Re: Thinkrider PP5 power meter I have 1 suspicious sprint undershoot (900 vs 950 and flat cadence reading from pp5), but everything else seems fine. Please check my files, maybe i missed something

Whole ride was with +3% offset for pp5 (after my first ride), but i think it should be +2% - 1 watt under direto on low watts and spot on on 300+ is better than exact low watts but +2-5 on high

Comparing with Elite Direto (very first one) and Magene PES505.
For past 7 years Direto was tested with FSA PowerBox (Power2Max NGEco) and Xcadey gen1 spider. In those tests Direto had identical readings with some constant offset - fsa no offset, magene offset +4%, xcadey gen1 -2% - so Direto my control device.
I have only spider PMs, so no triple recording and no outdoor comparison

Test protocol - copied from GPLama, with free ride first, sprints, some ERG work, more sprints and 2 stops in the middle for calibration. FIT files and screenshots attached

I really think they did it. Now we wait for Shane and others guys, especially outdoor rides, to be certain

Re: Thinkrider PP5 power meter More input attached (can be used with compare-the-watts.com). Was recording a MyWhoosh session (32min) with 3 devises in parallel, each recording another single power source - Zwift trainer, ThinkRider and Wahoo Speedplay. All calibrated before (as well the trainer after warmup). At ThinkRider I needed to change the sensitivity to 110% (max value, this is possible in the TR app) as I had a constant shift vs Trainer of 20W (did yesterday already a run).

Feel free to comment.
