does it give distance to hazards?

Hi, The S2 gives you precise yardages to the front, middle and back of the green, as well as dogleg and layup distance, players can see distance to doglegs and other hazards on the course.

If you set it to "H" (highway mode) then it will detect further away, and you won't get the alerts when you pass through a parkinglot. It you have it on "C" which is city, it will detect Everything. But to answer your question, about half a mile to a mile in Highway Mode.

I have never measured the distance. But, I've been very pleased about the warning time. This unit has been much better than any detector I have owned before.

Not sure, I use it for public safety applications..will have to look into it.

No. It only measures to the green. Front, middle and back. However, I think the newer (and more expensive) G2 does measure to hazards.

Im not sure but my dog got about 50ft ahead of me and it worked. It should say somewhere on the company website.

That depends on the surrounding area. If you are in an open field, the distance could be measured in miles. But I never had any chance to test it. Usually I am using it for shopping purposes: my wife goes shopping in the mall, while I am sitting inmy car in the parking lot. I never had any chance to lose her. Compared to previous walkie-talkies that I had used, Midland is the best one. Weather forecast available on this model is quite helpful. Well, everything depends on where you are going to use it. Obstacles like buildings surrounding you may definitely shorten the distance of communication with another person, but I have never had any chance to check it. That depends on the surrounding area.

We put ours too close to the entrance of our circle drive and it usually failed to alert for cars coming in if they drove close to that side. It never failed to alert on cars exiting the driveway. The range is really good so if you have room place it a few feet back.

as long as you have the range set @ a distance that includes the exterior (yard) of your house...indoors or outdoors does not matter. It's the number of feet from the controller that determines correction.

yes it does and is very good. bringing distance away objects closer and clear too. I hope this answers your question

It shows you distance to hazards. In terms of doglegs it shows "end of fairway". But at my home course it seems to measure that to the extreme end and not the closest end of fairway. Also I don't think this is available on all doglegs but just those that are extreme or have hazards through the fairway.

Can set the unit to view a broad angle which limits its distance. Don't recall how far that detects. The beam setting can detect up to about 50' as I recall. I use the beam all around my property. To limit the distance I aim the beam at a tree trunk, wall, run the beam into the ground or other ways. You could aim it at a power box or shrub. Does a wonderful job. I tried many different detectors and this is the only one reliable and durable. Have had one receiver and 6 detectors for nearly 10 years mounted outside. Not a failure yet. Batteries last a year or more. I use the cheapest alkaline I can find.

I would estimate the wire to be about four feet. Yes, it will measure in miles for both speed and distance.

No...it gives you that info automatically. You only point of you want to know the distance to a certain point in pro mode

The answer is YES, this feature is poorly implemented & almost impossible to see /use, I use a tape measure to set the distance.

i have used it about 12 feet away and it worked fine. It will go further then that.

It does not show distance to traps, hazards, etc. I wanted an inexpensive GPS unit that would show distances to front, center, and back of green that was accurate and easy to use which this one does. It also will show shot distance, keep score, give round time, and is able to edit distances. I can get two rounds with one charge, however, I usually charge it each time I play. I am very happy with this unit.
