Lunix LX7 FSA Hand and Wrist Massager, Heated, Touchscreen | Temporary relief of minor muscle aches and hand fatigue from typing, gripping, gardening, or hands-on work

I rarely write reviews, but felt the need to do so with this item. The unit is amazing & easy to use, but the battery life is awful!! I get about 4, 15 minute sessions, medium pressure, no heat, before the battery is drained. Battery also goes dead when not in use for a week more. None of this would be an issue if it didn't take a minimum of 12 hours to charge. I am not exaggerating. I have tried various other charge cables & outlets...nothing changes. Very frustrating!!UPDATE: Immediatley after the above review was posted, the company contacted me and have been working overtime to make things right. Evidently, the battery in my unit is faulty. They are sending me a new unit. Like I said above, the massager feels amazing & is easy to use. I've also noticed some improvement from the pain/numbness in my hands with regular use. It's very rare nowadays to get good product support & customer service. You certainly can't go wrong with this product because if there is an issue, Lunix USA will bend over backwards to make things right. Thank you Lunix!!!!

First, a bit on the unit since there seems to be some confusion on whether this “massages” or not. The short answer is, no. But, I feel what it does is better, at least for me. I’ve suffered from tendonitis in both wrists/forearms for 7 years now and I’m always on the lookout for things that may help. I tend to find relief when I compress areas on my palm, wrist, and forearm via tightening a band or simply by grabbing and squeezing. If you find relief by squeezing a part of your hand then you’ll love this unit! It reminds me of those blood pressure tests for your arm, except this is for your hand and has the potential to squeeze much harder. There are hundreds of little pegs that press into your skin during the squeezing and you don’t really notice these until you take your hand out and see all the little circles imprinted into your hand, which disappear after about half an hour.So onto the unit discrepancies. Having both the white and black units, I’d personally recommend the white. Since the material is a slightly grippy matte finish, it tends to pick up oils, fingerprints, and dirt like nobody’s business. The black’s exterior dirtied up very quickly and is hard to clean, but the white stayed looking much nicer as hand oils and smudges showed up WAY less. I also think the white looks better in person.Regarding the main differences between the LX3 and LX7, there are a couple. First, the LX3 has 6 programs and the LX7 only has 3. Technically the manual and product description says 4, but the 4th program is strange in that it does nothing but apply heat. The little hand icon changes from a picture of a full hand on program 1, to just the fingers on program 2, to just the wrist on program 3, and then the full hand but it turns red on program 4. I let the timer run for 5 minutes just to see and there was no movement other than heat. Since you can decide to control heat anyway, I feel like the 4th program is a wasted opportunity and is somewhat false advertising. Of the 3 that work, I still feel like the programs are far superior on the LX3 and there are more variety and intensities. Speaking of…There are 6 levels of intensity on both units, but these are not created equal! The LX3 is SIGNIFICANTLY more intense in its pressure! So much so, that intensity 6 on the LX7 is about equivalent to intensity 2 on the LX3. I can do 15 minutes on the LX7 at level 6 and I'll have very shallow indents in my hand, or I’ll do 5 minutes at level 3 on the LX3 and have MUCH more defined impressions and in places that didn't even appear on the LX7. Putting it simply, the LX7 is weak-sauce in comparison. I made sure both units were fully charged.For me, both of those are deal breakers for the LX7: half the programs and less than half the intensity capability. Other things remain similar between the units. Same size, same fit for your hand, and almost the same “beep” noise when you hit the controls. I will admit, the LX7 sounds more like a microwave, but you don’t have to hit as many buttons as on the LX3 since it remembers your last used intensity. The LX3 always defaults to program 1 and intensity 3, so you gotta “beep” through all the numbers on both the program and intensity. The heat feels the same on both and I’m not really a fan. My hand already tends to get a bit sweaty on longer sessions so I don’t need to accelerate that process and make it worse. The vibration for me was the most useless of the features. The pulse vibration feels like a broken budget phone, extremely weak. The constant vibration adds to the unit noise and is also pretty weak, but also shortens the battery by a whopping hour if used constantly. I don’t mind that these 2 features are kinda useless and I don’t plan on ever using either.The one thing I like better on the LX7 is the timer. That can come in handy when I don’t want to go the full 15 minutes on one hand, but I’d like to keep the time the same on both left and right hands. Usually I can just watch the clock and use my phone on the LX3, but the timer is kinda nice. Although, if you switch programs when it's already counting down, the timer wont reset -- you’ll have to power off the unit and power it back on to do that. Oh, and one last thing, there definitely IS a protective film on the screen that looks scratched when I got it, but it CAN be removed!Wrapping up, save your money and get the LX3. It's a superior unit with more features, more variety, and more levels of intensity. They both tend to go on sale often and are offered at lower prices on the manufacturers website, so keep that in mind. My highest recommendation goes to the LX3, especially if you opt for white. Quite frankly, I'd still pay more for the LX3 than the LX7, and would skip the LX7 entirely if I couldn’t keep the LX3. Enjoy!

My left hand won't close. The fingers curl enough to type and no further. Doctors don't have a reason yet, but my rheumatologist suggested getting a massager. I settled on this one after reading various reviews, though the runner up is much less expensive.Pro:Good strong massage. I started on the lowest level, which was soothing, and each daily session notched it up. I stopped at level 3, not even halfway up in strength, as that's plenty of pressure. The heat is not as hot as I can handle (I effectively shower in lava, per my husband), but does a nice job of soothing and relaxing. After a few days of use, my hand seems less stiff and has improved range of motion as best I can tell without measuring, though it's still nowhere near touching fingertips to palm. I have only tried the full hand massage as I like getting my wrist massaged as part of the session.It's very lightweight, easy to haul back and forth from desk to charger, but has a firm grip on my desktop and will not slide during use (at least for now -- rubbery feet can lose grip over time). The controls are easy to understand after a short viewing of the online manual (the manual that comes with it just gives a URL to the current manual, along with a Quick Start Guide). The timer is easy to read at a glance, so I can prop my tablet in front of me to read a book while my hand is massaged and quickly note how much time is left in the session.Neutral: It does leave deep "dots" in my skin as seen in many review photos. They're gone within minutes, and don't itch.The charging port is down under the curve on one side, making it awkward to insert and remove the cable. I think I'm pulling on the cord more than on the plug. The manual says to keep it on a firm flat surface. The only one of those I have at resting arm height is my computer desk, but I have not got a place to plug the massager in there, so I have to carry it back and forth each night and morning.As to fit, I have small slender hands. 6.5" from base of palm to tip of middle finger. The lump to put my palm on inside the massager is a tiny bit too close to the far end, so my fingertips stick out into the slot at that end instead of being held by the fabric area or the bump fits a bit too far forward under my hand. Once the massager starts up, I can't shift my hand around to get off a spiky bump pushing into the side of my thumb, so I have to be very careful on placement before hitting start.Con: The battery life *sucks*. It takes 7 hours to charge (the manual says this and it did take at least 7 hours for the initial charge). One 15 minute session with heat drains over a third of the battery. The manual repeatedly stresses to use only the correct charger (5V 2A, not that I have any idea how to find out if my other chargers and cables match that), and never to leave it unattended while charging. I may be at home a lot but I'm not babysitting this thing for hours. The manual also says to always use common sense, which to me means just put it on a solid surface with lots of circulation and spot check it when I happen to be near the bathroom where I have a plug for charging this thing.Because of the battery life, I have to carry the massager from office to main bathroom each night, plug it in during my shower the next day, and once it's charged, carry it back to the desk. I can deal with this for my hand health but long term it's going to be tedious.

Nice unit, easy to use, the results are very good. However, this thing has a mind of its own. It turns on and off all by itself throughout the day. We tried everything. Having read that the on off switch was very sensitivity we tried to be as quick as possible. Always with the same result, it turns on and off by itself multiple times throughout the day. We tried to call the company but could not get through to them. Ended up sending them an email. They did respond within a few hours, but, their response was not helpful : Please note that this situation might happen when the user presses the off button and the finger is lifted slowly but still within the sensitivity of the device recognition range, therefore at this time the finger is recognized by the device to press the button on-again so that the device boots again. We are returning this, it’s really too bad as everything else was very good.

Best thing I bought. Really helps my hands. Soothing comfort

Pros: Simple to use. Can change settings while using. Light-weight. Can walk over for a coffee and not know you are wearing it. The arm size is generous. From my large forearms to my Lady Loves smaller forearms both have equal results, satisfaction. We had enough charge before a recharge. Our best was 4 times at 30 minutes (four hours) both arms utilizing all the features including heat.Over two days. Battery staying power for our new machine, so far, is good. We go about 3 1/2 hours plus before we charge. The reason for five stars for value I checked out at lest 30 other machines and one was like an institutional one about $2000.00. Range as low as $60.00. This had features I liked air pressure not mechanical. Cons. When the battery is flashing almost dead and you need to charge, for us, through the usb cord which is provided (no plug) it takes a good 12 hours through the usb plug in our outlet to fully charge. So far so good.

Does not hold battery charge long enough for at least "two sessions"... its purpose is very well done.

I was worried this product wasn’t going to be able to apply enough pressure on my hands. I was extremely happy with the results after the first try. It applies more than enough pressure for me on setting 6. It also has vibrate and heat which I have not used yet. With that said so far the battery life has been awesome. I love this product. If I could change just one thing I would make the product wider so I could open my thumb up and allow more pressure between my thumb and pointer finger. I also really love that this product has a focus point for the wrist. It gives your wrist a very nice and pleasurable squeeze. I bought the upgraded white and I find it extremely easy and pleasurable to use.

Muy bueno para el masaje de manos , ayuda en las molestias y dolores causados por daños en huesos y articulaciones. Excelente producto.
