Oregon Scientific PE980BK AnyWear 3D Pedometer, Black

Oregon Scientific PE980BK AnyWear 3D Pedometer, Black Review



My employer just gave me one of these and I searched the value here on Amazon. The price has come down considerably. It used to be . So I had to edit my review about it not being worth the money. Now it is worth it. It is an awesome pedometer!. It fits anywhere I want to keep it without bothering me. I've had it now for almost a year.

The most difficult feature of the pedometer was that it did not have a trip feature AND it resets every night at midnight. That means if you wanted to know exactly how many steps you take on a specific walking course/activity then you will have to look at your number of steps before and after and then subtract the difference. It seems to me that if they can make a cool gadget that measures steps and computes caloric burning they could surely make it have a resettable trip feature that comes standard. I like that it automatically resets because I would probably forget to zero it out if I had to. But I would at least like the option. Basically you set it up once and never change anything ever again. That is convenient.

I went to New Orleans and I was trying to keep track of how many steps I took while I was in the city one evening and at midnight it reset. That isn't a big problem but I would have loved to know how many steps I took that day up until 2AM. My pedometer reset at midnight because I live in a different time zone.

I would also like to see weekend steps versus a hiking weekend without having to go back and look at the day and personally add three days of steps. Just a minor inconvenience but again this thing should do it. That being said I don't know if I would pay any more for that feature. What you really want is how many steps are you taking in general. That is easily accomplished wit this pedometer.
