I have been riding with the Power Pod most of the season. Seems to work pretty well. (Actually it measures my power about 200 watts less then I'm sure I am putting out. ;-) )

I haven't used any other power meter to compare it to, and just picked this up to be able to converse with my son who is a serious duathlete. He said there are so many variables that you can't really compare one person's power with another, thank goodness. But the Power Pod does give meaningful readings for me to compare efforts on my rides.

For the price and with Rainmaker's review, I went for it and am pleased I did.
