But don't forget that if you use one of these then you need to carry a

Besides the LW and other more expensive data loggers, are there any

other
loggers available that can be used for UK BGA badge claims?

See the following page:

In the UK it looks like The QSTART BT-Q1000X and the FlyWithCE units.

This will most likely change quite soon. During last IGC meeting the
proposal was that users of those flight recorders will not need
separate barograph and that GPS altitude will be accepted. We can
expect some additional restrictions (because GPS altitude is not as
accurate). With this only world and national records and diamond
flights will be off limits for those devoices. And of course gliders
with motor – devices do not have engine sensor.

I believe that they are already good value, because for low price you
get device that is very simple to use and at least for flyWithCE
Flight recorder you get also flyWithCE Logbook software. If you are
not too demanding, then this software will be enough for you to also
check flights in Google Maps or Google Earth (also in 3D). For more
information check: http://www.flywithce.com/recorder.html.
