does it work on ellipticals and treadmills?

In my experience it did not work well on an elliptical. Did not try it on a treadmill. In the interest of full disclosure, I'm the guy (Missilemonger) who generally likes Omron pedometers but gave this one a one-star review.

I have not used this pedometer on a treadmill, but I do not see why the pedometer would not work on a treadmill. The pedometer does count steps while walking in place, as I have used it that way on occasion.

My husband and I both use ours successfully on the treadmill and elliptical with no problem.

I've had inconsistent results on an elliptical. It doesn't work in a pocket, but it works sometimes when clipped at the waist. It matter a lot exactly where it is clipped. An inch or two one way or another seems to matter, and I've gotten better at positioning over time. But I need to check constantly. No problem on a treadmill, where putting it in a pocket works fine for me.

It DOES work on treadmills. The elliptical I can't say for sure as there are so many styles/types. It doesn't work on the elliptical I use so I just track my time (rather than steps) when I am on it.

Yes, it will work on both. Manufacturer info states that, and Im doing that as I write. Excellent unit !!

It should work on any treadmill. It "works" on my Sole. By works I mean, it lubes the deck. I still have to loosen the belt and there's no way to know how much lube you've applied to an area.

it will register if you are on a treadmill the elliptical I am not sure about. as long as your arms are moving while you are walking it will register. I have to wear it on my other hand while I am at work so that it does not register steps while I am turning the wheel.

It may or may not. But I found a better product at Dicks sporting goods. You can go to their website and search treadmill lube. If you have a Dicks in your area go in the store and order it a receive free shipping. The item you are looking for is called Spintech treadmill lube. It comes in two forms. A black can and a yellow can. I can't remember which one is better for Ellipticals you'll have to read up on each one. The reason that I do not recommend the item your asking about is it doesn't spray upside down(very annoying when trying to get into tight spots) again I would not recommend the product you are inquiring about simply because Spintech is a way better product. It comes in a aerosol spray with a straw for pin point accuracy when using it. Hope this helps. Update: Just thought of something...i researched it and found that Amazon carries Spintech products. It's worth looking into and may be cheaper. I think they only have the yellow can which is for "dry" applications, and should be a good product for Ellipticals, but I would still look into it before purchasing.Also, I think you get more product for less money with Spintech.

Yes it does. Just plug in the port from your earphones into the treadmill from your device. The treadmill rocks.

It should work on any GPS. It's made of a soft, cloth material that will bend around the corners of the machine. It attaches to the machine using Velcro.

Hi Iggy, I haven't had the chance to use the Withings Pulse in a elliptical machine, however, I used it in a gym bike. In the bike the distance measured by the bike and the Pulse don't match, but if you see it as an Activity measure, it should be ok. For me, I don't see it as an accurate device for measuring distance or steps, but as a reference, a little like nike fuel band, that measure fuel points. Hope that helps

Mark, I'm not an electrician, but as long as your adapters fit each side of the Nu-cord and your treadmill doesn't draw more than 30 amps, it will work.

I use the same iFit module, rotating between my treadmill, elliptical, and recumbent bike. One iFit module can be used in multiple devices. All will be recorded on the same iFit account

Yes. You have a choice of methods. Fitbit may count "steps" while you are using the elliptical machine, but the other way would be to track "Activities" where "elliptical - high resistance," "moderate" and "low resistance" are choices. You would input the amount of time and resistance level, and Fitbit calculates calories burned. It would also negate any steps counted during the time period.

Yes, it will work on that style of treadmill, very similar to mine. However, it will cover up your panels, so you won't be able to read any settings, etc, your treadmill is displaying. And you'll have to slip your finger under the holder to reach any buttons or controls. That's the only drawback! But shape-wise, it should work fine.

First I assume you are talking about interference from a "treadmill". I doubt it, although I haven't tried it for that specific purpose. This device is aimed at interference which affects X-10 devices.

This is a clamp-on mechanism that only clamps to a horizontal surface. So it would work if the treadmill has a good surface that is about 2-1/2" wide. Due to the vibration of the treadmill, I would suggest putting a rubber pad under it, like maybe a piece of mouse pad, to dampen vibration and keep it from shaking loose.

Dont know but i would guess no. The heart monitor that came with it is useless so i bought my own finger o2 heart rate monitor. But i do not use it all the time. The elliptical is a great work out, i bought it for the work out not the heart monitor.

It should although I have no experience with elliptical trainers .it would record each movement as a step .The calories burned would not necessarily be accurate as you are not walking per se but one could use the companion app MyFitnessPal to estimate calories burnd baed on time on the trainer .

It works on my treadmill which has the same feature of plugging ipods, etc into it so you can listen while walking/running but my treadmill is not the same brand.
