I just started using this thing. #1 how do you guys clean the watch and chest piece??? I can do the strap but I'm scared to clean the other two....can I use a sensitive baby wipe and wipe them? Also using this I've noticed my heartrate is off by about 4 or 5 beats is this normal?? Thanks for the help

    I just wipe mine with a damp cloth.

    Mine has days where it will be off by 10 beats or more. Sometimes, I'll go through a whole workout and can barely get into the "training" zone even though sweat is pouring and I can't talk, so something is definitely wonky with it. I tried all of the tips to clean the strap well, get it really wet against the skin, turn the chest monitor upside down, etc. It still has its days where it is definitely off, but most days it works well enough that I decided to keep it.
