Joule Creep in Airsoft: Why you should only chrono with play-weight BBs! Feat. Begadi Pocket Chrono

Finally guys – it's peak of the airsoft season, and there are dozens of opportunities to play outside.
Best time of the year here in central Europe, if you ask me!

But what also happens when you play airsoft more frequently is, that you see field's marshalls with the craziest of chrono standards when measuring your replicas energy – for example, using a questionable low BB weight to chrono the joules – or even worse, measuring only the velocity of the BB in feet or meters per second.

In this video, I'd like to show you in cooperation with my sponsoring partner Begadi, why only the exact BB weight is suitable for the chrono that also will be used ingame – and why everything else will cause deviation which can be quite significant!
For this purpose, I use the all new Begadi Pocket Chrono and a set of different BB weights by Lonex, all provided to me by Begadi so I can make this test possible. Thank you very much, Begadi!
