This. I have a PT and a Cinqo and the PT isn't very reliable. I guess in the grand scheme if you're doing 85-90 RPM a few missed strokes isn't going to throw things radically off especially since the 705 will read data once a second at best but anytime you can have more reliable and hopefully more accurate data, it's a good thing.
