blood pressure sensor

Use google.

The amusing thing is that even components intended for medical applications will carry a warning about not using them for medical applications.

If you're so worried about blood pressure, maybe that's something you really should buy off the shelf, since it's an area you don't want errors or problems to come in.

Why ? You can buy a Sphygmometer from your local Pharmacy for $20.

When was the last time you priced ??

$19.99 for an electronic Blood pressure Monitor:

About 8 weeks ago. £10 UK from Asda ($15 US). Last time I was in the USA (2 years) they were $20.

Harbor Freight is NOT a pharmacy. Thats cheap, of course ON SALE. Typical price is not usually less than $30 and more like $40, and thats a cheap unit.

I paid $40 for my wrist monitor, and its basically crap. It does not work on me. Readings are all over the place.

Did you ever think that maybe your blood pressure is all over the place?

So, a pharmacy can sell motor oil and cheap tools, but no one else is allowed to sell a Blood Pressure Monitor?

I see that price in their store most of the time. I don't see it listed in any of their current sales flyers. I see similar prices in the weekly sales flyers for national drug store chains as well. I no longer take the paper, so I don't have any current flyers available.

Maybe it's not the monitor? A lot o people don't know the proper way to use them.

I was only reffering to the pharmacy statement.

Last time I was pricing them at K-Mart, nothing much under $50. I take mine with the standard old type, and its a known fact, some people just can't use the wrist monitor. I have tried ever which way to make it work for me. No way. It will come up with the right numbers every 10th try.
