Garmin XERO “Power Factor” what do I use this for?

D̷e̷v̷i̷l̷D̷o̷c̷A̷Z̷ · Dec 30, 2024

I finally used the app to look at all the data available.

The field I don’t understand is:

POWER FACTOR (PF)
Displays the power factor for the most recent shot. Power factor is a measurement of the momentum of the projectile.

What/How am I supposed to use this data?

From what I read, my take on this is:

Energy on target or "knock down power."

But at what distance?

Guessing it's at your "zero" distance, but the manual is rather lackluster in that information!!! I don't have one [yet] ... so I'll be watching the thread for others who likely have more knowledge! LOL

That is most likely providing you with your power factor for competitions. USPSA/IDPA/IPSC, etc. Seems to match up, anyway.
