I am thinking of buying the Impact Sports ePulse Strapless Heart Rate Monitor Watch and Calorimeter. Does anyone currently use this or in the past? Any comments?

    Never tried it, but you need a chest strap to get accurate results.

    Get a Polar with a chest strap for around $80. Better accuracy and you'll see better results.

    If it doesn't have some type of chest strap you are likely to get an inaccurate reading. I would spend a little bit more and get a Polar or something comparable with the chest strap. Best investment I made for myself!

    I agree with the above posters. If the watch does not come with a chest strap it will give inaccurate reading. I read, on another post, that you have to keep pressing a button, on the watch, to keep getting a pulse. A watch with a chest strap, al you need to do is wet the strap, strap it on , turn on the watch ( to begin the exercise section) and watch it starts calculating calorie burn during the exercise section. I hope that helps...good luck!
