The ZMF-II is a very common clock for individuals to buy as the readout is bright and clear and the audio/visual feedback is nice. The downsides are the size and batteries required as they generally do not fit within a backgammon board like a LEAP clock might. This is the clock I own and use and just carry it along.
Thanks for this video. :) I'd like to know , between friends what would be the normal time settings for 7, 11 or 15 point matches? Is there a 'rule of thumb' relation between time allotments and match lengths?
Chess player here. Just bought one of these and am thankful for the video.

Thank you for the demonstration it really helped me
And what do you think about the quality of this chess clock? Is it good, durable?

The baseline is to use 2min/pt for each player. So 7pt = 14min, 11pt = 22min, 15pt = 30.
Terrible
