Xflyee DGT Chess Clock Review

Does anybody have a review on this chess clock I just bought? It is pretty good and does almost everything a DGT NA would.

no.

Arent you supposed to be modding my server or something?

Also the lions are gonna win the SB

Why do you want a review for a chess clock you already purchased...

I Dont Have Mod On Your New Server @WeebersTwitch

L Take

L

I want to hear other peoples opinions that I will completely ignore

Just Like Crispys server, Ill Take Down Yours Too

The one you have mod in I dont use anymore. Plus I can just remove your mod lol

Also my wick bot completely prevents you from doing so. Go ahead and try

What If I Gained Control And Removed Wick? What You Gonna Do Then?

Thats impossible since Wick has higher permissions than the admin role

I bought and then returned two samples (duplicate order) of these clocks.

Pros:
You can set seconds, so you can give each player the "bonus" 30 seconds instantly for FIDE increment, just like you can on the longbody Chronos and on the Chronos GX (GX Requires you to very quickly start and stop the clock and then you can add the 30 seconds). As far as I know, ONLY the DGT 3000 and DGT 2500 allow you to change the move counter when the clock is paused, no idea if the DGT NA can (Chronos cannot), no idea if these PS-1688 clocks let you do that either.

Clock shows seconds in hour long time controls.

Clock function itself is decent enough.

Move counter can be disabled, so that the clock will add time for the second time control after one player's time elapses in the first, rather than after X number of moves. To disable the move counter, set the number of moves to 00.

I forgot if it has the FIDE "freeze" function. Returned the clock too fast for me to pay attention to that.

Cons:

1) QA or testing on these clocks has to be non-existent. Lever mechanism has completely imbalanced activation. On both clocks I purchased, the right side lever would activate the left player if you BARELY even begun to press the lever (i'm talking like 5% of the travel distance down!). Then if you removed your finger, it would reactivate the right side again. I also encountered this causing double inputs to happen rarely, and one amazon reviewer said sometimes the second player would not activate consistently if you didnt press the lever down enough. That was a complete deal breaker, and the second clock (I ordered two at once) was not much better than the first. Returned them for a refund.

The DGT 2500 I received today has the activation right in the middle of the travel, which is how it *should* be.

2. This clock is based on the "PS-1688" clock, which has a bunch of people in china making clocks with these electronics. I have NO idea if all of them have iffy lever issues or not.

3. I tested the pushbutton version of this clock at a tournament. Even this has a deal breaker in it. You have to press the button right in the center, or risk not getting an activation. The kid who showed me the clock lost on time once because he pressed it during a time scramble but it didn't activate. The Chronos clocks with Cherry MX keyswitches never have such an issue (cherry has been making keyboard and panel (as well as some arcade controls) keyswitches for many many years).
