LapCounter - Digital Counter for Tracking Swim Laps or Running Laps

This has worked great for me. I just passed the 3 year mark and I swim 3 times per week (most weeks of the year). Maybe I am lucky but I am going to buy a second one since I am sure eventually the battery will quit but I certainly have gotten my money's worth.

I needed something to kept track of laps other than my brain, LOL. This is perfect. It fits snug and doesn't slip off. it doesn't interrupt your stroke at all. I almost bought a watch but found this and its so much better, just click the button with your thumb at the end of each lap. Seems expensive for being a simple lap counter but its waterproof. I've only used it for a few weeks so I hope it lasts. If it doesn't I'd probably buy another because I love it that much.

Little bit tricky to fasten on my finger, but works well. What a relief. My mind can solve the "all the world problems",wonder off, and I still know what lap I am on.

My son needed a swim lap counter so I purchased this item. While the item works and does its job, I find it alarming that they charge so much for it. I think I paid $38. It comes in cheap paper packaging, and literally has a single button to manually push to count laps. They don’t even include an extra battery. Product should be priced at $9.99 - and even that is generous.

This is a great little lap counter, absolutely waterproof, the only drawback is that when the battery dies it has to be sent back to the manufacturer since once the back is unscrewed to replace the cell it is very hard to properly reseal it to keep the water out. I sent it back, and they promptly mailed me a replacement.

This has been a great help with knowing total laps when training for specific distances in triathalons.

i specifically ordered this instead of the one that also timed because I saw there were issues with some of those being on the wrong page when you get to the end of the length. I did not want to fiddle around and so I bought the bog simple version - one click, one lap, done!I need reading glasses and worried I wouldn't be able to read the display, but with my goggles on, (at least in sunlight) I have no problems reading the numbers even though I have trouble reading my digital wrist watch. We will see when I transition to the indoor pools, but the nice thing is that if you click, it registers the number, so as long as you remember to click, you'll get a proper count. It is so clear now, I think I will be fine.IF YOU DON'T LIKE RINGS OR ANYTHING ON YOUR FINGER:I didn't like the idea of having anything on my fingers to get in the way of my stroke, so I got some micro rubber bands and attached the band of the counter to the band of my wrist watch (at first I looped it thru the wrist band's retainer ring, so it looks as if my watch has a tiny watch sitting on the watch band) But the micro hair extension elastics work better, and since this watch is only used for swimming and exercise, I never take the counter off the band. (I will try to add a picture soon). Note, the counter's band is closed as if i were wearing it (coiled up), not flattened - flattening it might break it.A pity they don't sell these with a watch band or a way to attach properly to any watch band, I would definitely wear that. (Yes, I know there's a more expensive item in the form of a watch that does a bunch of other things, but i really wanted simple - and price was right). I find that I obsess less about forgetting what lap I am on and just concentrate on swimming. So I LOVE this thing.

Received quickly my other ones died over several years so I bought another two more the build of this is very nice also if the battery dies I took it to a battery shop there’s a rubber gasket that makes still waterproof the size is spot on I’ve learned not to put it on too tight my finger would get numb for the money and durability, usage over the years it’s well worth the money mine is black so it sticks out when I’m doing lap swim I figured if I’d got a different color it might blend in with the water I also use it walking laps at the gym that’s why I’ve got two of they I’d recommend this item
