I love this product. It arrived very quickly, and was very easy to get going, and set up. Instructions came in the box, and are also available on Garmin’s website (manuals etc). Is it better than the sensor which comes on the device itself (fenix for example). I don’t really think so. Once you can tell how “innacurate” your temperature reading is on the fenix (because it’s built in and against one’s wrist), by comparing it to your smartphone’s temperature (using any weather app… for example it says it’s 75 degress outside where you are but your watch says its 85 … it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to look at the temp and deduct 5.. or 10 degress … whatever from the shown temp when your looking at it). But its nice to NOT have to do that too… which is why i bought one of these. Beside’s … i didn’t want to know, either, what the temperature was at the local airport.. or the inaccurate temperature of the wristwatch, because it’s against my sweaty arm. So i bought this.. the result? Its VERY easy to loose. So i “taped” it into the little snap-in holder it comes with, put a lanyard around it, and wear it around my neck. Even doing this.. if you read the documentation it comes with.. it tells you it will be innacurate (like the senser which which comes built into the watch anyways, because the thing is against your body, or in one’s pocket etc etc etc..). It tells you to hold it out (like clipped to one’s belt), away from one’s body heat to get a better reading. Unfortunately, ninety percent of people that try to do this? Loose the darned thing. Lol. Therefore, your better off doing what i did. Put a piece of tape around it, once you’ve got the better inside it, and string a lanyard through it and then allow it to hang from around your neck. It’s not weird looking at all, or you can put it under your shirt too.. because in the end? Its always the same temperature difference that the built into the watch sensor … sensor… is anyways. For example, i went for a walk this evening. When i left the house it was 68 degrees outside. The tempe’ unit claimed it was 84 degrees, because it was still warm from sitting on my bureau. After about ten minutes adjusting to the climate outside, it read between 74.2 and 77 degrees… which was between five and eight degrees off. Im sure in freezing cold temps it will be as inaccurate if not more so... But it was still worth the price to get the temp (minus adjustments one makes mentally for the outside temp vs the always seen temp difference noticed between your phone’s weather app and the temp listed on their own watch device; or whatever). You will get used to the difference and make the adjustment mentally without having to give it too much thought in no time.
Again.. this device is VERY easy to loose.. so if you buy one. Be sure to “attach” it to you in some way. And then… if your watch vibrates (even though you haven’t reached one of your goals), be sure to double check the watch dial to see why it’s vibrating. It might be trying to tell you.. that you’ve lost contact with your tempe’ sensor. And you need to go and look for it back on the road someplace. Most workout pants have a small pocket for a house key, or a twenty or whatever for such small items, which also holds things sufficiently away from the heat of your skin, that it should be accurate enough. This is what i do when it’s not hanging from my neck.
