    Just purchased a rower to workout during the pandemic. Thank you this was very helpful!

    How often does this need to be charged and how easy is it to charge it? Does it have to be removed from the S4 every time it needs to be charged? The whole setup seems a bit cumbersome for $1000 + rower. Wouldn't it be cool if the rower had a built in generator that charged the unit as you row.

      Depends on usage, you can just pull it off the unit and attach a usb cable. True that, i guess they will be bringing out upgrades in that direction eventually.

    I looked into the vommodule but at waterrowers site you need the v2 S4 monitor which is the same S4 but the back is a USB instead of a pin connection. U mentioned in a previous comment that this is by Bluetooth so I question why waterrower themselves are saying I need to upgrade to v2

    • @JohannesTraining
      @JohannesTraining  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The thing is the ComModule has the port that needs to be connected / plugged in to the back of the monitor, so you would need to upgrade to have the right connection at the back.

    What is the best software (for pc or phone) to use with this, both paid and unpaid? More interested in getting workouts set for me and making them interesting--more like Hydrow rower--than in tracking a lot of data. Especially interested in things that don't require a big monthly subscription. Thanks.

    • @JohannesTraining
      @JohannesTraining  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Id probably suggest Kinomaps, even though it has a monthly suscription, you can go for the lifetime option which is quite fair. You get lots of rowing videos to make your training more interesting.

    Does this show you the same information as the screen? I don’t understand the benefit? Please can you explain what’s different from the actual screen to the Bluetooth set up

    • @JohannesTraining

      basically you can see it larger on your Tablet and you can store workouts and have them with you anywhere as a training log.

    Would you recommend the Smart Row over this?

    • @JohannesTraining
      @JohannesTraining  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Morgan
      Depends what goals you are chasing. If you just need a way to transfer the data to your smartphone / tablet and have app connectivity via Bluetooth the commodule is enough. Advantages of the smart row system is that it has an integrated power meter so it can very accurately track the dynamics of your stroke and give you replicable information.
      If you want to go down that route then the performance model wr is a good option as it has the smart row and tablet holders integrated as well as generally being a bit more sturdy.
      Greetings
      Johannes

      Hi
      Nope this is only waterrower compatible.
      The connection is via Bluetooth to your tablet or smartphone, no physical connection required.

      Hi Mario
      Yes you need to go to the setting in smart row and check the box allow accèss to strava. That way it has permission to use the data and the sessions will be synced.
      Good luck
