  1. I've got an old Polar "Pacer" that's about to go to heart monitor
    heaven after about 20 years of service bc the plastic is breaking
    down.

    Looking for a replacement that has snap-attachments to a chest
    belt - as opposed to an integrated belt - so I can use gel pads
    like the one shown.

    Read-out unit is moot bc I only use it with an exercise machine
    that reads the signal direct.

    Retailer web pages don't show enough detail to tell whether units
    are inter grated into the strap or have snap connectors.

    Anybody got a recent model that has the snap connectors?

    I'm assuming the signal protocol is standard across models - or
    that major exercise equipment mfrs like PreCor recognize all the
    commonly-used protocols.

    I have no information about a modern replacement with snaps, but I
    wonder why you need one with those old gummy pads?

    I have the cheapest Sigma and it works fine with exercise equipment.
