Problems with Pedometer Resetting!!!

I know a few of you have mentioned to me that your pedometers have reset themselves. I am betting the reset buttons on your pedometers are sticking out above the surface of your pedometers rather than being recessed. I have had pedometers in the past with the same problem. Here is a solution. In the past when I had a pedometer that was prone to reset itself, I took a plastic coffee stirrer, or basically a small plastic straw. I cut it down to size to fit around the reset button. It must fit around the entire reset button and be thin enough to pass between the reset button and other buttons. Then after you have your piece of plastic wrapped around the button you put a piece of scotch tape over it. That way the only way your pedometer is being reset is if you press the button with a pen. The piece of plastic acts like a guard. It may look ghetto, but it works. It is very frustrating to have a pedometer reset itself. This is a pretty simple solution compared to buying one that has a recessed reset button.
