Question:

I had a question on what you think is better? A wireless or wired power system. I've heard the wireless is a nice feature and is easy to get on and start taking care of business. However, I also hear that it drops data at certain points. Is a wired power system generally more robust? Is a wireless system the way things go? I would love to hear your opinion.

Answer:

Thank you so much for the inquiry. This is true that wireless systems can drop data. They are getting better but it still happens. I still prefer the wireless setups because the wires are a pain, plus they are ugly. I can deal with a little dropout because the power meter is designed to record changes over time and the small amount of dropouts won't really matter if the sample size is big enough.
