This review is from: S3 Stride Sensor W.I.N.D. (Sports)
Overall, I like the S3 sensor. I love the RS800 (and I also own the Garmin 405 but it sits idle). This is my primary HRM and that's not going to change based on the other alternatives out there. But...
One area that I find troublesome with the product is that periodically the signal from the footpod does not get picked up by the heart rate monitor. It seems to be from the way that the battery contacts are designed. Either the replacement of the battery or the jarring from the running compresses the contact points between the battery and the casing (which are nothing more than springy bands of folded metal). As you might imagine, after a while, these things get compressed and you stop getting signal from your footpod until you go in there and monkey around a bit. It's addressable and after awhile you get quite adept at managing this. But it seems silly that these guys haven't thought of a better solution around this. I had this issue after the first time that I replaced my battery. I can't imagine that product testing did not reveal this. Still all that said, this is part of the best HRM product out there for busy runners. I think the Garmin 405 is a neat running toy, but if you're going out every day and you want something that's low maintenance and doesn't require you to religiously recharge the device or stand shivering waiting for the satellites... this is it.

S3 Foot Pod Review,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: S3 Stride Sensor W.I.N.D. (Sports)
The s3 foot pod works very well. I have used one for several years and very rarely I go gunning without it. It is small enough that I do not notice it being attached to my shoe when I go running. It has never detached itself from the shoe. I have changed the battery in it about twice a year. I use it with the rs800sd. Two thumbs-up!

Polar S3 Foot Pod,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: S3 Stride Sensor W.I.N.D. (Sports)
excellent device...works accutately every time I use. The mount secures the device between the shoe laces and you don't even know you are wearing it. Great accessory to the Polar RS800 watch.
