I think the idea of a smart audible is cool, and I would have considered it a few years ago. But at this point, I feel like it has no business justifying a price of $400, or offering two different options in and cutting out major features from the cheaper one. I realize there is a difference between altimeter and audible, but for the same price, you can get a Dekunu One altimeter that will provide infinitely more features and just seems like a better option IMO. If this was prices at $200 for the full unit, I'd consider it.

Looks like a great product but the outrageous price is so high it's close to gouging. I almost feel insulted as if they think I'd pay that much. Hmmm, but then I do pay quite a bit for a sheet of fabric.

Best altimeter ever. I love mine! I wish I could make it go just a little louder and change default voices. They are also going to have the option to log jumps.

Demo'd one in Eloy a few months back and have logged 127 jumps on the one I ordered in April since then. It's easily one of the best gear purchases I've made in the last year. I guess if the $400 price tag is outrageous to you then that's your prerogative, but once you try it and experience constant and effortless altitude awareness, you'll see what the big deal is. The only thing I would suggest for improvement is to make the altitudes on ascent programmable too. I could use one at 2k and 8k ft but the unit only notifies at 1k and 1.5k with no option to modify ascending alarms on the app.

Yeaa I have it and love it! Awesome having the unit call out the altitude especially while I'm removing/stowing my slider, flying to/in my holding area or flying my landing pattern ^^ for me it's sexy info that is super useful feels like what my quatro first did for me when free flying. I def recommend trying it especially speaking from 5k feet ^^ awesomeness! Thanks guys!!

The idea of someone talking to you is nice, but in the end that's nothing more than a question of programming, is it? The hardware should be relatively similar to what the brilliant pebbles offer, only that you can get three to four of those for the price of one VOG and the pebbles app is free to use. Bottom line: interesting, but waaaaaay to much money for what it is.

Yes, it is worth the $400. They offer a "try it" money-back guarantee and it really is worth the premium. It's very well engineered with extremely long battery life - set and forget, regardless of if you're doing wingsuit or AFF instructor jumps or fun jumps. No need to turn on or off. Compare it to what you have. Yes, the Pebble is a good cheap audible. It's good for those where $400 is completely out of the question. However, if you have the budget, or even if you can stretch your budget, speaking voice audibles are on a whole other level. It seems like a gimmick, but it really isn't. You have to try it to understand! And VOG is completely distinct from the competition (there's nothing like it).

maybe because it IS kind of a ripoff. i own one and i like it, but nothing about this thing is worth 400 bucks. also its just outrageous to offer an audible altimeter which doesnt allow you to change the alarms, especially as this is just an arbitrary software restriction, both altis are identical hardware wise. would you buy a TV that doesnt let you decide which channel you wanna watch, just because the manufacturer tried to BS upsell you?

That’s a ridiculous price, where there are ones with better/more features, and the whole gimmick of this is that it has a voice count down. That’s not patient pending. All it will take is any of the other alti companies to update theirs and bam! Their one feature is no longer special
