I wanted something that would track how much time I spent in zone over the course of a day. Performance has a low end Polar on sale that I could get, with a coupon, for $40. Which is about what batteries would cost (needs both) to get mine going again. Of course, I have been doing really well without one; and my lazy bones are telling me not to bother.
Mentally, I am stuck. Is there an easy to use HRM that provides decent training info? Would I need new batteries to sell the Accurex?
I've had the battery replaced in my Polar HRM for 4 dollars at a jewelery shop. I suspect you'll get more interest if it works when you sell it and for 4 dollars, why not replace it.
