How long does the battery last?
The internal rechargeable battery provides up to 6 hours of use or approximately 2,000 shots per charge.

Can I delete or exclude bad shots from my data?
Yes, individual shots can be deleted or excluded from averages and standard deviation calculations directly on the device or via the app.

Does it calculate advanced shooting metrics automatically?
Yes, it calculates key values such as averages, extreme spread, standard deviation, kinetic energy and power factor.

What mounting options are available?
It supports both rifle mounting and standard tripods using a ¼-20 thread, offering flexible setup options.

Is it easy to read outdoors?
Yes, the sunlight-visible transflective display is designed for clear visibility in bright outdoor conditions.
