Competition Timers

[DanpHan]

I plan on organizing a competition in South Carolina. I have 5 speedstacks timers that I could use, but 3 of them are first gen, one is second gen, and one is third gen. Would it be acceptable to use the 3 different generations in a competition?
I'm mainly asking because of the first generation timers. They're very outdated, so I don't know if they're still allowed.

Sorry, but according to the regulation 8a7) you can only use version 2 or above.
My advice would be to ask for support from your delegate.

Okay. Thanks.

I'd be quite surprised if you actually had a first gen timer. Can you show or describe it?

Some people call a gen 2 without a dataport gen 1. They're not gen 1 times.

I'm not sure if they do this for cubing, but speed stacks/the wssa loans timers to people who host cup stacking tournaments, so you might wanna try contacting the wssa.

Ask your delegate. There are a few people who have a bunch of timers that might be willing to bring them or lend them to you.
