{"product_id":"sports-radar-srdl-838-kit","title":"Sports Radar SRDL-838-KIT Radar Gun and 8 Inch Display Kit","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sports Radar SRDL-838-KIT is the field version of the display kit: the long reaching SR3800 radar gun paired with the DL834, a three digit 8 inch red LED board that stays readable from roughly 350 feet. The gun reads a baseball to about 130 feet, works through chain link and reports release speed and speed at the plate from the same pitch, so a coach can clock from behind the backstop while the number goes up where the dugout and the stands can see it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the 12V power adapter and a 25 foot RJ45 cable are part of the kit. The link between gun and board is a plain cable and a serial protocol, with no app, no pairing and no subscription in the path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the SR3800 Brings to the SRDL-838-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, with a ball range of about 130 feet at the nF1 noise filter setting and its strongest performance between 30 and 100 MPH. Reading through chain link is the practical headline: the operator stays behind the backstop and still gets a number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePull and release the trigger for the fastest speed on a pitch. Pull and hold instead and the gun captures two readings from the same throw, toggling between the speed at release and the speed at the plate. That difference is what a pitching coach uses to judge how a fastball is carrying, and it is the single feature that separates this kit from the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-836-kit\"\u003eSRDL-836-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e, which uses the same board with the shorter range SR3600.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA nine step noise filter, nF1 through nF9, trades range for interference rejection, which matters indoors and anywhere near lights, motors or other radar. Settings persist between sessions, including whether the confirmation beeper is on, so the gun can be run silently from the stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAn 8 Inch Board a Grandstand Can Read\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-dl834-led-speed-display\"\u003eDL834\u003c\/a\u003e lights three ultra bright 8 inch red LED digits, reads up to 999 and carries about 350 feet in shaded light with an extremely wide viewing angle. It arrives set for normal operation, holding the highest speed it has seen for at least two seconds before a newer reading can overwrite it, which keeps the number up long enough for a crowd to read after a pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe enclosure is a heavy duty steel frame at 5 lb, weather resistant rather than waterproof, so it comes in out of the rain or lives in a clear enclosure. LED digits wash out in direct sunlight, so the face should be kept out of the sun, and the power transformer is rated for indoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFour Radar Inputs and One Power Feed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board takes up to four radar sources simultaneously and shows only the fastest speed received, with an indicator marking which input produced it. Two guns at opposite ends of a field feeding one board is a normal setup, and so is a multi lane cage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower supplied to the display also feeds back down the data cable and runs the gun, so a wired installation needs one outlet and no batteries. For a bullpen or a cage that runs all day, that removes the most common interruption there is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMounting and Cable Runs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo hanging brackets sit on the back for a flat wall mount, and 1\/4-20 nuts are fitted top and bottom. The bottom nut takes a table top stand or a heavy duty tripod; the top nut hangs the board from a wall mount bracket so it can be angled down toward the seats. A lightweight camera tripod is not appropriate for a 5 lb display, and neither is a removable shoe type head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit's 25 foot cable covers a short run. \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-cat5-radar-cable\"\u003eCAT5 extenders\u003c\/a\u003e in 25 and 50 foot lengths stack to a 100 foot maximum run between radar and display with a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-rj45-cable-coupler\"\u003ecoupler\u003c\/a\u003e at each join, which is normally enough to put the gun behind the plate and the board on the fence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho This Radar Gun Kit Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOutdoor baseball and softball fields with grandstand viewing. Showcases, tryouts and combines where release and plate speeds both get recorded and spectators want to see them. High school and college programs running bullpens in front of a crowd. Tournament operators who need one board that several guns can feed.

A \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-radar-gun-tripod\"\u003etripod\u003c\/a\u003e and a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-tuning-fork\"\u003etuning fork\u003c\/a\u003e are separate items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow is this different from the SRDL-836-KIT?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSame DL834 board, better gun. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-836-kit\"\u003eSRDL-836-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e ships an SR3600 that reads a ball to about 60 feet. This kit ships the SR3800, which reads to about 130 feet, works through chain link and reports release and plate speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I clock a pitch from behind the backstop?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. That is what this kit is for. The SR3800 reads through chain link and has the range to cover a full size field from behind the plate. Keep the gun as close to the line of the ball's flight as the backstop allows, because a reading taken from an angle comes back low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan two guns feed the same board?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, up to four. The DL834 reads all connected sources at once, displays only the fastest speed and lights an indicator to show which input it came from. Additional guns connect through \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-rj45-signal-splitter\"\u003eRJ45 splitters\u003c\/a\u003e and extra cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the gun need its own power supply?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot when it is wired to the display. The 12VDC transformer that runs the board feeds power back down the data cable to the gun. Away from the board, the gun runs on two 9V alkaline batteries, which are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow far can the board sit from the gun?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to 100 feet, built from the included 25 foot cable plus stacked 25 and 50 foot extenders with a coupler at each join. That is the maximum run between a radar and the display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill it work with an inflatable speed pitch game?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The SR3800's range causes it to read past an inflatable target and pick up movement off the structure behind it. An inflatable booth needs the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-36-kit\"\u003eSRDL-36-KIT\u003c\/a\u003e, which pairs the shorter range SR3600 with a 4 inch display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sports Radar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51509506507067,"sku":"S07-SRDL-838-KIT","price":1094.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/4658\/8987\/files\/SRDL-838-KIT.jpg?v=1785180208","url":"https:\/\/www.hittingstore.com\/products\/sports-radar-srdl-838-kit","provider":"HittingStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
