There have never been any problems with my Tempo Trainer, and I do not expect any to arise. My suggestion is to send yours back and get a new one if it doesn't work. I have no problems doing my work.
Selected User Reviews For FINIS Tempo Trainer Pro Audible Metronome Pacing Device , Yellow/Blk, Small
It is an excellent training device for swimmers, the Tempo Trainer Pro, also known as the Wetronome. A swimmer will learn from every stroke when the two wetronomes are used, one for tempo and the other for pace. There are a variety of ways that the device can break. The swim team of mine has bought 33. Among the three, one leaked while the other However, Finis does accept returns but this is an irritating issue that has affected many customers for a long time.
Over the course of about 8 or 9 tempo trainers, I have gone through quite a few. Sometimes it only took a couple of weeks, but usually it took only a couple of months for all of them to break. If the screens stopped working or if it started leaking, it became a major problem. However, it was the only game in town at the time, so I bought it. Yet the latest failed product is enough to make me give up. There will be no.
I bought my third tempo trainer after my first two flooded after a year of light use, and this one - I cannot use. Thirdly, I would like to thank After a moderate use of six months, the application became silent. The unit is a problem for me because I live overseas, so returning it is not really an option since shipping costs are about half as much as buying The longer the battery lasts, the more I want to use it. I wish another company like Garmin would make a more durable and waterproof device, or that Finis would make something they can stand behind with.
been using this for well over a year, swimming in the lap pool on average four times per week. About a year ago I got the idea that if I lace a small tie with a bigger one, the tie would be more visible Make a loop by wrapping through the tie The fact that it will not only stay in place, but also be much more audible via bone is also very promising It is conducted. Whenever I wore it, I did not use the tie Eventually it would rip loose from the google strap as it fails to fit correctly, resulting in the beeps being hard to hear. This product is used exclusively with a pair of googles, so an accessory tagging it to it will be convenient The wrapping of the package did not pose any problems. This is what I use for 1/2 a day RPT interval shouldn't be longer than 7 seconds, so I set it to *7 seconds and it's perfect.
It was also a great experience working with Finis' customer service. Now that I have semi-finished mine The machine died after being in use for years. A little over a year ago, I purchased mine. It took me 6 months to swim 4 times in 6 months during the first use of the machine. It's no joke that I run 5 miles daily. In other words, when I say I have no idea how many miles have been logged on this thing, I It's a great unit and I am totally happy with it. The only use I made of it was for "Mode 3", which is the stroke-based one It is tempo-driven I use it for the timer. In most cases, I would like to challenge myself and increase the intensity of my workout. Neither the seal around the battery door nor any other part of the battery has been problematic. My laptop never leaked, chipped, cracked or anything of the sort. It has a long battery life, which is very cool. Over that period of 4 years, I remember changing the battery only once. As much as I like this gear, I am also very gentle with it. A thick heavy duty mesh bag that keeps it in when it is not in use. As a result, there is microfinance Throughout the years, the scratched surface has become more pronounced. The same level of damage you would see on a pair of hand paddles subjected to heavy use. As of right now, I do not know what caused my issue. In the end, mode 3 did cease to work for me. On one of those days, I tried to use it and it would not work. My computer turned on normally, but I switched the mode to the - Initially it looked like it was 3 and then it flattened out less than a second later There are lines. A patient on an ER TV show acts like this. An individual who does not fit the bill I'm tired of all this beeeeeeeeeep. It was at this point that the device went mostly unresponsive. The mode button did nothing, and the up and down buttons did nothing either. If pressed individually, they will The report says nothing was done. Even so, I could still turn the device off by holding how the two up/down buttons together together like I normally would do. Once I turned on the device again, I checked the mode. The first and the The 2 units were working the way they were supposed to, only the modes had been changed There is an odd issue with the third one. We found that the unit had been completely dried. The exterior of the unit did not show any condensation or any other contamination. Neither a loose nor a shaking object was present. I have never dropped it or suffered any hard shocks with it. Nothing like that has ever been done to it. Once I got home I tried it again, with the same result. I replaced the battery with a new one, with the same result. I contacted Finis support directly via their website. That was a simple A day later, they got back to me You did a great job, thanks. It did not matter what language was spoken. It was a friendly and professional experience. There were a few troubleshooting steps given to me, all of which I had already attempted. The device and I cycled through its modes in a video I sent them to demonstrate the problem. Obviously, the device was WAY past its warranty period, so that was all I was hoping for was information on perhaps how to reset the device. My thank you card stated that they would offer me a new device This was a very generous offer and I am waiting for my new unit to arrive.
I am very pleased with the customer service and I am very pleased with the device and its features. I disagree. It's no secret that I am an asshole. As an IT guy, I'm a system administrator. The device you are building is one of the simplest you could possibly However much I love this, guys, fifty bucks is a lot when it comes to this A $60 price tag is about 300% too high. An alternative mode of transportation could be provided by a competitor It has 3 features without any other functionality. If you put them into a watertight device and charged $15 for it, you would lose the market My experience is that every swimmer who practices a lot uses and recommends these products. The only thing each of them really cares about is I would never have received the $25 replacement unit if Finis had not offered it to me I am extremely grateful for your help If I had been able to do it for $15, I would have built my own version.
A single time. During a 15-minute swim, my Tempo trainer failed after only ONE use. The pros are as follows I find that it is very easy to set up and I like the concept- A swim cap perfectly fits under this sound amplification device, and mode 3 was perfect for beeping at 70 beeps/minute. Despite my disappointment, I was very satisfied. This is true. On the other hand, I tried to turn it on again the next day, but it promptly did not I switched it on one or two times, but then it gave a continuous beeping tone in Mode 3. He would not even attempt to change modes. There seemed to be no movement on any of the buttons. In order to turn off the drone, you would have to turn it off. This is what I tried several times - A replacement will be sent out for this one as well. I am very disappointed and very wary of the unit that I am going to get next, as a replacement.
It works fine, but it's junk with a short lifespan. To make matters worse, against my better judgement, I am annoyed with myself. There are four Tempo trainers out there, and I just purchased the fourth. After buying the second* one, it worked for about 4 months before it gave up the ghost. Despite the fact that there were still some characters on the display and that it would turn on and off, the problem could not be I made it last slightly longer before packing it up in the second one. It was the battery, which wasn't too dead at the time, but, despite following the replacement instructions to the letter, it never came back to life, and when I changed it there were some contacts already leaking, so it was evident that leak had already occurred. It's only worthwhile to buy one of these if there are no alternative options out there, and you have to be prepared that if it dies you won't get support from Finis, so you're gambling on it. In the case of the first one, I noticed no ill effects on 2 The last time I had it was 3 months ago. Naturally, that wasn't the vendor's fault, and there is no reason to expect it would have lasted a lot Since I have only bought 4 in the past, I want to prove they offer features and functions that I find worthwhile.
