Great example, you forgot to mention the "accuracy only valid under specific operating conditions" warning of any voltmeter manufacturer or calibration lab. I'll add my own then: "accuracy only valid when worn correctly".
The error values did account for the Aquapac has it jumped to my eye in seconds that the accuracy of both logs was terrible from start to finish. If this device had shown such accuracy here during tests, it would have become a paperweight.
The rest is wrong, made up, boring, disappointing. Why do you even write such stuff.
So before the motion I believe all approved devices (except the watch that falls apart) were not water resistant and needed to be housed in something to be used (most commonly and aquapac)?? Are you suggesting that these approved devices were also being used incorrectly and would have poor results like reported here?
Did you consider that the motion devices were interfering with each other? I'm currently working on a cellular design and we are correcting issues where the Antenna picks up noise from other parts of the circuit. Probably less chance of an issue with a battery powered device that runs off cell voltage and has no buck/boost regs which can commonly cause this issue.
I'm dissappointed you find reading it boring. I find it quite enjoyable writing it.
Just got an email from Garmin with specials for any interested:
FR 45 - $229 - Not sure of capability in regards to data fields:
buy.garmin.com/en-AU/AU/p/641121/pn/010-02156-05?utm_source=APAC&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=en-AU%20Delivery,%20March%20on%20to%20More%20Savings%21
VA3 - $249 - I believe has data field support. Note my previous comments on touch screen in water:

Does the 45 play nicely with the data fields? If it does it seems like a great option. Buttons rather than touch screen is better for windsurfing and it is cheap!! The VA3 might be better as a daily wear watch with capability to windsurf (it has good battery life and good daily activity monitor and smart watch features).
