Description of Polar WearLink+ Coded Transmitter and Belt Set (Medium-XX-Large)
Polar chest strap and transmitters sold as a set. Coded transmitter works with current models except CS600 and RS800 but only eliminates interference (cross-talk) when used with a coded wrist or head unit. User replaceable battery. Antibacterial fabric. Easy-to-use side opening hook. Front transmitter connection. Fits 27-Inch to 60-Inch.The Polar WearLink transmitter combines superior Polar technology with a new fabric design. The electrodes, which pick up the heart's signals, are engineered right into the fabric strap. The result is a superior fit for any individual body shape, providing revolutionary comfort and full freedom of movement. The transmitter's textile strap is removable and machine washable. Its clip-on mechanism ensures quick and easy wear, and the belt is easy to put on and take off.
Polar's coded technology ensures that the user picks up only their heart signal, and not the signal of another heart rate monitor nearby. With millions of HRMs in use today, there's a good chance that someone working out next to you may also have one on. Interference from any other HRM is now eliminated and an accurate signal is ensured.
About Polar
The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.
Sports reviews of Polar WearLink+ Coded Transmitter and Belt Set (Medium-XX-Large)
Customer Review: vast improvement
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I have owned various polar heart monitors over the past decade. This particular band is a huge improvement. The wearlink transmitter detatches. This makes the band and the snaps that hold the transmitter much easier to clean. Also, the strap is one separate integrel unit that doesn't depend on the transmitter to complete the circuit. This makes it easier fot the strap to maintain contact with the skin, and leads to less corosion. All in all a superior productCustomer Review: Good product, working as should.
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I lost the original transmitter that cames with the Polar and I saw that my polar works with the Polar Wearlink Coded model, so I bought this model and it is working fine. I really like this wearlink, and the differential to buy this specific model was the option to change battery, because the regular one does not offer this option, once the battery stop to work, you need to buy a new one.
Summary, it is good and works fine, in my case I really like it.
Customer Review: Polar Chest Strap Heart Monitor
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I wanted to do some conditioning training, but didn't need the watch/receiver since the treadmill at my gym receives signal from HR monitors. This unit is great, comfortable to wear (actually, I don't know I have it on) and it's far more accurate than the grip HR monitor built into the treadmill. I can reach and maintain my target HR with ease. In fact, when I do decide to do some actual roadwork, I'll pick up the watch/receiver from Polar.Customer Review: Cannot workout without it!

This is not even comparable with the strap I got when I bought the unit.
I use it for long hikes/climbs and sometimes I wear it for 12 hours; the old one was leaving me bruises, the Polar Wearlink is just perfect.
Big plus that you can change the battery.
Somebody was complaining it takes a long time before starting transmitting: you have to moisten it and it will work right away!
Customer Review: Polar transmitter

I purchased this item along with a Polar heart rate monitor. The combination enables me to maintain my heart rate within the desired range during cardio exercises. I have also observed that this transmitter works with many of the treadmills, bicycles and eliptical machines at the gym so I can monitor my heart rate on the readout panel of the machine without checking my wrist monitor.
