    Nice, that's even the same chrony I have! Thanks Bill
    My wife packed my bags and threw me out, as I was walking out the door, she told me "I hope you have a long and miserable life!"... To which I replied "Oh, now you want me to stay?!" LOL

    Another idea that works. Got a 6 pack of those for $5 on the mark down isle at WalMart. Have a couple bigger ones just in case the lights go out, like the other night. I really hate the color of light though, same for the newer car headlights.

    We've used flashlights, pen lights, those flexible nightstand lights where electrical outlets are available (1 will do). One guy has two of those snake lights the aluminum rods.
    At the shop we have the Cool Start fluorescent lights that don't seen to effect either the Pro Chrony or my Shooting Chrony.

    First I need a $130 for a chronograph, then I need $10. Very cool idea. I will tell the nerds @ Cabela's as there chrono won't work w/ the fluorescent lights.

    Great idea, if you have a couple of bad tweeters laying around you can get the magnets from them. I am an old rocker so I usually have some blown speakers laying around.

    Well guys I went on eBay and got 2 sylvania dot lights (swivel heads). I used the Velcro that came with them and stuck them on. I aimed the lights directly over the sensors. Testing it it works great. Gonna double check it, outdoors and inside.
