Cheapest Grobag Egg Digital Room Thermometer


So it gives the temperature - nothing else ... and not even that very accurately. Disappointing since the grobags are great and their sleep-suits are some of the best (esp for "long" babies) ... I followed their "dressing your baby" temperature guide with grobags and used the thermometer and, (stupid me), my poor little bubba was so cold all night that he eventually ended up with bronchiolitis .. and was sick for a month (that's a new mother for you ... never knowing how warm/cool to dress them). Should've just used common sense and thrown the thermometer out ... take care.

Cheap Polar FT7 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Black / Gold)


Great Product ! Have used it for a couple of weeks now and don't regret the purchase.. works just like it should.

Picks up your heart beat immediately once your 'strapped' in. Set up was easy with the manual in hand. Once you get the idea of how the menu works its a breeze ! Easy enough to be used by the 'technically challenged'.

Wearlink strap is comfortable and one forgets its really there once you begin your physcial activity.

Watch stores statistical data ( calories burned, avg./max heart rate per workout, length of workout, workout time in fat or fitness zone ) which is a great way to monitor progress. Stores data for weeks if one so wishes.

I use the watch to gather data and then trsf it to a spreadsheet for graphical representation. Great way to stay motivated !

Thus far I'm sold on the FT7 ! Get more detail about Polar FT7 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Black / Gold).

Buy Panasonic EW3153W Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Wireless Display


I can have very high blood pressure readings and have to monitor them frequently. Over the years I have tried many types of cuffs but this is my favorite one. I have finally put away my Omrons to use this Panasonic exclusively. It is not only the accuracy, speed and convenience that I like but also the fact that it never errors out - no matter how high or low my readings, I always get a result even in the winter with long sleeves. Instead of the usual wrap around cuff, you insert your arm in the tube (like the ones in the drugstore). True, it is a bit bulky and not as easy for travel, but convenience and accuracy make up for that. Before I got this cuff, taking my blood pressure could be a struggle that would raise my blood pressure! Now it is a piece of cake.Get more detail about Panasonic EW3153W Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Wireless Display.
