While competitor opt for a modern look sapprochant Apple model specifications, appearance General Omron BF 511 is not especially attractive with its retro feel and dull color turquoise. It weighs person looks like two drops of water to a device for years 60/70 Retro is back in fashion and some household will love.
The unit comes with a thick multilingual demploi full mode that it is imperative to read carefully to understand and appreciate all its features. It requires 4 AA batteries (d1 year autonomy by practicing four measurement taken daily).
He gives as measures:
- Weight (kg or lbs): Note that the scale will "only" up to 150 kg
- Body mass index
- Body fat in%
- Visceral fat (the one around the internal organs)
- The% of skeletal muscle (attached to the bones to move his body - increases with the sport)
- The minimum required caloric intake (resting metabolism)
4 It stores user profiles (that is to say that it manages 4 people max). A "guest" mode allows you to enjoy all functions for other individuals, we must seize every time the basic required information (height, weight, age) manually.
*** TAKE ACTION ****
To weigh, must ask the BF 5100 on a hard, stable surface. Avoid carpets and rugs because they cause distorted measurements (this is also the case for other scales and inpédancemètres).
We climb on the unit barefooted well wedged on benchmarks, we follow the instructions indicated in the manual (I repeat, it is very important to read it in full) and then tightening the handles of the unit and the succession daffichage face us by bending the arms.
It is also only about her weight on ascending the BF511 as a classic balance.
At the end of each measurement, we consult all the data (weight, BMI, body fat, muscle rate, calorie requirement and visceral fat) by navigating with the display unit as a remote control. Returned data is stable and consistent (100 g precision and derreur margin of only 1%), less subject to variations from some inpédancemètres competition.
In the end I recommend the product for its very loyal and stable measurements. I regret that we can not remember the last measure, and not 30 days for example.
Note that it is not a connected scale: you can not recover the data weighed by wifi or Bluetooth or store, or analyze on the manufacturer's website.
