundilar has the LMBR chrono in stock now and the prices are okay. I dont really want to spend doppler money on a chrono. I only use it to somewhat tune my airguns.
Do you guys think the LMBR chrono is much better the the cheap aliexpress that I have?

I’ve got 3 kinds of very cheap Aliexpress chronographs and an old Shooting Chrony.
All the speeds are consistent with each other. I bought the Ali ones because the Chrony
wouldnt work indoors.
Now I pretty much just use this

I bought ('cause it was soo cheap) the model shown above. I have compared this to an ancient CE pro chrono, a very tired Chrony "master beta" (!!) and, when I get ambitious, a Lab Radar.

Between 500fps (I shoot Olympic) and 950fps, all are within 7fps of each other. This utterly amazed me (have you $een what Lab Radar co$t$?).

The chrony is very problematic with natural lighting and really works best with a light kit. The Pro Chrono is very good, but the light kit runs on AC so you may need to build a battery powered source or use a power bank/inverter. It's OK outdoors w/o lighting kit. The Aliexpress has the worst Chinglish effort at instructions. Just punch buttons until you either beat it to pieces or figure it out. But the stupid thing works, and the lighting is battery powered.

I am a bit embarrassed to admit the above, but if it saves someone some money....
