Technology Q-4 Launch
PINSENSE™ WITH SURGE™
Eliminate target acquisition guesswork with PinSense and Surge technologies. PinSense easily distinguishes the pin from background objects, automatically filtering out obstructions, eliminating false readings, and providing you with a visual target lock-on. Once the lock and distance have been acquired, Surge automatically activates, initiating a haptic response in the form of a vibration. Together, these features provide visible, physical, and audible feedback so you can be confident in your ranging.
SLOPE MODE
The Cobalt Q-6 Slope features an integrated digital accelerometer/inclinometer to precisely measure angles with a high degree of accuracy. Measuring with an exactness of +/- 0.5 degrees, Cobalt rangefinders yield a refined calculation that takes elevation variation into account to increase your ranging confidence and ultimately your shot placement. The Q-6 Slope also features the SmartSwitch - an integrated switch that allows you to easily toggle Slope Mode on and off. That means no more fumbling around with complicated or time-consuming menu navigation when you need turn off Slope Mode for regulation play. In short, SmartSwitch conveniently allows you to maintain use of precise slope-compensation calculations during normal play, and allows you to easily disengage Slope Mode to conform to USGA tournament regulations.
PREMIUM OPTICS
Because a rangefinder is only as good as its optics and its technology, we only use the best glass available. This includes fully, multi-coated lenses, and a fully adjustable diopter, features only found in high performance rangefinders. And because of these features we pride ourselves with having some of the best light transmission, brightest image display, and highest resolution optics in the industry.
SMARTSWITCH™ (Q-6 only)
The Q-6 Slope features the SmartSwitch - an integrated switch that allows you to easily toggle Slope Mode on and off. That means no more fumbling around with complicated or time-consuming menu navigation when you need turn off Slope Mode for regulation play. In short, SmartSwitch conveniently allows you to maintain use of precise slope-compensation calculations during normal play, and allows you to easily disengage Slope Mode to conform to USGA tournament regulations.
BRILLIANT PROJECTION DISPLAY™ (Q-6 only)
We know it can be frustrating viewing the display in variable lighting conditions. To help with this, we designed a multi-stage brightness level display. At 9 settings, the Cobalt Brilliant Projection Display sets the new standard among rangefinders - so much so that we got a patent on it.
ADAPTIVE CONTRAST DISPLAY (Q-4 only)
A built-in light sensor reads ambient light and adjusts the red brightness intensity based on the measured light reading. This feature is 100% automatic so no need to adjust manually.
WATERPROOF (IPX7)
Rain doesn't keep you off the course, and likewise, rain doesn't keep a Cobalt rangefinder hidden away and out of the elements. All our rangefinders have an IPX7 waterproofness certification meaning our units can withstand submergence in water for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter.
DURABILITY
The average golfer uses their rangefinder approximately 20-40 times per round depending on the course. With all the potential wear and tear a rangefinder can experience with this type of heavy use, durability is an important consideration. Because we design all of our rangefinders around an extremely durable chassis and housing, this way we circumvent any potential issues commonly associated with extensive rangefinder use. We also stand behind the quality of our products, so all of our rangefinders are backed by a lifetime warranty.
Ergonomically-friendly features allow you to spend more time focusing on the game. The Illumination Dial allows you to quickly increase or decrease the display brightness to match variable lighting conditions. Within the dial, a Yard/Meters Button lets you set your preferred unit of measure. The textured rubberized golf grip and Fire Button ensures the rangefinder sits securely and comfortably in the hand. Similarly, the rubber-padded adjustable eyecup extends that comfort from your hand to your eye, allowing for a customized fit based on your facial structure.
SMARTSWITCH™Our background in the industry led us to create the first ever SmartSwitch, an all-in-one user interface developed to easily engage slope mode, adjust display brightness, and change the unit of measure.
The all-in-one user interface utilizes a hall-effect sensor designed to measure the magnitude of a magnetic field. And because mechanical switches can fail over time and are prone to water intrusion, the magnetic SmartSwitch is designed to prevent mechanical switch failures and water intrusion. The benefit to you is there is no more fumbling around with complicated or time-consuming menu navigation.
SmartSwitch features:
1. Illumination Dial: adjust display brightness to your desire.
2. Yard/Meters Button: easily change unit of measure by pressing the center of the dial
3. Slope Lever: easily turn Slope functionality ON or OFF
4. Illuminated Slope Indicator: external indicator for Slope. If on, a red LED will be illuminated
