Garmin Edge 800 - HR transmitter range?

Delta5

Can anyone comment on how far the Garmin Edge 800's HRM transmitter can be from the GPS before the signal is lost? For example, if you stop for a p in the bushes, or drop into a shop for a cheese stick - do you lose your HR data for that time?
Thanks

I'd say it was probably pretty good - judging by the number of 'cadence sensor' detected messages I get when out riding on the fixed in winter, even from across duel carriageways! Are you concerned of losing you peeing heart rate or are you some kind of sick/weird triathlete that wants to park your bike and run circles around it in some bizarre cross training ritual?!
