Though the LD-250 now works with Lightning/2000, there are some things you
need to be aware of:
 | Lightning/2000™ does not yet incorporate the capability to automatically
determine which way the antenna is pointed when used in a moving
vehicle. If you need this feature now, you will have to use the Boltek
software. |
 | Since the LD-250 performs its own analysis on the raw lightning data,
Lightning/2000 cannot determine the stroke type and polarity. However
version 3.0 of Lightning/2000 still incorporates substantial improvements
that can be used with the LD-250 hardware. |
 | Because of the serial connection, the maximum number of strokes per minute
detectable with the LD-250 will be less than with the StormTracker.
However, this will not normally affect the accuracy. |
It is our recommendation, that if you do not require a stand-alone portable
lightning detection unit, to purchase the StormTracker card instead of the
LD-250. This recommendation is based not only on the difference in
performance between the 2 units, but also because of the lower price of the
StormTracker.
