26er Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Which heart rate monitor are you currently using and why?
FlyingScot Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Garmin fanboy here! First heart rate monitor I owned and it just makes sense to me. On a side note - I had no issues pairing my HRM to my IDT software.
SwissVan Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Polar V800 because i like the way it looks (square not round) and because i have always been a sucker for polar products... yes sometimes i wonder why. But despite all of polars BS the watch works, the Toyota of HR monitors
Eddy Gordo Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I have a suunto M5, but its not compatible with android. So I now am using "I got U" which is just the belt and reader and connects via bluetooth. Works very well
shaper Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Garmin... Just works and integrates with everything !
Rocket-Boy Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Tomtom multisport, cos I couldnt afford the Suunto or V800 It does work amazingly well though and is easier than anything else to link to a host of external sources for uploading.
CogitoErgoSum Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Polar RS800cx. Got as a gift. Like the look of the watch. But slight little niggle - the speed and cadence sensors are dead now. Does anyone know what could be wrong? How to fix (if it can be)?
mike88 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Do you guys use the monitors just to check your heart rate or use it for heart rate traning??

Long Wheel Base Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Garmin edge. Onto my 3rd one now and still love it. I'm still using the older "hard" strap which gives no issues. Iv heard some guys say the new soft strap can give issues.
Vlamrouge Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Edge 500 with a Polar softstrap. The Garmin strap started giving problems, replaced it with the Polar strap. No problems since.
TheJ Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Garmin 910xt. Bought all the bits at bargain prices. Got a few soft straps, 1 hard strap, foot pods etc. Brilliant piece of kit. On my wrist right now, sea swim finished. For each type of sport it can tell you like 30 different metrics. So even for cycling it rocks. Picked mine up for R3k with foopod and HRM.
camelman Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Polar RS800cx. Got as a gift. Like the look of the watch. But slight little niggle - the speed and cadence sensors are dead now. Does anyone know what could be wrong? How to fix (if it can be)?Nope, no fixing. Gotta get new ones unfortunately. If at all possible try to check a manufacturing date before you buy. It happens that you buy an old one sometimes with a drained battery. Been there done that. Great watch if you can get it second hand for a steal. Would rather buy the V800 for the same price.
camelman Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Polar family here. Have the V800 that I absolutely love. Wife has an M400 that she really likes too. The M400 lacks some of the features of the V800, but for the price there is nothing better out there.My only gripes are no Windows phone sync and no Bluetooth sync to Windows PC.
arendoog Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Polar RCX5 .Works and WATERPROOF .Bryton hrm is rubbish
