HR belts

Dear all,

i'm quite a newbie with these devices, and i would like to buy a new T6 watch. I'm used to swim a lot, and obviously i would like my T6 to work in the water too, anyway i've heard that the ANT belt is not always correctly doing its work. Does the Smart Belt do it or is it just a waste of money? Is Polar better in that?

Thanks for your help!

Suunto HR belts will not transmit to a t-Series watch while underwater. In fact, I'm not sure I know of any wireless HR transmitters that DO transmit underwater.

That said, if your primary activity is swimming, you might consider the Suunto Smart Belt - or better yet, the forthcoming Memory Belt (coming in November) - which will record your workout data right in the belt. You can then later dowload to a PC to monitor your results. The Memory Belt also feeds to your t3, t4 or t6, so you can have real-time monitoring while engaged in out-of-the-water activities.

I have bought a memory belt for swimming use but cannot find out how to download the sessions.

In Training manager light, I can use instant monitoring but here the recorded session has activity level set wrong.
