Durability

Setup Complexity
Customers have mixed opinions on the setup complexity of the SKLZ Speed Gates, with some finding it easy and quick to put together while others encountered challenges aligning the sensors and getting them to work properly. Some users suggested using additional props like chairs or traffic cones for support during setup. Overall, most customers were satisfied with the product's functionality and affordability once they got it set up.
Laser Sensitivity
Customers have mixed opinions regarding the laser sensitivity of the SKLZ Speed Gates for Sports and Athletic Training. While some find it accurate and comparable to expensive alternatives, others report issues with sensitivity in warm outdoor conditions and inconsistent performance. Some users mention the system turning on unintentionally due to its sensitive switch.
Distance Range
Customers have reported mixed experiences with the distance range of the SKLZ Speed Gates, with some successfully using them for distances up to 40-50 meters while others have only been able to achieve accurate readings within a much shorter range. Some users suggest that the gates may not be suitable for timing races longer than 50 meters due to loss of contact between the receiver and the gates.
Highlights
Quality
Work perfect for us, laser work good, no damages in the cones.
Overall excellent product that takes some adjusting to work properly.
Cons: the measures only 30m, maybe 50mm will be better and you can not measure time laps or 5-0-5 agility test
I was excited and everything was very easy to set up, however the timer did not turn on at all so it’s getting returned.
Price
I purchase 4 cheap $7 tripods from amazon and am a very happy camper
For our purposes, these timing gates have proven to be an excellent product at a very affordable price.
However for the price you cant beat this.
Shipping
Then a added a carrying case with foam for easy and safe transport.
Packaging/appearance
Great packaging by sklz for the cones, cameras and timer.
Competitiveness
Similar products are up to a grand, so this was a great deal.
It is accurate, we took some kids to a camp at warner college and the laser 40's were almost identical to the speed gates i used.
There's no other product out there right now which compares in both price & functionality.
This system should help foster competition amongst my sprinters.

Timers work do what theyre supposed to

However to be more accurate and actually stop the timer they need to be taller

The reason a lot of people arent getting the timer to start or stop is because the runner is stepping over the beam

Just annoying that i need to bring other materials and this is probably by design these wont attach to a normal tripod

It’s a good product but arrived with scratches on the digital screen and 2 dead batteries
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Upon validation we also now utilize the timing gates for exercise science research when indicated
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The lasers appear high tech they really are just garage door laser motion sensors and although they are made of plastic i expect they will last a very long time given they arent mistreated
