RunScribe Plus is a version of the [[RunScribe]] [[Running Sensors| Running Sensor]] that promises real time data. Unfortunately, RunScribe Plus was released well before development was completeI tested this extensively, and I'd still consider it pre-production at best. You can follow the daily bug update at [http://community.runscribe.com/t/runscribe-plus-current-daily-status-bug-list/722/3]. I've stopped doing any serious testing until things settle down. My questions and concerns right now are:* Will RunScribe Plus provide effective Ant+ communications to Garmin watches while preserving useful battery life? * Will even linking the data be responsive enough to be useful? The into my [[TgForceActiveLook Smart Glasses]] sensor is the epitome of real time feedback, giving you information each stride. but I'm concerned that RunScribe Plus will need too much smoothing to give useful feedback. * What will never found the accuracy be like as a [[Footpod]]? The [[Stryd]] footpod has always been amazingly accurate, while RunScribe Plus seems data to be struggling with this seemingly basic feature. * Will the [[Running Power Meters| Power Estimate]] be viable? Without the stunning pace accuracy that we see in [[Stryd]], the RunScribe Plus can't give a useful power estimate. And it's not clear that RunScribe Plus has an accurate barometer to estimate elevation (indications are it doesn't), so this may be a fatal flawor actionable.
