Hello members:
I always swim with Heart Rate monitor. I am using Polar HR, but as you know it is not very comfortable to use a t-shirt to swim.
I want to know if someone of you is using the Finis Heart Rate Monitor:

What do you think of it ??
Does it meassure Heart rate with good accuracy ??
Finis HR seems to be very comfortable.
Thanks very much for your opinion
Well..of course the pool was closed b/c of water-polo tournament.
I was able to go to another pool and swam a few laps.
I really like it, I barely felt it there, the clip does not bother me and it stayed in place for 10 laps.
The volume seems low (at the highest setting) and the water noise made it hard for me to hear it. I need to try other positions, maybe it will improve...also trying it with earplugs may help (I think)...also I think I will learn to distinguish the number from the noise.
I can not say anything about accuracy or battery life yet.
Will comment again after a few more workouts.
PS: I found this article about HR in the pool, I think is interesting: www.howtobefit.com/swimming-heart-rate.htm
