Thanks for the offer but I've decided to go ahead with the LMBR RA2 out of Poland.  Just working through the remote purchasing process at the moment.

That's interesting, I didn't know about the blue tooth adapter, cool.

This one comes with a bluetooth adaptor. No shipping specified so I'm just waiting on a response.

Yep, buying new stuff is fun - I've been into this for less than a year and have just ordered my 4th PCP!  I'm addicted, and a very long way down that rabbit hole I was warned about....

The other things I like about it is it uses 2 x AA batteries, but 12v DC input plug too, and it has the female threaded base for mounting on a bi pod.

But exciting. Love it when people buy stuff.

This is the same as mine. And I think it's direct from manufacturer. Hopefully that  address gets you to it.  It's the R2A model I have.

Which model Pauly? I see there are several including a small fully enclosed R2 airgun only unit and a larger R2A model.

Thanks nunga, that's the sort of advice I was hoping for.  Would you go for the Prochrono that jwabfrog has recommended above or the Polish one that Pauly is using?
