Hey there, I've gone through two Garmin heart monitors. Both packed in after about 3 years each. With both i tried changing the battery and it made no difference. What are people generally using in here? I'm thinking of ordering another garmin. Jon

I gave up on the Garmin and switched to Wahoo Tickr, cheaper reliable and last as long if not longer.

Bought the wahoo tickr 2020 model and have been using that. Have it paired with the head gps unit, works great.

Feck it, I ordered a Wahoo Tickr. Garmin has taken enough of my money to date and I expect better!

I have magene. The only think it's missing is an indicator that it has waken up.
