Hi,
My heart rate on my computer during a portion of my riding time is 233. It goes back to normal once my actual heart rate drops to approx. 60% Max. Does this mean my transmitter battery is dying? The transmitter I have is a T31 type. I believe I have to replace the whole unit as opposed to just the battery. Where/who are the best people to get the replacement from and is there an exchange I can do for my old transmitter?

Thanks

    Every time mine gives funny results its because I havent made the sensors on the chest strap wet enough you need to give them a good soaking otherwise I find it either under reads or over reads or just gives sporadic results.

    So it might be that thats causing your problem...

    i am not using it any different than normal, so thats why I thought it was the battery. i will try to give it a good soak or even use oil/gel/vaseline.
    Thanks
