A lot More Comfortable and Less Expensive in the Long Run
By David De Sousa
One huge betterment from the initial transmitters (T31 or T61 transmitters) is that with this model (the Wearlink) you only have to buy a new battery and replace it once they ran out and your transmitter is ready to use again. With the basi ones you have to buy a new transmitter each time the battery dies, since the whole structure is sealed. So if your Polar wrist watch came with the T31 or T61, wait until the battery is finished and buy the Wearlink transmitter instead, you will save a lot of cash over the years (compare the 39.95 US$ that the T31 or T61 cost vs the cost of a alternate battery).
The other huge vantage is that the Wearlink transmitter is more confortable to wear, since it adapts better to the shape of your body since even the electrodes are flexible and are embedded in the fabric. Being flexible and all makes it requiring little effort to storage it your pocket when your finish training or if you are traveling.
In summary a great product for your Polar HRM, and a smart betterment if it is time to replace your old transmitter. Don’t buy another T31 or T61, buy this one instead.
I run with my Polar six days a week, and in all probability train with regards to ten hour a week with it. I used to have the T31 with my primary Polar (the M61) so I may tell you primary hand the Wearlink is far better. In summary more confortable, having little impact to wash, and a cash saver. I was more than happy to trow the old one away after I purchased this one.

Please check your size!
By S. Turner
This is a fantastic Heart Rate strap for multi-purpose exercisers. Because the unit is so small, and user servicable for batteries, it is improbable to be a problem for most people to use it for years. The only reason I have to take a star away is clarity of sizeing. The Med-XL band states that it is for 27″ – 54″; the XS-S labels itself for 22″ – 32″. My measurement is 30″; so in theory I could use either band; but in reality, I’m regarding as huge as you may go on the XS-S band; if you genuinely were attempting to wear it as a 31.5″ range, it would be performing chest compression; not just measuring your heart rate. If you genuinely have a 31″ or above span that you need to cross, do yourself a favour, and get the larger band!

Great transmitter
By A. Hensley
This is much more comfy than the band that came with my heart rate monitor watch. I strap it on and the instrumentation at my gym picks it up. I’m very pleased. I’m a 5’9 woman and weigh 145lbs and this size is right at the edge of being too small. I’d say it was a perfective fit.
