What does 100 degrees detection angle mean?

360 degrees is a full circle, 180 is 1/2, so 100 degrees is a portion of that circle. Think of a "wide" triangle within a 1/2 circle.

I'm not good with geometry, but I'll try to answes. Think of a circle having 360 degrees,thus 180 in a half circle. 100 degrees is the size of a goof sized slice if pie.

Yes, the digits are very clear at angles as far as 70 degrees or more off axis, left or right, up or down. Chef Amori

Hi there, This sensor features a 60 degree viewing radius from dead center. The field of coverage will increase the farther you are from the sensor (Up to 39 ft.) but the sensor is designed monitor small areas 10 to 20 feet from the sensing eye (so as to minimize false alerts). In other words there is very little peripheral vision the sensor offers.

Minute of angle. In other words the red dot is smaller and would give you a tighter group at 100 yards. An 8moa dot is bigger then a 4moa dot.

I believe the viewing angle is 76 degrees through my limited search on the internet

In this model the numbers showing the degrees of the angle are etched into the metal. I believe the other model you are looking into it is just a sticker which, to my knowledge, can be off when applied to the device.

Is the 5 there when you zero it? Mine has the 5 too, but only when the measurement is between tenths which is quite often as that is a very small amount and the device is very sensitive. It means 5/100 of a degree or 1.05 for 1 and 5/100 of a degree. The specs say its resolution is 0.05 degrees. So it would not measure 0.04 or 0.06, just increments 0.05.

I don't have a protractor with me, but it looks like 105 or 110 degrees. A little past vertical or 90 degrees.

The read out goes to 180 degrees. I have never needed a full 360 degree measure, but since it does go to 180 degrees, the other half of the circle would just fall into place. I use mine all the time. It really takes all the guess work away.

Mine came with the 200 degree sensor, as the STL200 should. The "Product Features" bullet point is a typo and the correct 200 degree range is listed several times on the product page.

You don't need to be using precision instruments to measure the exact angle at which the SS has been positioned, if that is what you mean, but it is definitely sensitive and if you happen to have some rotation (can happen if for example you have tried to twist it into position instead of clipping it right from the get go), then your data will become inaccurate/useless or the system won't even record data because it does not recognize it. From my experience, visual adjustment is more than enough but needs to be done conscientiously.

I don't remember what the description said, but I believe you are right about the 180 degree view. It does give a somewhat panoramic view which may give a perceived 290 view.

By what I can see, the angle is very close to 30 degrees (the angle of three points comes real close to 90).......certainly closer to 30 than 23 degrees. Maybe a little less than 30, but nowhere as small as 23.....hope this helps some.....best, Rick.

Yes that is uncommon. I believe the scope is 3 MOA,( 3minutes of angle. ) This means when the red dot is put on target at 100 yards you should be within 3 inches of where you aimed.

Its quite a wide angle..not sure what degree. But if u want to use this at night. Get one with more inferred

The light angle is at least 150 degrees although not as bright at the edge.

Yes, the detector gives different sounding codes based on the type of 'radar' being utilized. There's also a voice recorded in the unit to tell you what it is. So you'll get something like "beep, beep, beep, K-Band" or "... X-Band" or "KA-band" or "Laser Alert". It is, to my knowledge and from my experience with the device, 360 degrees of detection with the possible exception of laser. I think the laser is somewhat limited to a wide front angle and a wide rear angle. Obviously since laser is a light-based wave, the side of the car may be interfering with the device's ability to sense it. I hope this was useful.
