    From what i've read (and heard) Polar seem to be a pretty reliable brand. I only have a cheapo at the moment which is playing up. so plan on getting a polar in a few months.

    I bought a Polar F7, and the absolute cheapest place I could find in NZ was here: http://www.fuelme.co.nz/shop/heart-rate-monitors/ I love my F7!!

    I got my Polar second hand off TM, $30. It wasn't going, needed battery and chest strap tested, took it to the distributor in Parnell and they serviced it for free! :bigsmile:
