@Mff73 I had that same experience with my new belt. I returned the belt (with the sensor attached to it) to the shop. They had to send it for repair because they also couldn’t remove it without damaging the belt.
Thanks.
The same feeling for me : too hard to remove it without damage.
I will contact Suunto. Bad luck. -

I will contact Suunto. Bad luck.I am still using an old belt as it is working, the new belt has not been opened. But, I leave my sensor on the belt all the time except when I put the belt in the washing machine. Why do you need to remove the sensor? If the new belt works better I will just stick to hand washing and probably never drop it in the washing machine. I leave the sensor attached when I hand wash the belt.

Keep me posted here . I hear ya

@Brad_Olwin
I used to remove it for some battery saving and cleaning (i rince belt and sensor separately).
Maybe it is useless, maybe not.
But at least, if i need to change battery, i will have to separate them
, and I prefer to contact support now the belt is brand new, than in weeks or months

Too late, they have been plugged without. I should have lubed before celebrating the union
-
@Brad_Olwin to change the battery of the sensor…
-
@surfboomerang Agreed, I do that maybe once a year. Sounds like this could be a problem. I am happy that you testers out there found out about this one before mine were irreversibly coupled.
-
@Brad_Olwin The way I found out was because the belt I ordered wasn’t working. I applied contact gel, but still no result. So I wanted to change the battery first before returning the belt and that is where the fun started.
I don’t know if there is a faulty batch, because the second one I received recently (after the world-wide belt shortage) works fine.
-
@surfboomerang I don’t have the issue with my belt (also new model). I bought it maybe a month ago, no longer than that.
-
It looks my belt has got the same problem.

@zhang965 Yes, is this a new generation belt or the older one?

old one
-
@zhang965 I am still using my old one but if a trip through the washing machine and they still act like this, time to throw it away. I have a new one but have not used it yet, waiting for the old one to die. Dimitrios tested the new one for 1 year and has had no issues. If you order a black belt from Suunto they will send the new one, not any other color and I do not know about other suppliers.
-
My belt is a new old-style never washed.
-
@zhang965 How new? I wash mine 1x per week and the old ones are typically dead after 8 months.
