How do you know it's dead? Mine is older than that and they said it
was
fine (you send in the watch AND the strap and they check both).

I had a flat watch battery 3 months after getting it but it was fairly
obvious it was the watch and not the chest strap because the whole thing
stopped working. I only had it replaced at the local jewellers and found
there must be something special about replacing the batteries by the
authorised dealers because the warning beep outside the zone has never
worked since. After a day or so I found I preferred it that way, much
more peaceful.

You can switch that on and off by holding down (I think) the two side
buttons at the same time. Have you tried?

I switch it off when I accidentally forget to change the zone setting.
Oops.

Yep have tried that in the past but the beep is definitely gone.

I don't think I ever had a beep... sob

Chest straps should last 2-3 reciever batteries. I have owned and used
polar HRM for 12 or so years and can tell you if you send strap with it
they will tell you its nearly dead and charge you for a new one. Watch
battery is easy to change as long as you seat the seal properly.
(screens tend to burn out around 3yr mark on previous models have only
had S series for 1yr so see if it lasts longer then previous models).

In NSW we have a shop called battery world who can order you a CR 2354
battery for $7. I always keep 2 spares now as I replace them for all my
training partners. If you need a battery and cannot get one let me know
and I will arrange one or more for you.

G'day 'dutch,

Yeah been absent for awhile.......Hippy got me 'banned' from here
during 'business' hours!.....Work has this firewall thingo called 'web
marshall'....it s'posed to filter out undesirable sites......Hippy
posted some photo's one day under a thread called "bike Porn"......the
firewall cracked it with the 'Porn' bit & blocked access to the site
forever more. Of course I could go to the IT guru's & tell 'em it's not
actually 'porn'.....but as I'm s'posed to be working rather than talking
to you blokes......wadday reckon my chances are?.....Zip.....I'm over on
'Bikeforums' during business hours...a good bunch of Aussies over there
too...giving all the seppo's some serious grief!.....I cruise in here
sometimes at night to see what you guys are up to....but not being
'live' leaves me out of the loop abit...I swear I'm gunna come on one
of these BR's soon...sounds like alot of fun!....when you see Hippy
next...punch him for me!,

cheers,

Hitchy
