Original Rechargeable System


Original Rechargeable Transponder

The latest generation rechargeable transponder optimally designed for motocross. The Original Rechargeable Transponder transmits a signal 1000 times/second. That signal is detected and processed by the IDEC decoder to identify the driver and the exact moment the driver crosses the start/finish line with 1/10,000th of a second precision. Charge lasts up to 7 days. Green light at top flashes the number of days remaining. Fast recharge (max 3 hours, typically 1 hour). MOUNTED VERTICALLY.

IDEC Decoder

Using advanced pattern recognition, The IDEC decoder can determine with great accuracy and precision the instant each vehicle with a transponder crosses the center of the detection loop. Information is sent to a PC running our FREE Race Manager Software for analysis and storage. Data can then be distributed to other devices such as scoreboards, printers, wireless hand-held lap time viewers, and other third party devices. The IDEC can be used standalone or in a network of multiple timing points. INCLUDES BALUN, LOOP ANTENNA, COAX, AND NETWORK CABLES.

The IDEC Decoder supports multiple protocols and is compatible with:


  • Apex Timing
  • AxWare
  • Chronolec
  • ClubSpeed
  • LiveTime
  • MoScore
  • NatSoft
  • RaceTrackInnovations
  • Vola Racing MSports
  • Vola Racing Circuit Pro
  • and MANY MORE

    45 Slot Charger

    Capable of charging 45 transponders, the bulk charger is also a convenient carrying case made from a tough Mil-Spec, IP-67 case. Typical charge time is ~ 3 hour when full of transponders. LED lights on the transponder indicate full charge while in the charging case. When removed from the case the transponder green LED indicates approximate number of days of battery life left (up to 7 days). A red LED indicates when the transponder charge has less than 1 day remaining. SUPPORTS NEW GENERATION TRANSPONDERS ONLY.

    Original Personal Charger

    Transponders are quickly charged with the convenient charging cradle. Supports new generation rechargeable transponders. Max charge time is ~ 3 hours. Typical charge time is ~ 1 hour. LED lights on the transponder indicate full charge while in the charging cradle. When removed from the cradle the transponder green LED indicates approximate number of days of battery life left (up to 7 days). A red LED indicates when the transponder charge has less than 1 day remaining.

    Pro Pouch

    The Westhold G3 Pouch allows you to mount your rechargeable transponder to the frame of your car in an upright position. Suitable for G3 Car, G3 Kart, and G3 MX transponders. Large grommet holes allow you to zip-tie the case to the underside of the car. There is a clear plastic window where the indicator LEDs can be seen.

    Cost of Ownership

    There is no comparison. Ownership of Westhold equipment requires a one-time purchase. "Ownership" of subscription based transponders has customers paying again and again. Without a subscription our competitor’s transponder becomes an expensive paperweight.
