What's the difference between the LINK Body Monitoring Armband and the LINK Armband Weight Management System? I still do not understand!

I think they are the same device. It is possible that the name or branding changed when Bodymedia was sold to Jawbone.

I seriously doubt this unit will track w/out the armband transmitter. You should direct your question to the good folks at SOLOSHOT though. They are VERY helpful over there. Tell Kristen I sent ya! :-P kristen@soloshot.com

The strap. You pay more for the soft strap. The monitor/sensor is the same. Good luck after you replace the HRM battery.

I had returned it. The armband was bigger than my arm. You should measure your arm and compare it to the band's.

When combined with the app MyFitnessPal. Then it will give you the calories burned. But it really doesn't know if your running or just moving your arm fast. It does a great job of tracking steps and movement during the day and sleep. But you have to tell it if your working out.

All I can say is that I wore both the New Balance watch and my Polar watch and oh boy...what a major difference in calorie calculations. I trust my polar watch because when I work out at the gym my Polar watch matches calories burned on the machine I am using but the New Balance watch was way off by 150+ calories...You decide! I wouldn't purchase it over a Polar watch but another suggestion is the New Fitbit....awesome fitness trainer device!!

I don't know. More importantly., it really doesn't synq with the app very well. I have an iPhone 5 and complained about the app so they sent me a new band for free, and it had the same issue. I Wouldn't buy this if I were you. I know it's less expensive than most other activity monitors, but it's not even worth what they charge you here.

Interesting! I am looking at buying the 405 without the strap, as I still have the one from my now stolen 305. The Garmin support website says that some versions of the 405 are compatible with the HR monitor. How can you tell if the one you are buying is compatible? Or is it just a trick to make you buy the more expensive version?

The sports tracker app tracks calories burned. The heart monitor just links to the app to track your heart rate during your activity

It's adjustable.... I bought the band since I needed it for working out after weight loss surgery... it works great as the weight drops and my Arms change.... in regards to young adults my little brother who is 17 and 6"4 uses the band with no issues as Well...there arm band is Velcro and adjustable

Not certain what your concern is. I have this scale and love it. I don't understand the concern. I have stents and they don't interfere with any electronic devices. The scale works perfectly and is very accurate and repeatable (i.e. repeated weighing returns the same weight) The scale is only half the story. Withings provides a website and app to show your history and trends. It is great. The scale won't guarantee you lose weight but it will definitely make you aware (and feel guilty) if you're not. I like the trending tools even better than the scale....and I love it.

To me, this one seems to run on the smaller side of workout armbands. I don't recall sizes being listed as options so I think I would probably look at a different model/brand. I sometimes switch back and forth between using an arm band and something like a SPI belt. Some people may think I look dorky using the SPI belt if I'm not running :) but I honestly find it sometimes is just more convenient for my gym workouts.

As far as I know, this is false. The Core device along with the other BodyMedia gadgets must be worn on the upper arm with the sensors making direct contact with the skin in the mid-triceps area. This is how the device has been calibrated by the factory to calculate your calorie expenditure throughout the day. It will not work connected to any other part of the body.

I've had both. Essentially they both operate in the same way, but the One is smaller and syncs better for me. And I like the silent alarm. The holder is a bit clumsy, but it doesn't fall off as easily as the ultra did (I lost my first one, it managed to edge its way of my belt loop at some point of the day). I like that I can now sync to my droid phone or ipad too (wirelessly). Love my fitbit, can't live without it, it keeps me on track.

The "WearLink+" is the heart rate monitor worn on a chest strap (not the FT7). FT7 uses CR1632.

No idea. This was my first anti static wrist band, so can't compare the two.
