    The only multiple event stopwatch that I used was the Ultrak
    499.  It could handle 5 events had 500 memory and you could
    download the data to your PC.  Unfortunately a light ding on a
    telescope can kill it so I can't recommend it from a durabiity
    standpoint.
    
    For lots of memory there is the Robic SC-808 which has 200
    memory plus backlighting.  The one I owned shorted out several
    times, then died from exposure to dew.
    
    (Time is not my friend)   :-)
    
    My Robic SC-800 has 50 memory place and has been reliable.  I
    also own a 100 Memory Water Resistant Stopwatch from
    Technika.  So far so good.
