Here's the first really portable, rechargeable,
and affordable Practice Segment Timer that has ever been offered.
If you are a well organized coach and
you want to make sure that you cover all of the things in practice
that you want to cover, the ST 500 is perfect for you. It also
transmits a message to your players, and your coaches, that you want
a sense of professionalism
and
focus in your practices. Segment timers
are an important tool to keep almost every college and pro coach on
track in their practices. If you are a high school coach, the ST 500 is so
inexpensive, you can't afford not to have this valuable
coaching tool.
Remote has over 100 yd. range
The ST500 now has a "remote pause" feature that lets
you pause the segment/time whenever you want a pause to occur in
practice.
Programs are saved from
the previous day's practice.....you can save similar segments and
erase unwanted segments and times. Average time to program an entire
practice in is around 1-2 minutes..........
Very easy to
program-see video below
Three buttons do all of the
programming....."Segment" button up or dn, "Minutes" button up or dn...(the
"up or dn" is the third button) You can pause the program
remotely during practice
or manually add or subtract time to any segment. You are not limited
to the number of segments that you can program in. Each
segment can contain up to 99 minutes, and each segment can be
different (or same) as the previous one.
Bonus
25 sec. mode for games....
The unit is not only a
Segment Timer, but also has a built in 25
second clock mode for use in each end zone during games (2 units
needed for this). You can buy one segment timer this year, and
another next year and then have the 25 second capability. The back
judge controls both clocks with one remote. The unit also has a 60 second countdown capability for time outs.
A battery charger and
battery are included with the unit. Recharges overnight.
We can provide the plans for the
shelf shown in the photo above right, that can be built for less than
$39. It has hooks that attach to a fence and helps keep rain off of
the timer.
Very light and portable...
The ST500 has a very compact
design that makes it easy to carry, but does not skimp on the
size of the display (12" H) The unit is much easier to carry and to
see than competing segment timers because the segment number size
when it displays every 4 sec. is also a full 12" tall.
Just a glance over at the timer
will tell you or your assistant coaches how much time is left in a
segment. Alternately displays
segment, then time, 2 sec. for segment, 4 sec. for time left in
a segment, on a continuous basis. To help you visually differentiate
between segment and time, the unit will rapidly blink during
the 2 sec. segment mode.
A loud horn
sounds at the segment end
The Practice Sentineltm
will also give two short beeps two minutes before a segment
finishes
to alert you to wrap up your teaching and that the segment is close to ending.
Display uses bright 10 year LED's
Large 12" numbers can be
seen over 120 yards away in bright sunlight, and you can easily hear the
unit 400 Feet away.....perfect for football as well as
any outdoor or indoor sport.
Rugged, no rust design, the ST500 is guaranteed
a full season against defects in manufacture. An overnight battery
charge will last many hours. Uses a smaller sealed automotive
type, long lasting battery. |
