2 questions....can I set this for an "A" weight in order to measure traffic noise, and, is this a data logger I can use with computer usb?

Yes you can set the Meter to measure A and C weightings. However, this meter does not have any USB ports on it to log the information gathered.

The only data this meter records is the maximum and minimum values since the last time it was turned on. Consequently, there is no usb port. You read the measured levels from the led display on the face.

If you have the GPS module plugged in, it records speed. can be incriminating, so i opt'd to not get the GPS module as i have in-dash gps with all that stuff

I turned off gravity sensor and movement sensor as well. After that it records all the time no matter my truck is running or parked on truck stop. And yes it works well with my Volvo truck for the fraction of price they charge on truck stops.

The wire is pretty long...you could put the sensor on the rear wheel if you wanted to.....yes, it'll measure MPH or KM. A very cool feature of this unit is the SCAN mode; the unit will cycle 4 functions, ride time, distance, max speed & average speed, while also display current speed. It also has a "+" & "-" indicator to show above or below current average speed. It's a very sweet unit. The original battery won't last long, so get a nice 3 pack of Energizer 357 batteries.

Yes, make sure you have USB adapter or built-in USB slot. It's lightweight too. Fits in a medium backpack and you won't notice the weight.

Andrea, although i myself have not used this for that purpose, because of its basic design (noise monitoring) I cannot imagine it NOT being able to be used for that purpose. And, as along as we're on that direction of conversation, might i add here that if the purpose is to check on the sleeping habits (with particular focus on snoring) of an individual that you consider having a sleep study performed (yeah, I know... you've probably already guessed it, but seeing a doctor for problems such as sleep apnea CAN be a prudent act on your part).Hope this helps.

A small device (shaped like a thumb drive) is included with the scale. When it is plugged into the USB port, it enables your computer to communicate with the scale. It was included with my scale I did not have to purchase it separately.

Well, which is it? This question is critical. Can someone from WD weigh in? It's almost inconceivable you can't direct attach this to a computer via USB.

No, this scale doesn't have a USB port. There is no way to connect it to a computer.

I don't think it captures peak weight, I use it for real-time readings. As far as calibrating, you leave it idle, and it "zeros out", then you put it in use.

It can be a good tool to help monitor teen driving but sometimes it is just not all that accurate and can be easily disconnected. The answer to your question is maybe it would be helpful

Hello, I am not thrilled with this scale. It does measure quick. It send the values to the PC via a USB cable, the software you are using has to be able to read the scale. My problem is that the scale seems to "drift" just from sitting and becomes inaccurate. Dymo has sent me 2 replacements already and they all do the same thing.

This device works out of the box. The numbers bounce around quite a bit (I use it to monitor sound in automobiles, so the environment changes with changes in pavement, etc.) I can say that, in my car, the mid-60s are typical of fairly quiet pavement and the mid-70s of noisier pavement, but I can't get really specific readings.But this is an inexpensive instrument that works for my purposes. If you need a really precise instrument, you might need to go elsewhere--and spend more money

Not sure what you mean. I bought this thing to weigh down a mic stand. I'm guessing if they won't let you buy it, they don't have it. Probably better off asking the merchant.

Hi, this is a really cheap sound meter, it won't help you for an official meausre, also There 's no way to store data from this device.

This is strictly a receiver, it will not record or show data. It is meant to be used as a tool for a program that needs accurate GPS info

Not true on my unit. As soon as I plug in the USB power supply, it stops recording. I've contacted Garmin for clarification but no response yet.
