Question 1

Does this measure distance over sand traps?

Accepted Answer

It measures whatever you point it at. It works great. I would definitely recommend it. I have used it for over sand traps and distance to the one fifty for a layup. Very fast and accurate.

Question 2

I am not able to switch rangefinder off, any help?

Accepted Answer

The rangefinder turns itself off after a few minutes.

Question 3

I got this item last july 19th. recenly it has trouble.  yd,m is no display. when i push "mode" button the power is turned off. how can i get service?

Accepted Answer

Replacing the battery will not solve the issue. Leaving the battery in the range finder all the time is what is causing the problem. Mine did that after about 2 years. I contacted the company and they told me the fading LCD screen was caused by fumes emitted from the battery. He told me to pull the battery and leave the range finder in the sun for a few days. I didn't think that would do anything but after I left it in the window of my car for 3 days I put the battery back in and the display looked like new again. My son has one and had the same issue and it was resolved the same way. The only problem is that it does this all the time now. I have gotten used to pulling the battery after I am done with it. It usually lasts 3 to 4 rounds before I have to leave it in the window of my car again, but each time I have done it the display is like new again. I have had mine for 4 years now and it still works well, other than that work around.

Question 4

Mine won’t give a yardage past 100 yards. power is on but no yardage. i see the flagstick. had it year now. what gives? no drops or water damage

Accepted Answer

Same thing happened to mine. Worked fine for around a year (maybe 10 rounds at most) then won't pick up much of any distance. It can maybe shoot a tree at 90 yards but anything smaller (like the pin) it won't pick up past 20 yards. Emailed TECTECTECT but since it's over a year old they said they can't do anything.
