How accurate is this device?
826466
It will give you very accurate reads on ball speed and distance. Great for determining your average distances for each club.

I think it gives an accurate reading on how far the ball flies ,, the readings with the driver estimate roll so not as acurate

Remember that this device calculates distance based on ball speed and trajectory (launch angle) through the use of doppler radar. The launch angle is pre-determined by inputting tour club selection (trajectory if loft angle of thr club) so if you typically have a lower or higher ball flight, then this is not very accurate at all. In fact, no one has the same trajectory everytime they hit a ball, so my answer is no...not very accurate. I sold mine and bought a laser. I get much more use out of a laser, especially on the course. True launch monitors, like Trackman, calculate distance using true ball speed, trajectory, and spin. You cannot get feedback like that out of a $200 device. Remember that this device calculates distance based on ball speed and trajectory (launch angle) through the use of doppler radar.

I find it quite accurate as an average for each club. Before finalizing a range session, delete the aberrational shots.

I have never checked it but my gut says it is fairly accurate. I have found that when the battery gets low it starts giving bad results.... It has an auto shut off but go ahead and turn if off your self to save the battery.

Just got mine a year ago. It is very accurate within it's stated variables. I have two friends with iphones- they are all over the area while my eTrex 20 usually takes me very close, if not right to, the cache. Two thumbs up!!

Yes, I had no problem with it being accurate. I do a lot of country road running and I have tracked it in my car the miles are the same. :)

Seems to be pretty accurate.It will depend a lot on the preferances you enter on your gps.

It wouldn't be 100% accurate, but close. My guess is the reading would be about 25-50% low.

Not accurately. Your phone must have GPS capability for it to work. It bases it off of your cars weight, engine size and engine RPM, and your speed according to your phones GPS. Even with that information it still isn't very accurate. However it is a VERY awesome and handy device! I love it!

I believe so, Lonnie, but, as I had mentioned in the review, it's *extremely* inaccurate (+/- 18 minutes a year and Honeywell thinks it's acceptable). Given the choice, I'd buy anything else on the market. I'm stuck with this and not happy about it and Honeywell's customer service left much to be desired. Good luck!

There are 3 different reference levels(calculations) that this meter can do. The meter is accurate within what it cam measure. Read the manual on what the meter uses and what uther things can throw off the readings. I have found to to be pretty good meter myself.

All of these meters can give wrong readings. Today my Bayer USB told me my sugar was 0.9!! Tested again immediately and got 5.3. I think the Verio is as accurate as the average meter, unless you have a faulty meter.

Yes, in as much as the built in altimeter is accurate. This is old tech, newer companies offer better products an besides, much, much more importantly other companies may offer better support. From first hand experience, Fitbit customer service is atrocious, and that is very generous!!

I have not checked its accuracy against other thermometers. I do know the unit functions well and i have had no issues with it. I use it to switch on and off an incondesant light bulb that heats a small space where a control unit for a lumber kiln is. The manufacturer recommends that it not be exposed to temperatures less than 40 degrees. So right now, it is not doing anything but reading a fairly high temp and keeping the circuit open.

I wish I could sincerely answer your question. This device has not been the best so far. Constant calibration and off results. I would suggest investing a little bit more money on a better scale.

I am an RN and I bought this for my aging parents. From what I can determine, I tested it before I gave it to them it was accurate. I bought one for myself, another brand and it read the same so that is what I can tell you.

It's accurate enough. Sometimes it is .1 g off, but usually pretty accurate.
107088
Yes. And it pretty accurate. I've tried two different thermometers and the ridings was the same

No. I have not found this meter to be very accurate. The Accutrend Plus seems to be more accurate.

This unit is pretty innacurate. It will give different readings (upto 30mb) if you don't position it exactly the same way each time, and will also give inconsistent readings (upto 15mb) if you takes consecutive readings without adjusting it at all.
