Clearance - Laser V Fitness Activity Monitor NAVACTMON1 4 or more $5.50ea +$11.25 (Sydney) Shipping @Laserco

20

This is an activity tracker that counts your steps and pairs with your phone to record your activity. Also can set it up to notify you of calls and SMSs. I'd call it a poor man's (or ozbargainer's) Fitbit.

Price

RRP listed at $89.95, clearance price at laserco.com.au seems to vary from day to day approximately $22 to $38 but you can ignore that because the bargain is the small print 4 or more $5.50 each. At that price it's cheaper to buy one for each member of the family which is what I did. I wouldn't let my 9 year old have a $100+ Fitbit but $5 is a cheaper than a watch.

App

Note the documentation mentions the Laser Navig8r Move app but it seems to be no longer supported and there's a sticker on the box and a note on the website recommending the 3rd party Zeroner app. The app looked a little dodgy to me asking for a ridiculous list of permissions which I turned off in Android and it still works.

Features I use
  • Counts steps
  • Pairs with iOS or Android 4.3+ via Bluetooth
  • Rechargeable battery lasts 3 or 4 days
  • Charges via USB in about half an hour
  • Comes with 3 wristbands in black, blue and pink
  • Accurate watch because it gets the time from your phone
  • Buzzes when you reach the 10,000 steps default goal
  • Buzzes and displays caller id for incoming calls and SMSs
Warranty

It's listed as a clearance item, 3 months warranty.
I ordered 6 and one was faulty in that it didn't charge but I filled out a return authorisation and they sent me a replacement in a couple of days.

Discount Code

You might be able to get a code for 15% off if you subscriber to Laser's newsletter or use the code TechGuideOffer which was supposed to expire in March but still worked for me a couple of weeks ago.

Shipping

The $11.25 shipping was to Sydney and seemed to be flat rate as I also bought a bunch of other clearance items to use up a $100 gift voucher I won.

Other Sale items

I can also recommend these sale items which I got at the same time to make best use of the flat shipping cost (prices seem to vary from day to day)
Universal Windscreen Mount $3.98-$4.98
iPad Bluetooth Keyboard Case Stand Black $14.99-$24.98
LED Light Built-in Wireless Bluetooth Speaker $7.49-$14.99 or 2 for $10 (currently out of stock)
Headset Stereo Bluetooth V3.0 Universal Black $11.99-$17.99
Car Charger Audio Receiver with FM Output $19.98-$24.98

Benefits

Before buying these I was sceptical about effectively gamifying exercise and my mates' obsession with their expensive Fitbits. However I must say I have been more active in the two weeks I've had this - clearly struggling to get to 2K steps some days unless I deliberately get up and go for a walk. So clearly a good investment of $5 - we'll see how long it lasts.

My kids found that playing their piano scales racked up hundreds if not thousands of steps - that's a good incentive for them to practice every day.
