This might have nothing to do with what you're actually after...but what I use is a freeware prgram called LeafDrums. You can use it as a computerized metronome very easily by just making a measure using something like a wood block, and have it loop continuously.

Tempo is easily changed, and is in BPM.

I use a Boss Dr.Beat DB-30. Allows to use different rhythms, not only a straight metronome.

I use a Taktell Mini. Fits in the accessory box easily.

I have a good old windup Taktell that's been keeping time for some 35+ years, but if I'm playing anywhere near the computer, this works fine:

And it's FREE. :-) Hope it helps, CS

I use a Korg MA-20

Fits well in the pocket, and does anything I need.

I like the Korg KDM-2.

It is a the loudest of the standalone digital metronomes that I have tried.

At 4.5" x 4" x 2" it is too big to fit in a pocket, though.
