speed camera

harro

does anyone know where i can get a relatively cheap speed camera?

i've googled and got awesome looking machines but they're all $200 plus and i cant justify any more than $100 for the amount of times i will use it.

the best option i have found so far is to buy from america but the moment i ask mum she will say no. she doesnt like buying from OS for some reason...something about warranties and postage:rolleyes:

matchbox or hot wheels or something like that have a cheap one. has any one got one???? how do they go ( i'm about to go look for reviews ) this seems like any economical option right now.

other than that, i cant think of anything else so any ideas?

cheers

I read a couple of reviews of the Hot Wheels gun and they were very impressed with the accuracy of such a cheap item.

I'm sure one did a comparison with a police radar gun, and wondered why our tax money was being wasted:rolleyes:

Not suitable for my MC900 then:oo:

the hot wheels one was reviewed by some to be awesome.

but others that used it for sports like baseball and hockey etc said it wazs useless.

i found a $99 kit on the Jaycar site. that looks all right.

thanx for your help fellas:cool:

linky to jaycar one.

i'm not into electronics but i think i would be able to build it or if i pay my brother he would do it. ( the cheapskate wont do it for free)

Stirlo, are you going to keep us in suspense or are you going to tell us what you need a speed camera for?:rolleyes:

:duh: i thought i did.

umm...measuring how fast i can drag flick and hit the ball in hockey. how fast i can pitch a softball and baseball. how fast i can throw and bowl.

thats about it.

oh and dads speedo is out and i will be able to prove it :D

this is the "cheap" one i want. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BUSHNELL-SPEE...QQcmdZViewItem.

the one i really want costs +$7000

Dont forget to tell us what road to avoid :q

Stirlo,

Ive been looking for a cheap one for quite a while, everyone I come across costs $180 and a couple of points....

Stirlo, if you get the Jaycar one i can help you build it.
I have cert IV or cert III or something in electronics (I have no idea what the eqivalent is nowdays) and i have all the gear you will need.
Let me know if you want some help. :robot:
