    like mike and others I use a Robic 808,
    works fine although the other day everything
    froze (display did not go blank as in dead
    battery, but all the displays froze).  how
    that could happen is under investigation;
    meanwhile, I unscrewed the battery lock and
    refitted the battery and it has been working
    normally.  if battery was "dislocated" unclear
    how as I did not bump the stopwatch.
    
    ref Bjorn's comment re logging, I now mostly
    use Willie's pip.exe (DOS) on a "dedicated"
    old DOS box with a trimmed pc clock typical
    drift < 0.05 s/day which logs all splits to
    .log text file.
    I think you can setup something similar with
    kiwi.exe which controls clock with GPS and
    (IIRC) has a stopwatch_like timing as well
    as video insertion.
