I have both a CED7000 and a Pact Club timer, I have burned through 3 or so CED, I don't know why they keep crapping out on me. I haven't had any issues with the Pact yet. The features on the CED are better. The one key feature is that it saves the data, so say a shooter shoots a stage in 32s, and then I shoot it in 18s, when that shooters complains that something was wrong with the timer, you can go back and show him the time and the # of shots. The feature it is lacking is it won't prevent a grown man from crying about the time and then someone gives him a reshoot...... this is just a hypothetical situation
