Ordered one after reading this, will see how it goes when it turns up.
re range, I tried across a gully with my 1000m SNDWAY onto tussock, scrub & bush and it consistently read in 800-900m range.
Once it got into the 900-1000m it took longer and sometimes failed to return a distance. I call that a very good pass as once the animal is out past 400m its definitely walk closer time for me!
I found one of these in China recently and grabbed it cos I had read this thread, cost me about $90 after a bit dealing. Haven't had a good chance to test it out but seems to range out 500m ok. Need to test it out along side another range finder or a known distance.
Nah if its under a certain amount, not sure what it is though. Does anyone know?Quote:

Haven't paid duty for anything I've brought from aliexpress. Typcially the customs label shows a value that about 1/3 what I actually paid. Threshold for almost everything used to be about NZ$400 including shipping but $400 no longer applies to everything. Go here for a duty calculator if you're concenred about it

Would love to hear some updates on how these rangefinders are going now...if they are still going. Cheers.
I have the 1000 and its is still working great.
Curious as well, needing something with thr (angle at least displayed)
2post what range are you getting out to with it? Would be using it tahr hunting out to 500-600. Cheers
I have no trouble getting regular readings out to 900m on the hill across the harbour from me and it will range out to 1000 so at 600 Is a walk in the park. I always planned to try it beside puffins Leica but haven’t had a chance yet. I have lent it to my boss and he’s planning to buy one. Im happy to let you have a play @H.M but you’re a little far away.
Thanks mate i think i am sold on one anyway, and with the angle compensation its a no brainer at that price. Cheers.

We had a Leica there and it was reading within 10-20m of the SNDWAY in the 800-1000m range so not concerns about accuracy.
Maybe check out a golf forum?Quote:

How are your SNDWAY range finders going ?
Great! I'm on my second. Killed the first. Entirely my fault. It got soaked and I put it too close to a heat pump to dry it out. Glue melted and it fell apart.Quote:
