Polar Oh1 works excellent but forget about using it in the health club

I have been using Polar products for years. All of their chest straps are recognized by most treadmills and workout equipment.

I purchased the Polar Oh1 with the same pretense. It synced perfectly with my V800. However, all the treadmills at my gym does not “see” this device. Meaning it does not communicate with it. Now I’m back to using my chest strap in the gym and using the OH1 outside. I was hoping to eliminate the chest strap. Well, I guess I did outdoors. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this item for its functionalityRead full review

I hope some updates will make it work better.

The polar flow app is a little to be desired. Some of the information does not correlate to my actual workout. The polar beat app is better but still lacks some features. Still relatively new to using this system. And mind you I only have oh1 device and my phone. No bike computer and no watch yet compatible with this oh1Read full review

Wish it had more!

It came with no box and or instructions! But it is brand new! And it connected with my phone and the app in literally seconds, so I'm happy that I brought this, because I needed it for class! And for this kind of price, well deserved!Read full review

A must have, but hard to find

I use this device for multiple sports. I needed to find a second one. So I reached out to Polar, they said they no longer carry it. I looked everyone, until I found it on eBay. I quickly picked it up because I know its value, this HR monitor is an excellent product. Read full review

Comfortable and accurate

I've tried 3 different watches with pulse monitors on them and they are great at measuring HR when at rest, but are all completely useless whenever it gets to exercising hard. I hike up big hills hard and quickly work up a sweat, which no doubt doesn't help either. I've never really liked the idea of a chest monitor as it's so visually obvious (I never wear a shirt), and I would imagine very quickly get sodden in sweat. When I saw this, I was intrigued - this looks to be the best of both worlds, but would it be just another LED waste of money?
Very pleasantly surprised to find it seemed to be spot on. I've been wearing it on my inner forearm - up nearer the elbow end. Very comfortable and stays put. The flashing green light is pretty bright in the dark, but I kind of like the reassurance that it is recording when you're going hard. Can't compare it to a chest monitor (I don't have one), but my experience seems to back up the great reviews I've read. I've always pushed my body to the limit when going and the consistant red zone readings right at my max HR and a little bit over back up my gut feeling all this time. HR varies up and down consistantly with an increase/decrease in exercise and is not affected by my cadence at all (like the wrist based ones seem to do a lot). Love the app and have now just ordered a Polar watch to go with it (not needed with this, but will be fun to watch my HR as I'm going rather than just looking at the (very awesome) readings after. Very impressed, and highly recommended!

Realiable reading. Comfy fit.

Very lightweight and gives pretty reliable reading. Don't freak out when it doesnt turn on out of the box. Simply charge it for at least an hour and you are good to go!

The band is pretty good too.Read full review

arm band

Not a chest band so it will lose your pulse as you do movements with your arms raised up above your head. Then, as you drop your arms, it will find your pulse again. Very minor.

Nice sensor

Nice optical sensor, however battery life is really short. You do have to recharge battery every 3 exercise session..

Best hart rate monitor

works well with new watches. Does not pair to old Tomtom, Garmin or even Polar.
