{"product_id":"sports-radar-srdl-38-kit","title":"Sports Radar SRDL-38-KIT Radar Gun and 4 Inch Display Kit","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sports Radar SRDL-38-KIT pairs the SR3800 radar gun with a three digit 4 inch red LED display, so pitch speeds go up on a board instead of staying on the back of a gun. The SR3800 is the long reach model in the line: it reads a baseball out to about 130 feet, it works through chain link, and it can report both the release speed and the speed at the plate from a single pitch. That is the combination a coach standing behind a backstop actually needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe display here is the same DL431-R that ships in the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-36-kit\"\u003eSRDL-36-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e. The difference between the two kits is the gun, and what the gun buys is range and a second number on every pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the SR3800 Brings to the SRDL-38-KIT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-sr3800-radar-gun\"\u003eSR3800\u003c\/a\u003e covers 10 to 250 MPH at 1 MPH resolution and reads a baseball to roughly 130 feet with the noise filter at its nF1 setting, with range strongest between 30 and 100 MPH. It reads through chain link fencing, so the operator does not have to leave the safety of the backstop to get a number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePull and release the trigger and the gun reports the fastest speed it saw. Pull and hold instead and it captures two speeds from the same pitch, toggling between the release reading and the reading as the ball crosses the plate. The gap between those two numbers is what tells a pitching coach how much a fastball is carrying, and it is the feature that separates this gun from the SR3600.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA nine step noise filter runs from nF1, the least aggressive setting with the longest reach, to nF9, which pulls the readable range in to about 20 feet to reject interference from lights, motors, fans and other radar in the same building. The gun powers up on nF2 by default and remembers whatever settings were last used, including whether the confirmation beeper is on, which matters when clocking from the stands during a game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThis Kit Is Not for Inflatable Speed Pitch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SR3800's reach becomes a liability inside an inflatable speed pitch game. The gun keeps reading past the target, picks up motion off the inflatable walls and returns speeds that do not belong to the pitch. This kit is not compatible with inflatable setups. Anyone running an inflatable booth should buy the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-36-kit\"\u003eSRDL-36-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e instead, where the SR3600's 60 foot ball range is a deliberate design choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 4 Inch Display and How Far It Reads\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-dl431-r-led-speed-display\"\u003eDL431-R\u003c\/a\u003e shows three 4 inch red LED digits, reads to 999 and stays legible from roughly 200 feet in shaded light with a wide viewing angle. It is the indoor and shaded area board: LED digits wash out in direct sun, the enclosure is not waterproof, and the power supply is built for indoor use. A 1\/4-20 thread on the bottom and two hanging brackets on the back cover most mounting situations, and the included table top stand handles the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the number has to carry to a grandstand rather than to the mound, the 8 inch board in the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-838-kit\"\u003eSRDL-838-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e reads to about 350 feet and takes up to four radar inputs.

Shielded 25 and 50 foot extenders stack to a 100 foot maximum run with a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-rj45-cable-coupler\"\u003ecoupler\u003c\/a\u003e at each join, which is usually enough to put the board on a fence while the gun sits behind the plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower is flexible. The gun runs on two 9V alkaline batteries, on a wall adapter through its external power jack, or directly from a Sports Radar display over the data cable, which is the arrangement worth knowing about for a permanent cage or bullpen install because it removes batteries from the routine entirely. On batteries, expect up to 12 hours of continuous running and roughly 60 hours in trigger mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor hands free work the gun threads onto any 1\/4-20 camera tripod and runs in continuous mode with a selectable delay of 0.5 or 2.5 seconds between readings, updating as fast as two speeds per second.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho This Radar Gun Kit Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOutdoor baseball and softball fields where a coach clocks from behind the backstop and the whole dugout wants to see the number. Showcases and tryouts that need release and plate speeds recorded rather than a single figure. High school and college programs putting speeds on a board during bullpens. It also covers lacrosse shot speed and wiffle ball events without changing anything about the setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the wrong kit for an inflatable game, and it is more gun than an indoor booth needs when the thrower is standing 30 feet away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSports Radar SRDL-38-KIT Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadar gun: SR3800 with RadarDataPort serial output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun speed range: 10 to 250 MPH (16 to 403 Km\/H), MPH or Km\/H selectable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun range on a ball: 130 feet at the nF1 noise filter setting, strongest between 30 and 100 MPH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun accuracy: 1 MPH resolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadar band: X band 10.525 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun readout: 3 digit LCD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun modes: trigger for fastest speed, trigger held for release plus plate speed, and continuous at up to 2 speeds per second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise filter: nF1 through nF9, default nF2 at power up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun dimensions: 10-3\/4 in long x 2-3\/4 in wide x 7-1\/4 in high, 0.85 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun power: two 9V alkaline batteries, 9 to 12 VDC wall adapter, or power fed from the display over the data cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun battery life: up to 12 hours continuous, typically 60 hours in trigger mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun operating temperature: -10 to 130 F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay: DL431-R, three 4 inch red LED digits, reads to 999\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay viewing distance: about 200 feet in shaded light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay enclosure: 12-1\/4 in wide x 6-3\/8 in high x 1-1\/2 in deep, 1.5 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay input: RJ45 8\/8 jack, RS232 at 1200 baud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay power: 6 to 14 VDC, 0.5 A at high brightness or 0.3 A at normal brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay operating temperature: 40 to 110 F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable: 25 foot shielded RJ45, extendable to a 100 foot maximum run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 year limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSR3800 radar gun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDL431-R three digit 4 inch red LED display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9V wall power adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 foot RJ45 cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e65 MPH tuning fork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTable top display stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard carry case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBatteries are not included.

It is the mid range gun in the line, reading a baseball to about 130 feet at the nF1 filter setting against the 60 feet the SR3600 in the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-36-kit\"\u003eSRDL-36-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e manages, and it adds the release plus plate reading that the SR3600 does not have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill this kit work with an inflatable speed pitch game?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The SR3800 reads well past an inflatable target and returns speeds off the structure behind it. For an inflatable booth, buy the SRDL-36-KIT, which is the configuration built for that job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I clock a pitch from behind the backstop?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SR3800 reads through chain link, and 130 feet of ball range at the nF1 setting is enough to cover a full size field from behind the plate. Stay as close to the line of the ball's flight as the backstop allows, since a gun set off to the side reads low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes it give release speed and speed at the plate?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Pull and hold the trigger and the gun captures both, toggling between the release reading and the reading at the plate. Only the release speed is passed to a connected computer if you later add the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-sr-pc-02-software\"\u003edata acquisition software\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the display bigger than the one in the SRDL-36-KIT?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Both kits use the same DL431-R with three 4 inch digits and about 200 feet of viewing distance. If a bigger board is the goal, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-838-kit\"\u003eSRDL-838-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e pairs this same gun with an 8 inch display that reads to roughly 350 feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAre batteries included?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The gun takes two 9V alkaline batteries. It can also run from a wall adapter, or draw power from a Sports Radar display down the data cable, which is the usual arrangement for a permanent cage or bullpen setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sports Radar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51509506375995,"sku":"S07-SRDL-38-KIT","price":908.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.hittingstore.com\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-38-kit","provider":"HittingStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
