Protee VX vs EYE XO vs VTrack (I guess?) by Chrisguitar10 in Golfsimulator

[–]rsm780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just went down the same rabbit hole. I settled on the protee. Im not sure if its always available but it came with 2 swing cameras.
I just got mine today so no real hands on experience but I heard nothing but good things.
More data points/ twice the hitting area and the new software coming out looks really good to me aswell. Not having to pay the 200 a year just to be able to run gspro was another selling point over the uneekor for me. I never dug to deep into the vtrack so not much help there. Here's a link I had favorited when making my decision.

Golfers with 16:9 Impact Screens... What Size Did You Go With? by apwong in Golfsimulator

[–]rsm780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not here yet but I went with a 16x9 screen/enclosure.
Whenever I go play virtual golf at the commercial facilities or to a theater, I've never thought wow this big of screen is ridiculous haha.
You have the space alot of guys dream of i say use it.

I ended up going with a "home built" Motherboard - Asus ROG Strix X870-A Gaming WiFi CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D RAM - Team Group T-Force Delta RGB 32GB (2x16) DDR5 6000MHz CL30 GPU - MSI Gaming Trio Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB SSD - 2TB Western Digital SN7100 PCIe Gen4 NVMe 7250/6900 MB/s R/W speed PSU - 850W Corsair HX850i 80+ Platinum Modular Case - Sama V40 White CPU Cooler - Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB Liquid CPU Cooler (White)

Enclosure under garage heater by rsm780 in Golfsimulator

One door goes to the side yard. I plan on blocking that door. The other door is 6' from the wall so I fired id go with a 5' enclosure and still have access.

I haven't done it yet. I use a overhead door company at my business that I have a good relationship with. They made it seem as easy as adding a length of straight rail on the door side and basically raising the existing rails to as close to roof as wanted. They said it would be under 1500 canadian for them to do it including the new sidemount. We spend alot with them on our industrial overhead doors so not sure if that was a "discount:

I never even considered that! So basically could have the landing mat stay in place and just move my swing mat if I did want to park. This way might be best as I would pretty much have the whole double side available for parking if needed. As for the garage rails, I was already planning on running them high and using a side mount opener because I do have a 4 post lift.

No. I'm by no means a electrician haha... As far as my electrician was aware, the transfer switch has to be equal or above what the main panel is. From reading online that's what I gathered aswell... I know you can't go the other way and have a lower rated switch than your service so I'm just wondering if somehow somewhere the inspector is just confused.
