Just because a "gay strap with a metal washer" is your normal set of underwear does not justify you complaining with no logical or scientific evidence about a product not working. Please be helpful when posting information, we do not need to hear about your private wear.

"Bob the Builder" comments were as inane as they were gross. How about offering an honest and telligent review so those of us interested in the poduct can benefit from your experience. I guess you can't expect much from someone who names himseld after a children's artoon for pre-schoolers. I suggest that he return to his pre-school activities and write again when he grows up a bit.

The Bionic Band does work and works well. Simply look at the numerous competitors using the Bionic Band while competing in the Track and Field World Championships in Berlin last week. The distributors and company are so confident in the Bionic Band, they offer a 100% money back guarantee if you aren't satisfied. Finally, it must have worked well enough that after the demonstration of how it works ON YOUR BODY (most of the time live and in person) you purchased one.

Bob, you are an idiot. If you are honestly stupid enough to think that the second you put the band on, you will be able to walk a tight rope across the grand canyon, then you truly are the most gullible and pathetic person I have ever come in communication with. You should take that rock you are talking about and crack yourself in the forehead. Then I would recommend taking the rope, tying a noose around your ankle and hanging yourself by your foot from a tree. Then everyone with bionic band should get to throw darts at you. Pull your head out of your @$$ and do something constructive today for a change. Playing with your sisters hot beach barbie collection doesn't count.

"Gay/Strap" ???? what does the appearence of the product have to do with the fuction of it??? Isn't this a site to complain about whether things work or not? Oh thats right "shit doesn't work" well How doesn't it work? Does it not provide you with the balance, strength, and energy that you expected? Did it not help with your pain or sleep at night? I need a little more then "shit doesn't work" to go on here. Not to mention I am sure you were told that the product does infact have a 100% satisfaction guarentee on it. So if you are dissatisfied in any way. By all means return the "gay/strap" and get your money back.

I have been wearing the bionic band for a few months now, and have introduced it to friends and family. I have to say that it is effective, however I have serious doubts with respect to its effectiveness long term.

In only a few months, friends/relatives have reported back that if they have shared it with others and then they try to use it, it has lost its effectiveness. Also, from another relative I understand that even though she has never shared the bionic band, its effectiveness is not as strong as when she first received it.

Other than that so called hand/arm test, they do not seem to have a scientific test readily available, like testing the charge to determine if the charge is still at its similar potential.

Time will tell. However, I sense that this is something that might have to be re-charged on a regular basis.

It is a scam! They do the balance tests without the band first and then with the band. The second time you know what to expect and compensate for it. Plus, they push at a slightly different angle. Watch the videos. They push ever so slightly outward without the band and they only push straight down with it. Sometime they have you hold onto the band instead of wearing it. That forces you to make a fist which gives you more strength. Their multi-level marketing websites say it uses "Proton Alignment Resonance Technology" and makes the protons in your body spin in the same direction and stimulates the mitochondria in your cells. A fool and their money are soon parted.

Just because you do not understand why something works is not a reason to say it does not work, or "that a fool and there money are soon seperated." The band had worked very well for me. As for them pushing out, vers down, verious strenght tests were done on my upon request, not just that one, including seperation of fingers held together, and straight down in my hand by my side. Further I note that the pressure starts out down, and only moves outward when people are weak and start to tip already. Band worked for my back pain very well. Don't understand exactly how, but it works.

I had my doubts as a rational pragmatic adult, (an educated military officer type) but after being a test subject "guinea pig" at an outdoor show, I thought I'd buy it, (spent alot more on food/refreshments and other temporary un-fulfillments that day). I can say that I can "feel" a difference between when wearing and when not. The whole body "feeling" might just be a pshychologically conditioned/physiological expectation result, (e.g., if one is told that one is "cold" they will begin to perceive and then feel they are cold with enough conditioning in preparation to adapt to an expected environment). But, the nails on my fingers grow at a faster rate than normal and my skin/face complextion has been more vibrant than normal, (likened to colagen supplementing) after wearing after a few consecutive days of wear. My wife complained of headaches when she wore the strap on her wrist. I'm wondering if blood type may be a factor, as my wife and I do overall have the same relative diet, but different blood types, (I'm an A Positive; my wife is a type "B Positive"). While wearing during sleep, my sleep patterns have been mostly deep and sound, (possibly depending on mental workload = cognitive feedback the previous day's events). However, most notable, while wearing when I sleep, my dreams have been consistently more "life-like" with more prolonged rational episodes, vice normally short multiple incohensive vignetts. When morning comes, overall I feel well rested. Sex has gotten better. ;)

I'll bet a hundred dollars that if this guy lived in the day of Christopher Columbus he would believe that the world is flat and that Columbus must be gay for thinking that the world must round.

All I got to say, it does work! I've noticed within 5 minutes of wearing the band. I just got off riding a motorcycle for 2 hrs. and have chronic neck pain for over 10 yrs. that acts up every so often. I had the test and was amazed! Anyhow, I am believer and the price doesn't matter. Just hope it doesn't wear off after time. That is my only concern.-Rachel in Arkansas

BIONIC BAND SCAM AS BAD AS MADOFF PONZI SCAM

This would be the first time I had to sign up and warn people on product complaint boards as I really don't have much time but felt I had to warn people.

My wife and I went out for dinner last week and overheard a gentlemen talking about his bionic band he just got, I asked him about it and he did the same scammer throw off your balance and then press down in a different direction when you wear it and wow...it was magic...I had my wife try it and it had the same effect. So we went online to bionic band website and I purchased the lifetime $57 one and my wife got the $25 one. We put them on and after a few hours felt like idiots...there was no energy boost, they had a warning stating "Do Not Wear to Bed" as you will be up with all this energy, but funny thing was, I was tired and went to bed with it on and slept fine as I always do. We went to the mall to do some shopping and my wife left hers at home but I kept mine on, we saw someone doing a demo at a booth for bionic band and I had to go over to see this again. I had a long sleeve shirt on so you couldn't see that I was wearing my magic band and when he did the test on me, he through me off balance...now for the fun part, as people gazed in amazement I had to stop him when he offered to put a band on me and pulled my sleeve up showing the audience that I was wearing the most expensive magic band and he through me off balance...the look on the people's face was priceless as they walked and the salesman got screwed out of all the sales he was about to make. I just have to say, BUYER BEWARE: IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE...DON'T DO IT, OR YOU WILL MAGICALLY LOOSE YOUR MONEY AS WELL.

I am as skeptical as anyone but my son who is a soccer pro did the tests I was taken back but still unconvenced. When the cell phone came into the testing I got interested. When they were going to point the cell phone at him doing the arms out one leg balance routine I quickly interupted and said "if it really works and is not"mind over matter" then it should not matter if he is facing the phone or not? He then assumed the position with his back facing the phone. The phone was then covered with a band. He was rock solid ...until I removed the band without saying anything. He lost balance immediately and asked "what happened?". None of the other "tests" sold me because of the "scam" issue. The phone test was real because I did it, not any hawker. I have bought several through my business and plan to do a rather intensive trial to determine if it works in all cases and to what degree (if measurable) it can stimulate athletic performance. I am not ready to sell the product but I am much more curious now than before the phone test.

my husband and myself both purchased these bands. i was very skeptical and so was another couple with us who asked the salesman to let us do the tests on oursleves which he was very much happy to let us do. I did notice the first 3 nights I had to remove the band to get to sleep, I usually fall asleep as soon as I sit down after eating dinner i have yet to fall asleep watching TV like i use to. Now i can go to sleep and I noticed the first morning after sleeping with this band i woke up with no back pain. I wake up every morning with back pain, I usually sleep 6 hours a night so its not that i am lying in bed too long and i have a temperpedic mattress so its not my matress either, not sure whats causing my back to hurt every morning other than i am 37 and maybe its age i have yet to wake up with back pain. my husband has tennis elbow he cant sleep on his right shoulder because the pain, its a constant pain that is always there. the pain is gone He wakes up on his right side and without pain. You do what you want but if this thing last only a few months then that has been worth it and i still saved money on medicine. Its well worth it.

I went to the Florida State Fair yesterday and after walking for 5 hours at the fair my back and neck were aching. I have 2 bulging disks in my neck and a desocated disk in my lower back. After putting on a bionic band on my wrist and a bionic necklace, my back and neck pain went away instantly! I am truly amazed. I signed up as a distributor and got a total of 8 bands. I gave them to my wife to wear as she has fibromaylgia, an illness where her whole body can ache, which bothers her always when it rains. Well today(the day after buying) it rained and she was pain free the whole day! She slept with it and said she did better than usual with her sleep. There is something to the Bionic Band. If you have any kind of body pain, then you will notice the difference. I believe that the people who think it is B.S. are the ones who are not in any kind of pain and cannot feel the effects as readily as someone who has pain.

i bought the bionic band two weeks ago, and no one can get me to take it off. i had fibromyalgia (body pain and mood swings), chronic fatigue, arthritis, and what i call "crazy legs"...losing balance over the past few months. i no longer have pain, my legs are strong and solid, i have strength and energy all day long, and i sleep MUCH better. i have dreams now for the first time in my life that are realistic dreams as opposed to disturbing dreams. i will save a lot of money monthly on cutting back on medications and vitamins, now. this band is an A+ product for me!

I was at a Home & Garden show in January and we saw the Bionic Bands. We were impressed so my husband bought one to try it out. We also saw the competitor there selling a silicone band with Hologram technology. It was half the price and when we did the tests it worked better than the Bionis band. My husband was actually wearing the Bionic Band while they did the tests. We also found out that the Bionic Band always has to be in contact with the skin and that the frequencies in the metal chip wear out over time which we have now heard from others who have had a Bionic Band that the tests don't work the same way as when they bought it. The technology is real and have seen other information on this on the internet. I do have to say that the powerbands with the hologram is still working great and when we do the test with friends it STILL works unlike my husbands Bionic Band. If you want a product that really works and won't wear out go to www.azpowerbands.com . That is the website of the company we bought ours from...Couldn't be happier with it.

Nurse Lizzy hold the silicone band with Hologram technology in front of a computer screen for a minute then see if it still works.

freedawg,
I did put it up to a computer screen and a tv overnight since that is what I was told will make it stop working and it still works. We were at a gund show in Phoenix last weekend and talked to the Bioninc Bande rep and he told us it would kill it. Well it doesn't kill the band. One of the ladies at the booth said the holograms only last a few weeks but the guy who ran the booth said it only lasted a few months. Different stories from the same sales group...He also said that you have to buy the refills online since they don't last very long. Come to find out that the Bionic Band rep was a total LIAR. The stickers that they sell online are for people to put in shoes, wallets, or even behind thier watches so they can get the same results as wearing the bands. They also told my husband that the Bionic Band will work r3eally well if you put another one on, which meant another $55. That would be over $100, when the competition gives you multiple Holograms in each brecelet for $35.

Again, the holograms still work great and the Bionic Band makes us feel a litte ripped. I don't like salespeople that comletely mislead buyers and that is how we felt from the Bionic Band rep.

Again, if you are happy with your Bionic Band than great, but if you want a better performing and longer lasting band then go to www.azpowerbands.com
