That's pretty accurate on caloric burn daily

Couldn't care too much on the different modes...

I just want a nice accurate HRM that monitors my daily caloric burn...throughout the day.

Under 100 bucks plzzzzzz

Thanks :D

    meh, they're all about the same, imo. i have a timex one that i got off amazon for about 70$. some can cost more depending on the other bells and whistles that come with it. you just want a basic digital watch that connects to a HRM band.

    do you use any fitness apps on your phone?? comething like cardio trainer will connect via bluetooth to your HRM.

    but are you planning on wearing it all day??

    You can't wear an HRM all day.. they are made for wearing during purposeful exercise only. If you want to wear it all day, you need to bodybugg/body media fit/ fitbit.

    To the poster above me: No, not all HRM's are equal. Polar is going to be far more accurate in estimating calories than your Timex will ever be, for the simple fact that Polar lets you enter in all your info(age, weight,height, gender and Vo2max) while Timex, only lets you enter in weight, sometimes age and max/lower heart rate.

    To Op:
    If your looking for an HRM, get a Polar. Either the FT4 or FT7.. both are easy to use/set up and pretty accurate with calorie estimation.
