i know some cheaper similar products had major issues with accuracy. how accurate, reliable, &amp; consistent are the results obtained with this product?

This is not a scientific instrument. However it will tell you pretty closely what your BAC is. I am convinced that it has saved me a couple of times. The only time we fooled it, is when you used it either right after drinking or used it twice within 30 minutes. Because you have emptied your lungs and therefore there is nothing to read. As for consistency it tracks results, I found it to be very consistent. I highly recommend this product, it is inconvenient to hang out and wait after results, but well worth it in the long run.

Just got mine a year ago. It is very accurate within it's stated variables. I have two friends with iphones- they are all over the area while my eTrex 20 usually takes me very close, if not right to, the cache. Two thumbs up!!

I have not compared the accuracy of this product. However, just today I tested my filtered water and then decided to test the water as it came from the spigot. The water from the spigot showed over a 2.0 reading. I check my filtered water periodically. If the reading is near or above 0.6, I then change the filter on my pitcher. I've been very pleased.

My works fine. Accuracy isn't an issue. Good quality. I use mine in a attic crawl space to keep down the moisture levels.

I have no other device to compare it with so I have no idea of it's accuracy. We use it for comparitive purposes so for that it's useful. The "manual" is very tiny page, with a tiny chart for weighting and frankly I've misplaced it. Other than that, there is little info. However it does seem very well made. I has the feel of a Fluke multimeter.

I have not. Without comparing to a calibrated gauge, you won't know which has gauge is actually the accurate one. What I like about this gauge is that it gives me percise consistent results.. Hard to tell how accurate they are however like I mentioned.

Hoenestly, for BBT readings that need to be very specific, reliable/consistently accurate AND predictive, I do not know. I am sensitive that a lot depends on these readings so my suggestion is: if you were going to buy this anyway, test out its accuracy and reliability (ie, repeat temperature taking without time delays) and graph results; compare these results to the thermometer you already use or some gold standard thermometer. Which thermometer has greater variation (ie, the total difference or average difference) is greater in 1 than the other. The 1 with less variation is more reliable. Or, use whichever thermometer the clinic recommends. Best wishes--Ellen Hoenestly, for BBT readings that need to be very specific, reliable/consistently accurate AND predictive, I do not know.

I received my scale with no problems, I even dropped the display and it still works! (I finally decided to hang it on the wall so I would not keep dropping it) But I don't see where I had to wet my feet and it still works fine with dry feet... I have another Fat Analyzer scale and they are within .01% of each other, so I think they are pretty accurate. Maybe you got a lemon one... mine only takes a few seconds.

Almost similar to my other scale. I can say the accuracy almost hit 100%..i have not compare with airport yet.. So far it gave same measure against floor weight scale.It is a reliable device..

I'm guessing you mean the pedometer? I think it works as well as pedometers in general work. I've never owned a pedometer that was 100% accurate. I bought the watch for my dad so I haven't used it myself. He hasn't complained that it doesn't work but he feels like I do, not many pedometers are accurate.

I've been using my BK 2709B in my repair business for two years and It has performed flawlessly. It's accuracy is on target so I highly recommend it. As for durability, I own two fluke meters that the LCD screen no longer shows all the segments. The cost of repairing the fluke is more than the cost of the BK 2709B!

Make sure you are not picking up something behind the target. I have never had any accuracy problems with mine. Also, how do you know that it is 100 instead of 90? This model doesn't have gps btw.

I have used it (the 780) for 2 1/2 months. I did get an ERR message twice but the device started the process again on its own initiative in the three pressure average mode. I checked this one for accuracy against a very old Omron, about 25 years, that had been checked against the one in the primary care's office. It has been consistent for the time I have used it.

I used mine for ~1 year and the results were consistent. SO from personal experience--it's good for at least a year.

My answer would be a big YES... it seems very accurate and I often compare it to the one my Step-mom uses daily at her Hospital job.It's consistant within 2 or 3 percent. My husband and I are in our late 50's and we both use it once every morning...again after our daily workout at the Gym...and again a few hours after the Gym workouts. six times a day and it has never failed to give good solid readings.

Similar! But accuracy/procedure different. One is infrared, kitchen temp,accurate is best attained by probe/gauge/ dial, the B&D; leak detector? I have a $2,500.00 so called state of the art, professional contractors tool! And the B&D; does almost as precision results! In closing, very good tool. Only down side/con: I attached a lanyard on the heel of its handle, long enough to hang around neck.or belt clipAs this review just came in, I'm using it right now at customers home.

I wish I could sincerely answer your question. This device has not been the best so far. Constant calibration and off results. I would suggest investing a little bit more money on a better scale.
