      @mich-heller Have not tried my H10 since getting my R2 but my Morpheus HRM works without issue.

        Can’t comment on the HR monitor you mentioned but I use the Coros HR monitor with my Race 2 - works great, connects immediately when I select an activity

        Have you tried updating the firmware on your HR monitor?

          I used my Coospo chest strap yesterday without issues. Immediately connected and told me what the watch was connecting to.

            @brianoverby with the Coros HRM as it is optical you won’t get ZoneSense, if that matters to you…

              I have a serious problem with H10…
              I have paired it to the watch but every time I start a workout it is very difficult to connect automatically.
              The battery on the H10 is brand new and has no issue when I connect to Polar flow or a Garmin 955.
              On the other hand Polar Verity sense behaves much better with the Race 2.
              I have deleted and re-paired the H10 but the problem remains.
              I am very annoyed by this problem.

                @Nikolai current design to connect to HR devices is for each sports mode to remember the HR device it connected to and next time you open the same sport mode it’ll try to connect automatically to that device only. If you want to change to another one, you’ll have to search for it and selected it from the list. It might change in a future release but that’s the main thing to be aware of.

                  @herlas thank you very much for your reply.
                  To be honest I find this limitation very strange and I don’t remember having it in other watches in the past.

                      The problems continue…
                      I deleted Polar verity sense.
                      I kept only Polar H10.
                      I did two runs on the treadmill and two indoor cycling sessions and everything worked fine…Today I had a long run and the problems returned.
                      After 20 minutes, the watch lost the connection completely. Then it paired again but the were spikes in the readings.
                      This can’t be happening…
                      It is crazy for me that Suunto can’t find a solution to pair the watch to the most popular chestrap without problems.
                      Any other ideas guys???
                      Should I reset the H10 for the first time after 4 years of usage without any issues?

                        sooo i dug out from the bootom of the closet my over 10 years old suunto smart hr belt. it’s rusty, it smells like hell, no amount of soap can wash the smell off… but at least it works 😄 looks like if you don’t wan’t the troubles, go with suunto strap 🤷
