That's it - I've finally had enough. My Nike HRM]Triax15 which I bought 18 months ago has always worked only intermittently, eating batteries in the process, and has finally, ignominiously and expensively given up the ghost. I'm left with a very expensive and rather heavy and unsightly stopwatch which holds an amazing 15 laps - wow, great! I am oh so not impressed with Nike, let me tell you!
So if anybody can recommend a simple HRM that doesn't cost the earth and never fails I'd be really grateful - all I think I want is those training range warning thingummies rather than anything fancy like PC downloads and such. Any ideas? s.

Don't be too harsh on Nike - I now swear by their range of Dri-fit running kit...
Cheers
Dominic - Am thinking of going crazee and buying the Polar S210 - or should I be saving up to get the S610 for all groovy those extra features? do you find yourself using them that often, especially the whole PC download stuff? thanks. s.
Caz - if we touch base at the GSR, i'll have mine there and will be willing to bore you rigid!!
Will check out the Timex - boy, the choice is a bit overwhelming with these things, as is the thought of making another wrong purchase.

When you have bought your HRM an excellent book to go with it is Heart Monitor Training for the Compleat Idiot by John Parker, about £9 from www.amazon.co.uk.
It is generally accepted as the best book on the market, and even I understood it.
I ordered it for under 100 Pounds in Austria.
