@twekkel that is really impressive battery usage.

@JANTIKAINEN Polar claim that the Verity Sense can broadcast up to 150m. They don’t specify whether that is for the ANT+ or Bluetooth connection, so I assume both. I’ve never tested it and I don’t know what team sports you play but that should be sufficient for most if you can leave your watch at the edge of the pitch/court.

@larrybbaker ah very useful for my other devices too, you can even see the data from the hr senson in hex values

@herlas said in Smart Sensor faulty recording and discrepancy with the display: @Yves-Jenni what’s your watch? The Suunto Run @Gunnar said in Smart Sensor faulty recording and discrepancy with the display: You can find the support chat in the app. Ah, Thank you

@Stefano-M64 said in Small wrists (14cm) armbands?: @Luis-Andés-Olmedo said in Small wrists (14cm) armbands?: @Stefano-M64 thanks!!! if you buy it, be careful that there are 3 bars “hidden” inside a tiny box within the package … Thanks! I do not think I will buy that… I am looking for one with “quick fit” system. With the Coros one I need to put the bars and remove them if I want to use the Suunto band… I’ve not found yet a strap for 13-14cm…

@Legin25 Here’s how I set the sensors up. I put a spacer under the one on the crank to move it closer the the main body - hopefully the pictures are clear enough.

@psychopengy for a short moment let’s play with an idea that your Orca-Pioneer was marked just like your handheld Silva: imagine that zero was right below N and 180 was right below S. Now imagine securing this kind of compass to the bow of your kayak so that the compass window and that notch in the housing faces back, towards you. If you were paddling straight towards north with a compass like this which number would be there under that yellowish or reddish line in the housing? It would be 180 but that’s wrong!!! You were heading north, but the stupid marine compass says you are going to the direction of 180 degrees! That is why the N E S W letters and their corrensponding numbers must be on the opposite sides. This is the logic: marine compasses are always secured in place on the vessel so that the colorful line in the window faces back (or aft). You can look at the marine compass straight from above and you’ll see the compass rose (direction of north, east, south and west), but the numbers under that colorful line ALWAYS indicate which way your bow is pointing! Just mount your Orca-Pioneer to the bow of your kayak (not right under your nose, but really to the bow) and start paddling. The number under that line keeps showing the direction you’re headed. When moving north it’ll show zero while the letter N on the compass rose is on the opposite side. I hope this explained the logic. Back in the days I used to have a scuba diving compass on my wrist and that worked just like marine compasses. There were actually two windows, one above and one on the side. From the top window I could see the compass rose and raising my wrist right in front of my face the side window indicated my heading. [image: 1698384205488-suunto-sk-7.png]

@sartoric aaaa ok ok, sorry

@Todd-Danielczyk Thx for your help!

Hey @Audaxjoe thansk for replying I‘m already the owner of different Bands (Color). The M/L size is tight on a 7mm wetsuit and (for me) impossible to wear on a drysuit. Looks Like I have to wait for XL straps

@Stoke80 yes, sorry for my english just found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUuuNgRAxhU

@wzxecr but keep in mind that my feelings may not be the same for everybody !

@Greennorth I bought a like of straps from AliExpress super cheap and they’ve been great!

@luke55 I have found Velcro straps give me better OHR readings than the Silicone ones. You can order 22mm velcro straps from Amazon and pins to add for holding the band. You won’t be able to change bands quickly but I prefer the Velcro bands.

@cosme-costa agree. Karoo is great.

I have the same issue, any idea how to fix it?

They don’t seem to be available, but someone found a clever solution: https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/17g7kk2/finally_done_suunto_x9_x10_rubber_strap/?show=original Maybe that helps

This would be a good idea because the current offer for cyclists is very poor - e.g. sensors, import and integration of activities from other services and devices.

@Christophe-Roos I can confirm your observation: I have a Suunto watch and when it ran out of battery once, I thought I use the Smart Sensor belt on its own, with the app (this is possible with the Polar belt and the Polar Beat app). The app offers to record an exercise, but one cannot couple sensors to the app. You definitely need a Suunto watch between the app and the Smart Sensor.

@vinc14 Maybe because they have decided it according to market and default size for almost everyone is M. If not, they probably would need inventory for something they might not sold. Just guessing.
