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, after 1 week of using Finis Aquapulse here is my review:
I like it.... I am happy with it, it is more confortable than using chest strap. I love to swim without the chest strap and t-shirt... The accuracy in the pool is the same than Polar HR.
The volume is good but NOT excelent. I would like to have more volume.... because I can hear 80% of the time, I use 10second interval so I have good feedback of my HR.
One tip: I use 2 cap. I put gogles and attach AP, then I put a soft lycra cap and cover the AP with it, and then put the second cap (latex one). It helps me to reduce the water noise and keep AP in fixed position.
Hope my tip helps
