Founded 1982 · Rockford, Illinois
An engineer, a stopwatch,
and a better idea
Competition Electronics was founded in 1982 by an electrical engineer with a passion for shooting sports who recognized the need for something more effective than a stopwatch for scoring matches.
The first shot timer
Founded in Rockford, Illinois to build a better way to score matches than a stopwatch.
The Pocket Pro
The classic model that put a shot timer in every range bag — still a favorite.
Into chronographs
The ProChrono line brought the same affordable, serviceable approach to measuring velocity.
Bluetooth and beyond
The ProTimer BT and ProChrono DLX put the whole session on your phone, with free firmware updates for timers you already own.
