I bought one of those electronic body fat testers, fifty dollars. The
readings I get are about the same as I got with calipers, with a lot less
hassle. I get 14% in the athlete position and 15% in the normal position.
BMI 22.1.

My experience has been the same, within 1% of calipers, which is why
I've been recommending these for years. I did an informal test once of
a few people at my gym and all got similarly close numbers to their
caliper readings.
