Personally I start the tracking earlier before I sleep, then I tap it to ensure it doesn't get 6h+ slumbering just before sleep. So I haven't had to wake up middle of the night, but at times I do get worried I didn't tap enough. 1-2x I have had it not register my tap.

To people who think 80 is high, sure, it is. But you gotta consider the time and effort that went into creating this device, the labor, trial and errors that come with projects like these. Especially when you plan on selling a device to others. I personally don't plan on buying this because I enjoy the randomness of sleep styles, but this looks like a really cool thing for people who want to take this game to a new level. Well done.

I think 💵 80 is too much. Furthermore, I use a different method. I only want a slumbering or dozing sleep styles, since I have most of the useful snoozing sleep styles. So week 1 I go to cyan beach and force slumbering with regular snoozing part and week 2 I go to Lapis and do the dozing sleep style with regular snoozing parts. This way I always have enough dozing/slumbering to compensate for the snoozing Pokémon. After weeks and weeks I still don’t have a proper Dratini/Chicorita & (second) Spheal/Totodile. Have caught around 20 each, without success. I suppose the devs know my strategy and try to sabotage me (joking, haha).

For someone who is enjoying the game, wants to get a certain sleep type, and doesn’t want to do their own research on a diy device, I feel it’s a fair price. I kept trying to get a snover and stufful which required slumbering but out of 3 weeks, I only got it 2 times. I didn’t want to leave my device to get near 100% since I didn’t want to raise the average anymore. I’ll be needing it for Totodile. I made something that’ll help me lower my slumbering and raise both snoozing and dozing. I would’ve definitely jumped on this had it been about a week sooner. Great looking product though, I admire the craftsmanship.

It took a while to release because it took time for me to get the prototype, test them (max I can test is twice a day even with 3 accounts), and then feedback, then have another device sent for testing again. At least you could use it now for the next event. Although I do recommend trialing it on a non event week first. Make sure you understand all the settings. Maybe test on an alt account if it's during event. User errors can happen.

@@Bropenings had a lot of help from chatgpt for the code. The Pico just listens for rest commands and runs code to 'wiggle' the servo when it gets one. I've currently got a python companion app that sends the rest commands on a timer depending on the sleep style you specify in the app. Other cool thing I was able to do was solder some wires to the contacts on the main board of the go plus+ that can plug into the Pico so it can trigger a button press. This way if I'm out, I can start a sleep session remotely, or set a schedule so I get s rating for the week for that handy candy.

One thing I dislike is on the Product Info, it says “Product failures will be covered under warranty if the tamper seal remains intact…Refunds or replacements will be issued after the device is recieved by Weaver Custom Equipment and the tamper seal has been checked.” Tamper seals are not valid - in the States, it would be violating federal law to void the warranty just because a tamper seal is broken, and in the EU, damaged tamper seals cannot void the legal guarantee on a product.

This device isn't for you! You should track as normal if you get value from sleeping better because of pokemon sleep. Don't expect every video I make is advice for everyone. However, even those who sleep better because of playing the game normally would occasionally want specific sleep styles. I only use the device about 30% of the time for those days. Other days I just go with the rng flow.

Inside the device is a removable and easily replaceable micro-controller. If the developers change the way the app processes sleep data, I will be running tests to find their new parameters for each style, then re-writing the coding to counteract their new parameters. If this does ever happen I will be selling replacement micro-controllers with the redesigned coding to users as cheaply as I can. The situation you are describing would affect the entire community not just users of the Sleep Style Modifier. I would also be re-providing data on how to manually get the snoozing sleep style as before as I am here to help the community. I can't imagine Select Button changing their app's processing of sleep data for this situation after celebrating 20 million downloads. The number of users of the Sleep Style Modifier is microscopic compared to the 20 million player base. Its a nearly 1/800,000 ratio.

Don’t buy this. $80 is way to high when you consider all it takes is one quick update and bam it’s a useless box. I’ve been messing around with my own method of trying to manipulate it using a second older cell phone and a string of preset alarms 20-120min apart with some success. Set the second phone to vibrate only, preset your alarms to only trigger once. Then set alarms Dozing - every 15-20 min Snooz- still experimenting Slumber- every 90-120 min. It took a couple tries but now it seems to work best if there is something between the phones, like a thin towel or empty pillow case. (Substitute ++ where applicable)
