Takes optional rechargeable batteries and charges through a USB port now.

[Catman]

Charges through USB port...but doesn't have the ability to pass data to a computer?

You'd think they'd have corrected the typo on V2 Looks better in black though

[Daemondog]

I agree with Catman. That's kinda lame to have a USB port built in with no data exchange feature.

[Punkypink]

Do'oh...

[Utty]

Uh, does it really matter what type of cable it is, as long's it charges? Cmon people. It only makes it more convenient for those with USB chargers. Don't have one? Recharge from your comp, or just stick in fresh batteries.

YA BUT WE WNATS DATA TRASNFERSR

well that's just too bad.

Why do you need data transfer to your PC?
If you want statistics, write down the results and create an Excel sheet.

you forget one thing, airsofters are terminally lazy!

Thats actually pretty useful. 5v is easy to get from most car chargers and even make your own using a few 1.5v dry cell batteries. I'm sure 4.5v of power would charge that, or at least an emergency power up for when a chrono calls.

How could you capture on a pad and paper all the data for a full auto burst getting every shot fps/ms/joule and time between shots? Besides I'm lazy I can't be bothered writing out 20 lines then inputting them into my computer If there's a lead that plugs into my computer I'm going to expect it to pipe data down as well as charge up the battery.

Sure it's a nice to charge off a computer and for some it'd be somewhat handy but to me it looks like they wanted to pipe data out the chrono but then decided it was too much effort/cost to put in resulting in this "feature".

[minimiman]

errr, i just don't get it.

the Madbull chrono was already a cracking bit of kit and the battery lasts for ages, probably 6 months at least. Why complicate something that is already very good, obviously up the price as rechargabe batteries and the lead are more expensive then not put in a feature of data transfer that would warrant an upgrade.

The black is also harder to see, so although it looks gucci and cool, as far as function goes it's worse.

I want BT connection on the next one
