Title: Pulse Oximeter
Post by: tp4tissue on Sat, 28 November 2020, 13:35:31

Got dis' n00 one off amazon.

Pretty kewl,  only bought it cuz it said OLED.   Indeed it has an oled display, buh function's pretty limited only oximeter and heart rate.

$23, kind of a ripoff.  buh dis' virus getn' super scarez out there.

Burn in risk seems minimal as it only takes a few seconds to measure.

Confirmed it works,  held my breath until almost blacked out, went down to 91% blood oxygen saturation.

I bought one of those back in the spring. Probably a waste of money, if I start feeling bad I will go to the doctor for a professional diagnosis.
