I have a Polar FT4, not one of the wifi ones.
I just started using it again to find out my calories and max heart rate. Working good.
My question is - can I wear it for a whole day to see what my actual calories burned for a day are or will I drain the battery too much? Also will it stop working because it needs to be wet?

They're only meant to be used during exercise, and the calorie burns for an entire day would be overestimated.0
