Hybrid Smartwatch with ECG, Heart Rate & Oximeter - ScanWatch | Withings

The hybrid smartwatch that detects atrial fibrillation, with ECG and an oximeter for SpO2 measurements—plus activity and sleep tracking.

www.withings.com

I've just received this watch. I chose the one with the blue dial and the rose gold body.

With it, I will be able to find out if I experience an atrial fibrillation episode in my sleep as it can take my heart rate 24 hours a day, as well as other health measuring features including an oximeter.

This product is made in France and sold from Withings US warehouse located in North Carolina. It is approved by US medical associations and cardiologists. While it provides an ECG recording feature which is available for US, unfortunately this feature has not been approved in Canada so far.

FDA cleared Withings Scanwatch for SpO2 functionality and ECG measurements:

Yamaha TSR-700 from Costco. It replaced my eight year old Yamaha RX-V675. I am so glad I did. It has multi-point calibration (8 points) and allows setting up crossover frequency for individual speakers. After that my Polk signature series speakers came to life, especially the central channel. Funny how technology works, TSR-700 last month cost me what RX-V675 cost me 8 years ago. And, it's much better!

Congrats did you get everything working ok so far? I'm looking to get one. Seems like a good deal at $399.

Ordered the XL size monolith tv stand from Monoprice. This thing has crazy weight capacity.

Purchased a TT Riser for my receiver in my room and living room. I'll post pics once it arrives. I like the glass look and price.

The 60" double wide one?

The 60" double wide one?

Yes. But haven’t received it yet.

Nice... keep us posted. I'm interested in the smaller double wide and curious if you can remove the front center post without issue... for a small center channel. Their 4 tier rack is awesome, I bought it for my son's room, so I can only assume the same will be said about the double wides.

photos in the reviews show the center post removed on the shorter double unit.

Ha... didn't even think to look at the reviews, thanks for pointing that out to me!!

You can build one level high (either post height) and you can build without center post if you want. I’m guessing that may lower the 300lbs limit per shelf a bit though. LOL

Got the 4 new recent-pressings LP's courtesy of a co-worker who I recently helped select and install a new 5.1 surround system. The KEF T205 set of three T301 and two T101 thin, wall-mount speakers fit the bill for him, and in keeping within his $2500 max budget my dealer got him into a near-mint NAD T758v3 AV receiver and a new SVS SB3000 Micro. He's thrilled with the sound, but just over the moon with how his wife loves it.

For helping him, he sent me a $50 gift certificate to The Sound of Vinyl and these are what I chose. I had to chip in $19.70, but that was well worth it. They're all good, but that Metallica Black album is a real killer. Unreal bass slam.

The other thing I got (but paid minimally for is the new audio rack and a matching floating shelf to hold the album cover of what's playing. I didn't want the commercially made ones with the corny "Now Spinning" crap...it's pretty darn obvious what's going on. My son and his woodworking skills are incredible. He has built me two record racks, the 3 shelves for my new audio rack (made with parts I made, and some from my now-extant Salamander Designs Archetype 4.0 rack.)

Added a Musical Surroundings Phenomena II+ phono amp, selling off my Schiit Mani phono amp. Got a bargain on my dealers demo unit for $550! Many settings to explore.

It's here! Up there next to Scarlett.

Came last night. Just put it up. Nice! Fits perfectly. Still left fan to keep the AVR cool with air circulation out. Nat on TT.

The living room will be done tomorrow.

 

[KenM10759]

Nice, though I gotta say...I really loathe seeing the stickers still on an AVR.
