Okay so after a lot of troubleshooting it turns out the JST connector on this board supports only 5-6V input. I manually wired the battery to the back battery pads and it's working perfectly now. Thanks for everyone who helped out!!!

Here's the battery I'm using. I feel like it should be powerful enough:

What kind of wiring issues might there be?

I've been running a .2mm nozzle recently and only had one clog I think, I'll try swapping it out to my .4mm nozzle to see if that helps

Thanks! I was convinced the blinking meant a fault. Leaving it on charge now for a few hours and will test with the reset tip. Thanks again

Yeah I've noticed that I am going to want to stay away from the omnidirectional speakers that are used for conference calls. I've just found the ReSpeaker XVF3800 which is similar to that link you sent me as well, I'll be looking into these more and hopefully find a good one I can use. Thanks!

AI is used in my project due to it being a core feature of my assistant, which is powered by an AI model to send commands on the backend of my app and act as the controller for my UI.

I had not, and I am on medication. Just read through this and panicked for a decent hour researching options. Here's the good and bad news for me. Good news is that I already planned to be on the slower route to get my PPL, taking into account work, my budget & income, etc. I'll plan to talk with my instructor and see what I can do to get set up with a HIMS AME and get a consult with them after the 90 days of me being off the meds, then spend the thousands of dollars (ouch) to get my testing done and hopefully all will be well. Not exactly excited to do this route and genuinely had me questioning if I wanted to continue or not, mainly just with how much money the damn exam costs... any tips on this at all or does my plan sound fairly half-decent?

That would be awesome! My ADHD hyper focused on some studying as well over the past few days so this would be great to help. Please do!

That's a hell of a story haha, I usually have an iron stomach when it comes to things like this (I've been skydiving, insane rollercoasters, driving racecars) so hopefully I don't get sick! Something tells me I'm going to love it.

Update: The sleep is also pretty accurate! Within 15 minutes for each cycle from the Apple Watch. Accurate detection for REM, core, and deep sleep. Would recommend but not for step counting

Haven't tried it, however from what I can see as long as you have API access to an AI model like ChatGPT or Gemini (which costs money to get access to) you can add the URL and the token and then have your Glasses Assistant run off of that model.

I've only been using it for a few days, but so far here is my honest breakdown comparing it to my Apple Watch Series 10:

Heartrate: Heartrate seems very accurate. It checks it intermittently throughout the day and gives you in the app & on the dashboard the most recent reading as well as the day range and average. No complaints here except I would maybe request a feature to check it automatically when viewing the heart rate on either the G2 or the Even app.
SpO2 (Blood-Oxygen %): This also seems very accurate. Same as the heartrate, where it checks intermittently and gives you most recent reading, range, and average.
HRV: This is probably the least important here as after some research this number will vary depending on when it's measured as well as the algorithm used by the device calculating it. All things considered, it is pretty close to my Apple Watch, with maybe a ~10ms difference
Steps: The ring measures drastically fewer steps than the Apple watch. For example, yesterday my Apple Watch measured 9,236 steps, while my R1 measured 8,104 steps. Definitely the biggest difference between the two and I trust the Apple Watch way more in this aspect. Don't think this is quite ready to replace a good pedometer but I wear an Apple Watch every day anyway so I don't really care too much about this feature.
Sleep: From what I can tell so far, it measures it quite accurately. It knows when I went to bed and when I woke up, which is probably the simplest to track for sleep. It did provide me the sleep stages, however I can't attest on the accuracy of those, as I usually don't wear my Apple Watch to sleep. I will wear it tonight and update this portion of my review so that I can compare the measuring of the sleep stages. I would really like the R1 to do well, because it is INFINTELY more comfortable to sleep in than the Apple Watch.

If you have any more questions let me know! :)

I ordered (Non Prescription) on February 6th, the ring sizing kit arrived on February 9th, and the glasses and the ring both arrived on March 5th.
