Review on Sig Sauer Kilo2400ABS Digital Ballistic Laser Rangefinder by Jay Maryland

The Kilo2400 ABS does exactly what I expected it to do – it measures range and displays latency in Mils or Moa. You select a range and the bright OLED display with ambient adaptation shows the range for 2 seconds, then the range adaptation for 2 seconds, and then the cycle repeats I think 3 times. As you read, keep in mind that once set up, the rangefinder can be used offline with the phone app, meaning the phone app is not required to get range and grip. All weapon and environment data is stored in the rangefinder, and the ABS app is integrated with the rangefinder, so after setting up profiles and syncing from the app to the rangefinder, the rangefinder becomes standalone with some limitations. cover next. There are a few things to note, not necessarily a problem, one of which is that you need to set it up with your phone (Android or iPhone). You cannot change rifle settings etc. from the range finder itself. You can choose to view range in yards or meters, as well as basic operating parameters. You cannot set wind speed, sight elevation, muzzle velocity, BC, etc. with the range finder. To do this, you must use the phone app. You can select 1 of 4 weapon profiles as active. The profile can be selected on the device, but each profile must be configured with the app. The profiles have the names of professors 1-4 and do not tell you what weapon is used in that profile. Again, you'll need to use the phone app to see this. So you need to know which guns and data are in which app, or look for them in the phone app. All environmental sensors are located in the range finder. This worries me a bit because when the electronics generate heat, it affects the temperature sensor. However, this probably won't be enough to cause a halt error. Also, I don't know how it measures humidity, it looks like it's a sealed unit so I'm not sure how it senses humidity, but it seems pretty accurate compared to my Kestrel 5700 Elite with the open ones to be sensors. Keep in mind that you can't see the temperature or other environmental readings in the range finder, you can do that with the phone app too. The range/hold confirmation is somewhat problematic. Let's say you select a difficult target and something appears and you don't set your target area. Then you realize you don't remember the relic, so you have to read it again. IF the device is still switching between range and hold, just look into the range finder and get them. If it times out or loops, you'll need to change the scope, and with a complex target this can be problematic. Kestrel and set the page accordingly, but it doesn't; The Kilo 2400 BDX will be there, but the ABS version will not. And that can be a problem. You're pretty much alone with the wind. You can set the wind speed and direction via the app, but then you need to sync it with the range finder. If the wind changes, you have to do it again. The rangefinder comes with an anemometer (wind speed meter) that plugs into your phone's audio jack IF your phone has an audio jack. Even if this is the case, you should now run the phone app and hold your phone upwind to get wind speed and direction. I don't know how well this works. All that said, if you can determine range, the Kilo2400 ABS will calculate and display range, grip and pitch. You simply select the range, read the delay, set the range and you're done. I don't have a BDX oscilloscope and I'm not sure if it's related to a BDX oscilloscope, so I'd like to confirm this if you're considering the Kilo 2400 ABS. The Kilo2400 BDX would probably be a better choice (less expensive) for use with a BDX oscilloscope.
