[IL-Talk] Sunu Band

Yes I haven't gotten rid of it. Just remember you won't be able to update
the software. The Bluetooth module is not working.

I also found the it not practical.  I had version 1 and it did not point
straight ahead.  I workout and there is a small elbo bend, thus I had to
hold my arm behind me just to get it to work.  Also when wearing long
sleeves this was a  major problem.
  I liked it when I held it awkwardly, but that was not practical either.

Subject: [IL-Talk] Sunu Band

Hi all,

 

I have an older sunu band which works except for the BlueTooth module. This
means the user won't be able to update it. I'm not interested in a new band
as I think the product has been a huge disappointment. Would anyone like it
for free? I bought it from APH a couple of years ago and they won't replace
or repair it. I contacted Sunu and they wanted me to buy a new band plus a
lifetime maintenance plan. I say forget it.

 

The experience has left a really bad taste in my mouth about these so-called
mobility aids. I think companies are making false claims. Nothing beats a
cane or dog for getting around. If someone wants the band I can bring it to
a chapter meeting since I won't be attending the state convention in person.

 

Thanks,

Dan
