COOSPO Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor Armband ANT+ Heart Rate Monitor Rechargeable HRM Sensor for Peloton Garmin Polar Wahoo Strava DDP Yoga (One More Free Armband)

I purchased a beautiful new treadmill and decided that I wanted to take advantage of the treadmill’s Bluetooth connectivity with a heart rate monitor. I already spent enough on the treadmill so I was hoping to find an affordable option for the tiny little strap. This one is less than a quarter of the price of the official ifit heart rate strap. And it works. It is easy enough to connect it each time, and the bpm is accurate. I wear a garmin lily, and it is within a couple beats of that. It holds a charge well, charges quickly and easily. It is also simple to use - one spot to press off and on…flashes red as it is turning off, glows green when charging, flashes blue when it is on. I strap it on to my forearm. Truly that simple. I can see my heart rate on the monitor as I go through the workouts. The treadmill also adjusts my pace if my heart rate is too low or too high. It is great to have the data as I am training.

No se puede conectar a la aplicación, lo tuvimos que ue devolver. Después compré un fitbit.

So I was looking at the more expensive options out there such as Wahoo or Rythum but just couldn't justify the expense for something I wasn't sure how much I would use. So I found this product. It's basic, meaning no storage and they don't have their own app. However, it seems to work extremely well. It charges with a USB cord, monitors constatnly, Bluetooth works well, and no dropouts for me. The on/off button is basically the top and covered in rubber so no sweat can get in, and its nice and clicky. Accuracy seems good. (I haven't run it through any DC rainmaker levels of comparison though) Battery life seems good. Just use the Wahoo app or any other on your smartphone.

Well, it is certainly more convenient to wear than a chest HR monitor. Light as a feather. I like it a lot, but it does have occasional dropouts in readings - like its competitors. I have gone back to my Wahoo Tickr as my primary HR monitor, but I am keeping this one anyway.

I finally found a solution I like for tracking my heart rate when mountain biking. First I tried my fitness watch with HR function, but it gave inaccurate readings when going over rough surfaces. I then tried a chest strap I had previously used for running. It was accurate, but I found it uncomfortable. So I decided to buy this armband. At first I thought it might be inconvenient to detach and reattach the velcro every time. But then then I realized I could set it up at a fixed sizing where it just barely slides over my wrist. Then I just push it up my forearm until it fits snugly, so I'm never dealing with velcro after the initial sizing. It's pretty easy to do this because the material is a slightly stretchy neoprene-type fabric. Bottom line, it is comfortable to wear, convenient to use, and gives accurate results. It paired easily with a CooSpo bike computer as well as my iPhone 12.
