When it comes to
cheap radar guns, one of the common questions is whether the
Bushnell Radar Gun is worth the expenditure. Most consumers who buy the
Velocity, or any
inexpensive radar gun, expect precise accuracy and all-around application. What we tell all of our consumers is to be realistic. No other
radar gun can match the utility and price like the Bushnell Velocity radar gun.
Bushnell Velocity radar operates in a continuous mode which means it displays the current speed of the target you are measuring and has the capability to lock in the peak speed (known as the fastest speed). The Velocity is a lot of value for the price!
The
Velocity radar doesn't measure up in quality to those used by the police, but it gets the job done when it comes to the following applications:
- Little League
- Middle School
- Recreational Sports (T-Ball, etc)
- Motor sports where price is the factor not professional grade
- Neighborhood Watch (timing speed of passing vehicles)
Remember this when thinking of buying a radar gun: Bushnell Radar Guns like the
Velocity and the
Speedster are the most practical RADARs for the majority of users. These
radar guns are versatile units that show continuous speed and lock-in peak speed on the display.
Just for the record, the new Velocity radar gun model can calculate speed both in MPH (miles per hour) and KPH (kilometers per hour). Kudos to
Bushnell for the upgrade.
