Garmin chronograph

There’s now competition to the LabRadar.

Garmin, the first name in GPS.  Yeahhhhh.  Bad news?  It’s still $600.

I almost bought a lab radar... than I found out it only goes to 4000 fps and I need to buy a trigger for my bow or air rifle.   The Garmin unit at least goes to 5k so I can play with my 17 rem mag.

I've been dabbling with Arduino microprocessor.  Tales of my reloading counter are elsewhere.  I'm experimented out with lighting programs, clocks and counters.   I did get a rotational position indicator to experiment with the idea of knowing exact reloading press position.  Decided "nah" too much trouble to little pay back but I did learn how those work.

In the meantime I looked around http://robotshop.com thinking my next learning adventure will be with stepper motors.

All of this is to say I get targeted ads from Robot Shop now on FB.  The latest?   A complete Doppler Radar module.  Just a hair over 1" in diameter.  Make your own radar gun to suit your own purpose.  This one probably won't measure bullets at velocity, but still it's only  $34.  I'm still having trouble going from a room full of equipment for a 16bit 256K computer to a palm sized module like Arduino.  Blows my mind what's now available.
