Default Re: Biondo "Terminator" transbrake switch

I recieved and tested my terminator today and here are my results. I hit the tree 20 times at each setting and averaged my reactions, then zero'd everything to my pro tree switch.

Pro Tree Switch: .000
Terminator all shims in: .015
Terminator 2 shims out: .031
Terminator 4 shims out: .040
Terminator 6 shims out: .050
Terminator all shims out: .049

All the hits were made with the 1/8 inch shim in. So as you can see it seems to me the button is worth .015 over a quick releasing button and has approximately .035 worth of adjustment. As you could imagine with this type of button it is not as consistent as the pro tree button and the more shims removed the more inconsistent it became. Just thought I would let you all know my findings. Seems to me like if you really wanted to get some adjustment out of the switch you could mount another spring from under the terminator and attach it to the bottom of the spring inside the button. Just a thought.
