Blood Pressure Machine

[Gonzo the Face]

I am in Chiang Mai.  I use a Omron Blood Pressure machine daily.    A problem has come up with the machine,  It appears to be a problem with where the plug is inserted not some internal problem.  Do we have any members using such a product here in CM and happen to know where locally it can be repaired?

Thanks

Blood pressure machines are only 300bht on Lazada.

Is it really worth trying to repair one?

There is an OMRON store, that sells only OMRON products in the 89 Plaza shopping center in Nong Hoi.     Not sure if they do repairs.    Maybe try GOOGLE for that location and see if you can get phone number.    Or, others stores in CM.

That's where I got mine as I was worried my intake of alcohol could be affecting me BP.

Tested after a few drinks, no problem.

Tested after the Mrs came home from work and it went through the roof! 

 

It's pretty obvious which will kill me first ????

Why buy one for the brand name, when they all are as good as each other.

My no-brand monitor has exactly the same features, cost under 300bht and has worked perfectly for 4 years.

Gives me the same readings as the hospital machine.

Thanks for that. I've just ordered one.

The OMRON shop and service centre in 89 Plaza has closed.

However, going along the road from there towards Chiang Mai there is a new OMRON Service Centre sign on the right hand side.

Make sure you buy a finger Pulse Ox meter to check your oxygen levels as well.  I ordered my BP machine through Shoppe as well as the Pulse Ox meter.

I have an Omron, model 7121.  It operates off electrical outlet or 4 Double A batteries.   It also has a warning if it detects irregular heat beats.  I know it was more pricy than some. I honestly don't remember what i paid.  HOWEVER, I highly recommend the battery powered units as they last a looong time  and it is much more convenient to use anywhere.  I have never used the wall plug.

They all have that, as they all use the same internal parts.

Only the badge and the plastic exterior is different.

Sorry, I have to disagree with you. I have not looked at all the monitors on the market as apparently you have, but i do know they are not all the same.  Looking only at Omron there are different features on different models.  Whether one needs them or not is up to the user.  Personally, anytime i am dealing with my health, I am more concerned with quality than cost. Anyway, my main point is whatever brand you choose, being battery operated is a nice convenience to have. Edit: The more I think about it, perhaps it was the wall plug capability that was optional and the battery is standard.  Anyway, I am pleased with mine and I have never used the cord, I wish the OP well.
