What length of ball flight is necessary for this device to measure accurately? 10 ft? 20 ft?

5 to 10 feet at most. I use it with a 10 by 10 by 10 foot hitting cage so my ball flight is less than 9 feet. Won't pick up wedges consistently but works fine with driver irons and hybrids

It works off of doppler Radar, so last year I used it in my garage hitting into a net to get my club distances down. It was great!!! I have a laminated note strip on my bag with all the clubs I have, and they're distances! I got my distances from the ES12 in the garage, and I verified them at the range... It's great! Just take out all your Bad Shots, and your top one to get a VALID DISTANCE for each club!

Honestly not sure. I've hit short pitch shots that have recorded a reading so I would say at least 20'.

The device measures ball speed only. if you are asking, how far does it take for the device to decide the speed, i'd say 10 or less feet. I first tried it hitting into a net and I was only 10-12 feet from the back of the net. It gave me readings. It does not measure spin or launch angle. It makes an assumption of the launch angle based on the club that you enter. For example, if you enter a driver, it will assume that the ball is going to launch at an angle of 9.5 degrees. It does measure the speed that you hit the ball, not the club head speed, but the ball speed. It is highly inaccurate and a piece of junk in my estimation. I took it to the driving range and compared what the device said to my Bushnell rangefinder - a very accurate device. The ES12 was rarely correct. I returned it and would not recommend it.

the ball does not have to travel far....less than 2 feet...the unit see's it pass through the radar beam and the unit calculates the distance base on the speed determined as it passes and the anticipated launch angel of the club selected .

I am not exactly sure of the question but this thing measures in: feet and inches; feet only and meters. It's a great tool, it made my life a lot easier. Hope that covers your question.

The farthest I have tried so far is about 20 feet and it works fine at the distance. Of course, the farther the targeted area the wider the spot size being measured increases.

10ft if I remember correct but I quit using this camera because it was built a little to cheap for my needs.

approximately 20 ft - I measured it with a yard stick and got 19.5 ft.Model #9501-01

Depends on how far your comfortable taking a shot. The range finder is accurate to within a few yards. I measured it against known distances. For me I will not taken a shot longer than 300 yards.

The owners manual says it is accurate to 100' or appx. 30.5 meters. I personally have not used it for measuring that great of a distance but I can tell you it is a great tool for the price. I often work inside building with poor lighting conditions and the back lit display is great. The accuracy seems to be spot on. One of the best time saving tools I have ever purchased. I wouldn't know what to do without it!

30 feet is what is stated in the manual. I have no trouble at 20 feet, but haven't had any reason to go further to date.

Yes it will measure heights at 10 feet. When we opened packaged we turned it on and went upstairs to next level and it was amazing it measured that small of a change. We just used for science fair project and had a couple launches that looked identical from ground point of view and were measured within a few feet with altimeter ....

I use .20 gram they fly pretty straight over distances which helps with accuracy an stoping power. Think of it like if u shot a golf ball or a ping pong ball.

No idea On exactness, it's a beginner one that goes about 40 feet and not too accurate. I bought it for a 7 year old, he barely used it and I got the Mathews Genesis the next year. The Genesis will last longer and is very accurate, it was a much better fit for our "bow hunter" in training.

I would have to measure, but off hand I would say about 10 inches. It has worked very well.

The effective range for this device without any obstructions should easily reach 50ft at full strength. I have personally tested it at a range of 25ft without any interruptions in movement or degradation to it's precision.

The larger the object, the greater the detection distance, however dont go beyond 200 feet to limit errors. For smaller objects like a baseball or cricket ball, you should not go beyond 60 feet.

I got my 100' tape measure out and tested the remote for this unit. It topped out at 37'. Line of sight only. Will not go through walls or around doors.I can't explain the disparity between my range tested and Mr. Henderson's range. As well, the on and off was nearly instant the whole distance until it stopped responding completely at 37'. Either way, 22' or 37', this is a really nice piece of equipment.

Hi Frank, the cable from the shell of the controller to the tip is 10 feet.

I would estimate the wire to be about four feet. Yes, it will measure in miles for both speed and distance.
