Heart Rate Monitor

Hey all, I need to replace my Polar FT7 Heart Rate Monitor. I prefer one with the chest strap since they seem to be more accurate. Also, I'd like the ability to interface with MFP, if possible. One important thing, actually, REALLY important. I have a pacemaker so interference is bad, bad, bad. Any suggestions?

    If you have a smart phone, Polar's H7 chest strap will talk to it over Bluetooth. You'll still need an app to make sense of the data.

    I have the Polar H7 chest strap and really like it. Is uses coded transmission to cut interference, for example if you were in a gym around other hr monitors. I use the Polar Beat app with it. You can sync it to MFP.
