I'm intrigued by the idea and will be following your blog in the hopes that some day I can measure my power output without dropping $1k US.... Found your site via wikipedia.

I just like to say I wish both of you every success with it, good to see that you took up the challenge to the other companies out there, and YES you are an Irish product at that. I personally never used a power meter on any of my bikes, mainly because of the weight, price & difficulty in having them fitted etc,Maybe when your product becomes available I may consider getting one, if all the above is reasonable. Anyway all the best with your venture. Brendan Kennedy Hi Barry & Ian, Just came a cross your website and your product that you are designing.

So you can sample every 1,2,5,10,30 seconds if you so wish. I would think ever 10 seconds is quite a long time between each sample and faster sampling for shorter events would be better.

I'm thinking as fast a 10 samples per second, if not faster. This is particularly true for riders who do standing start or power events such as kilo, pursuit, and sprinting.
