    AAA battery only lasts two days
    I put a new battery in the equipment, and in just two days, it's low battery already. Also, I bought this for the lab experiment and discovered that if I want to save the raw data, I will have to buy a Matlab package which will cost another $500.Not to mention that I spend time reinstalling the connection app and testing on two windows.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works great on new devices, best option for app developers
    Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2020
    Works great for me!
    I'm engaged in development of app called "EEG Meditation", for iOS and Android. Chasing a bug, I've tested it with more than 8 mobile phones last few days. It worked everywhere perfectly with one exception:

    WiFi interference with Bluetooth on Xiaomi Redmi Note 8t - the connection was unstable until WiFi was disabled.

    As for Battery life:
    Works perfectly for me with Ni-MH accumulators for 950 fAh (ReCyco+ 1000 rechargeable by GP).
    The longest life was with disposable Lithium batteries (Energizer), though they're expensive.
    Simple alkaline batteries won't last too long.

    There're SDKs for all platforms, providing "Meditation", "Attention", "Eyeblink", bands and raw EEG data. There's even a protocol explanation, so you theoretically can build your own SDK. Their website and documentation may seem outdated, but everything is there, and everything is working. Huge advantage above Muse, which closed their SDK!
