Does anyone have the "Basis Peak" smartwatch/monitor?

I just wondered if anyone out there owns a Basis Peak health/fitness monitor/smart watch? Can I pick your brains for a minute?


I was looking at getting a smartwatch to monitor things because I struggle with night sweats and they are a bit of an unknown when I speak to Doctors about them. I've had them since my late teens/early 20s and I'm in my mid 30s so I'm doubtful it's the menopause, As they've gone on so long, after the initial blood tests showing everything as normal the Doctors (I've seen many) don't really seem so bothered to find an answer so I'm trying to find a cause myself and that way maybe I can prevent them and get a decent nights sleep!


I was interested in the Basis Peak because it measures perspiration levels. No other smartwatch does this, no other sleep monitor does this. But the price is not cheap and so I want to make sure the results they give are pretty clear and helpful rather than a y/n as to it happening or not (this I don't need help to log).


If you own the Basis Peak, if possible can you just explain a little about how the results are taken? Would it pick up perspiration levels in sleep? Does it state the times and core body temperature? Does it vary in levels or just a y/n as to it happening at certain points (and so does it miss off some lower levels of perspiration that may still be a problem if you had been trying to sleep) and do you think it picks up any perspiration at all if it's only measuring things from your wrist and the perspiration occurs on your torso?


Thanks if you can help at all with this. I did try emailing the company who unsurpriszngly were unwaveringly positive about their product but what I was looking for were hands on experiences rather than someone who was reading from the instruction manual!
