Yep, cost will certainly be a discussion point for shot clocks.
Can't disagree that in some situations it would be a cost that might be difficult to bear in some situations but its not a huge cost.

You can get individual clocks for less 300 and a decent package with two clocks and the wireless device to run them for less than a thousand.

If the high school kids run a summer day camp for elementary aged kids and charge them 50 bucks a pop and give them a 5 dollar tshirt and a week of basketball you've got them paid for.

You are talking about half the cost of 1 set of nice uniforms.
