Kestrel KST1000 Shot Timer with LiNK - Yellow

The Kestrel KST1000 Shot Timer with LiNK is built for shooters who demand reliability on the range, whether you're running IPSC matches, perfecting dry fire drills, or testing loads with suppressed firearms. This shot timer combines the rugged engineering Kestrel is known for with practical features that work the way competitive shooters and serious practitioners actually train. The dual-screen design—top and front displays—lets you read your split times without fumbling, whether you're holding it in your hand or clipped to your belt or pocket.

Kestrel engineered the KST1000 to handle real-world use. It's waterproof and dust-proof to IP67 and drop-tested to military standards (MIL-STD-810G), so it'll survive the abuse a training tool takes. The extra-loud buzzer cuts through hearing protection and outdoor noise. Bluetooth connectivity (LiNK enabled) opens the door to linking with other devices and future data integration. With up to 90 hours of battery life on two CR123 batteries, you won't be swapping cells mid-match.

The timer stores up to 50 strings of 150 shots each, so you can log a full training session without data loss. Set up to five custom presets for your most-used par times, start loops, and match configurations, then switch between them instantly. Whether you're working splits, strings, or match scenarios—or just dialing in your trigger control at home—the KST1000 adapts to your discipline. It weighs just 9.2 ounces and fits in a pocket, making it the kind of tool you'll actually carry to the range every time.
