4.0 out of 5 stars It works, but only after........, December 29, 2008

This review is from: Garmin Heart Rate Monitor for Forerunner 305 and Edge 305 (010-10645-00) (Accessory)

My HR strap initially was not displaying bpm on my Forerunner 305.

To make it work do the following:
Use the mode button to get to
Settings>> General>> Accessories >> Restart Scan

It then worked well.

Frustrating that no box or instructions were included with the HR Strap.

I suspect this is a returned/gray market item.

Enjoy!

3.0 out of 5 stars Flaky in wind, September 6, 2007

Before getting the Garmin Edge 305, I owned a Polar HR. The strap on the Garmin is not so stiff and fits better in my mind. The difference is the attachment that is under-over whereas the Polar was the reverse.

My only grudge with the strap is that it increases HR betas in windy condition. It's not uncommon for my HR monitor to report well above my HR max. I've seen up to 250 bpm. Usually holding my jersey close to my body (or farther away) to prevent flapping brings my HR reading to normal. I ha the same issue with the Polar strap.

I have a Heart Rate Transmitter & Strap. It doesn't work. I sent many e-mails to Garmin and got absolutely no help from them. (That's unusual for Garmin.)
