Distance calculated on runningahead.com : 6.63km
Pace calculated on runningahead.com : 5.53/km
Distance measure on Nike+ Sportsband : 7.19km
Pace measure on Nike+ Sportsband : 5.25/km
Results: 8% difference wo any calibration.
Using Switcheasy to attached sensor to shoes. At least three rows of laces were attached to the unit.
By the press of the button, was able to make connection to the sensor. Started using my normal pace. As the sensor was secure with three rows of laces, I dun really feel anything on the feet.
Only issue is that, there is no backlight so running at night, will pose a problem in monitoring your runs..... As I was wearing my own sport watch so, timing on the sportsband wasn't much of a issue.
Ended the run wo any issue, just by a press of a button. Only issue left is uploading the data via Singnet.... hear that the Nike team is still resolving with Singnet on this issue.
Apart form this. Costing $99.90 for the sports band. $16.50 for the switcheasy unit. Its a steal if you compare with brand like polar, suuto & garmin.
Though not a perfect measuring gadget, it works for me & for my traning......
