I like my Lii600 except for the incessant beeping. It would’ve been simple to include an option to turn the sound off completely.

I may open mine and clip the beeper right off or do the tape over the beeper mod that is quite popular.

I’m in!

I’m optimistic it will continue to improve with time.

In my experience there are few crowdsourced products that continue to be significantly developed after the initial sales have finished unless they are astoundingly well-reviewed to continue selling.

Pebble was one of the few exceptions for one that I funded. Even then, once the Apple Watch came out they got gobbled up by (garmin) and all development on the originals died.

A pretty terrible idea.

The permanently installed rechargeable battery can also be seen as a disadvantage.

Absolute dealbreaker. I was ready to purchase then I saw integrated battery. Browser closed.

Stand back guys, we have some sort of savant genius here!

Likewise. I love early evening sunsets. I like it dark at night.

You may not need one but as someone that has a medical condition constantly logged by a smartwatch there absolutely is a serious need by others.

It’s like saying I don’t need a wheelchair, nobody else does either, which is crazy.

Got nothing for you. Good luck.

Hmm. I’m assuming like every other sector there are lots of fakes of dubious quality that are virtually indistinguishable from real ones except they break much more easily.

Unless you’re buying from Leatherman directly you have a much greater chance of getting a fake that’s priced high but made cheaply with inferior materials to scam people. Just try and get a real SD card on Amazon. Probably 60% or more fakes for the big name ones and huge profits for the criminals.

And the countries you mentioned can produce quality products if the company ordering the products cares enough to demand it and reject anything substandard.

See Apple. But you better believe they have QC experts at every level and if the suppliers don’t deliver they’ll never see another dime from Apple.

I have a Free P4 and feel it’s on par with their earlier products.

That said you can always smell the influence of an MBA screwing stuff up for an otherwise good company to “make them more profitable”.

More companies need to tell these idiots to pound sand because their paper education is worthless.

The only good MBA is an unemployed MBA.
