Head-to-head
FlightScope Mevo Gen2 vs FlightScope Mevo+ 2024: Gen2 extends practice time, consecutive sessions still need a charging plan
The short answer
If two golfers share consecutive range appointments, arrange charging even for Gen2. Mevo+ needs a mid-day power plan sooner. Neither rating includes the phone, tablet or PC used for results.
Before you choose
The reasoning and the trade-offs
Two three-hour sessions consume the full Gen2 battery rating
Mevo Gen2 is rated for 6 hours and Mevo+ 2024 for 3 hours. Two three-hour sessions need 6 hours, reaching Gen2’s rating and doubling the Mevo+ rating.
What this is based on
2 × 3 = 6 hours. 6 ÷ 3 = 2. No practical reserve is left on Gen2 at its published upper limit.
Main trade-off
FlightScope Mevo+ 2024 Edition
A limited-flight room needs about 8 feet behind the ball and at least 8 feet of ball flight, plus a metallic dot or Titleist RCT ball for accurate spin.

What matters in practice
The differences that matter
Two three-hour sessions consume the full Gen2 battery rating
Mevo Gen2 is rated for 6 hours and Mevo+ 2024 for 3 hours. Two three-hour sessions need 6 hours, reaching Gen2’s rating and doubling the Mevo+ rating.
How we reached this conclusion
2 × 3 = 6 hours. 6 ÷ 3 = 2. No practical reserve is left on Gen2 at its published upper limit.
Mevo+ lists four more included E6 courses
The checked packages contain eight courses for Gen2 and twelve for Mevo+ 2024, a difference of four courses.
How we reached this conclusion
12 minus 8 = 4. Twelve is 50% more than eight by course count. This does not compare course preference, graphical quality or paid add-ons.
The upper end of Mevo+ limited flight adds 5ft to the layout
Gen2 specifies 8ft rear plus 8ft front. Mevo+ specifies 8ft rear and 8 to 13ft front, so its documented range reaches 21ft.
How we reached this conclusion
Gen2: 8 + 8 = 16ft. Mevo+: 8 + 8 = 16ft minimum and 8 + 13 = 21ft upper documented setup. 21 minus 16 = 5ft.

Meaningful differences
What changes the fit
| What changes | FlightScope Mevo Gen2 | FlightScope Mevo+ 2024 Edition | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Placement | 8ft behind the ball and 8ft limited ball flight | 8ft behind the ball and 8 to 13ft limited ball flight | Measure the usable rear and front distances separately. Beside-ball cameras still need safe swing and impact clearance. |
| Viewing results | FS Golf on a compatible phone, tablet or PC | FS Golf on a compatible phone, tablet or PC | A built-in numeric screen, a full touchscreen and a companion app create different practice routines. |
| Power arrangement | Rechargeable battery rated up to 6 hours with USB-C | Rechargeable battery rated up to 3 hours | Include the phone or computer and any continuous power cables when planning a complete session. |
| Ball and club preparation | Aluminum stickers or Titleist RCT balls for accurate limited-flight spin | Aluminum stickers required by the checked limited-flight setup instructions | Supported markings and stickers are measurement requirements. They are not interchangeable across brands. |
| Software ownership | FS Golf and eight included E6 courses. Other packages have separate terms | FS Golf and twelve included E6 courses in the checked 2024 package | Check the exact included license, compatible device and paid features before comparing total setup costs. |
| Practice location | Indoor and outdoor use | Indoor and outdoor use | An indoor-only restriction remains a hard limit even if the hardware is small enough to carry. |
What you give up
Every choice has a cost
If you choose FlightScope Mevo Gen2
- Accurate limited-flight spin requires stickers or radar-friendly balls.
If you choose FlightScope Mevo+ 2024 Edition
- Club path and face data cost extra through the Pro Package, and simulator battery life is published at up to 1.5 hours.
Recommendation switch
The decision flips if...
You want six-hour rated battery operation
Choose FlightScope Mevo Gen2. If two golfers share consecutive range appointments, arrange charging even for Gen2. Mevo+ needs a mid-day power plan sooner. Neither rating includes the phone, tablet or PC used for results.
You want the checked twelve-course E6 bundle
Choose FlightScope Mevo+ 2024 Edition. Read the exact bundle at checkout because old and new FlightScope packages can coexist. A larger included library can favor Mevo+ even when the newer sensor offers longer battery operation.

Mevo+ lists four more included E6 courses

The upper end of Mevo+ limited flight adds 5ft to the layout
Both can start from a 16ft sensor-to-net arrangement in their checked instructions. Do not interpret the longer Mevo+ option as proof that Gen2 is more accurate in a short room. Also allow space behind the net for safe impact deflection.
What this comparison cannot tell you
- Room calculations describe sensor geometry. They do not certify a safe room width, ceiling height or net installation.
- Battery calculations use manufacturer upper ratings and exclude the companion display.
- No side-by-side accuracy, shot-tracking reliability or simulator latency test is claimed.
