LED indicators

The Sportiiiis consists of a multicolored LED boom that provides visual feedback about your performance. Using the Sportiiiis desktop or mobile client, you can set your target heart rate, pace, and cadence. Then once you've begun your workout, the Sportiiiis will light up green if you're in the target zone or red if you're above or below it.

Lightweight

The Sportiiiis weighs less than 0.35 ounce, so it shouldn't weigh down your sunglasses.
