Speed Stack Timer Version 3 Real

[CubeLTD]

I found this while I was browsing the site. It wasn't there a few days ago. Not sure if anyone mention it yet.

Link:

http://www.speedstacks.com/store3/retail/speed-stacks-stackmat-pro/ (out of stock though)

Features:

Accuracy to 0.001 seconds
Memory feature to save your best times
Data port to connect to external display
Gen3 Graphics

EDIT: It seems what I posted above is actually the "Speed Stack timer PRO" and that there is another time called the "3rd generation"
http://www.speedstacks.com/store3/retail/speed-stacks-stackmat/ (V3 Timer and Mat)
http://www.speedstacks.com/store3/retail/speed-stacks-mat-only/ (Mat)

From the description it seems that it's much more inferior.
"Please Note: The Gen 3 Timers do not have data ports, do not have the memory feature and are not compatible with StackPods or Tournament Displays. "

Other than no data port

There is a data port...

 

[Evan Liu]

Heh, I thought this might have been a surprise challenge...

It appears that the "Stackmat Pro", the timer for the "Bundle" link, is not the same as the "Gen 3 stackmat", the timer for the "Mat and Timer" link.
The former is accurate to 0.001 seconds and has a data port; the latter is accurate to 0.01 seconds and does not have a data port.

 

[cubernya]

I was talking about the mat and timer, not the bundle

 

[CubeLTD]

Yes. You are correct Evan. I didn't notice that. Updated OP.

Those were probably shopped as well!

Of course. How you know? It's phish site. Just had to copy the page source to match the layout and then upload my Photoshopped images.

The 3rd gen has no date port (unless it's on the top, away from view), and the pro version has up to thousandths, instead of hundredths, like the current ones. If we use those for WCA comps, then results will have to be rounded or something.

 

[Andrew Ricci]

If we use those for WCA comps, then results will have to be rounded or something.

No they won't. The older results would just be changed to the thousandths. If the new timers are implemented, results like 5.66 will be changed to 5.660.

 

[Godmil]

No they won't. The older results would just be changed to the thousandths. If the new timers are implemented, results like 5.66 will be changed to 5.660.

Ah no, that's a kinda rounding error. You can't add detail that wasn't there. Who is to say which is faster between 5.66 and 5.664?

Taken from the website:

"Please Note: The Gen 3 Timers do not have data ports, do not have the memory feature and are not compatible with StackPods or Tournament Displays."

But the pro does have the data port

 

[Owen]

But does it have an improved battery life?

Also, what is the exact difference between the gen 2 and gen 3? It just looks like it has some minor graphic changes.

Oh, you know the usual.. just... no data port and memory features. Version 3 = downgrade, tbh.

Then get the Pro version.

 

[CubeLTD]

Then get the Pro version.

Will do, when it's in stock.

Umm, I am? If we go by that logic, the times will never become more accurate. 5.66 and 5.660 are the exact same thing.

You're missing the point.
What he was saying is that you would be unable to fairly compare old results to new results.

For example, if person A from long ago got a time of 5.66 when it was actually 5.664, then changed to 5.660, then person B used the new stackmats and got a time of 5.663, person A would be ranked above person B even though person B was faster.
