“Combro 625 not working on the sun light and brake...”

Written on: 16/08/2011


Hello,
1. Problem: Combro 625 is made from transparent dark or blue plastic. Because during the day the sun light outside is much more stronger then diode light inside (also in the shadows) -> measuring doesn't work (work only inside), to correct this problem you need to cover upper part with black tape.

2. Problem: Mechanically after 1 shot with 16J gun brake holder between the barrel and front part with computer and display via back kick of the gun (tested with Hatsan 55S)

Conclussion: Combro 625 is possible to use only for CO2 or PCP guns withot back kick. Is it possible to use it at home in the room not outside (outside only with black tape which cover diods from the sun light)

I have a BSA Lightning XL 2.2 (11.98 Ftp) with "Bisley Premeir" 17.5 grain pellets.
I found the "Combro" a very poor buy.
The plastic v rest was out of line with the rest of the device, also it is very brittle plastic the mount point shattered with the 5th shot and as such would not reccomend this device to anyone.

Wrong, I have checked the power of my 60S with a 625 mark 4, as well as an HW95S, TX200, Meteor Mark IV, Condor 25D, Airsporter and Mercury, at power levels from 8 to 16 joules! No breaks.

The Case is not made from transparent plastic.

I have used mine outdoors, with sunlight above me, behind me, to the left and to the right, it does not matter what position the sun is in, it works.

It seems that you could not be bothered to align the Combro correctly which will account for you breaking it and getting bad readings. try reading the instructions and operating it properly!
