Just because you feel your question wasn't well received by me, does not mean you should not have ask or disccussed it. Maybe continuing with a more particular point about what it is you think might be different or better in one. Or is it that you think you might loose some feature that one gives and the other doesn't.

But since I'm back here, I did have another thought on the subject. Possibly it gets to dealing with network traffic. After all, the sensor is using a network protocol of some sort to communicate. I read some years back when Ant+ was coming out that they speculated in a large group of riders with ant+ sensors there would be some overload or missed messages from your sensor, due to the fact that your head unit also has to inspect the message from every other sensor in range to see if it's yours or not.

I seem to remember the article saying as few as 60 sensors transmitting in range of each other might be the point at which communications get dicey. It was all speculative and theory. No actual testing that I know of.

So in that light, if you ride in a group with a lot of other people using sensors and you have issues, then try using the other method.

Though I'm not certain at what level the difference between Bluetooth units and Ant+ lies. I thought that Ant+ was simply a piggyback on the bluetooth tech. But that must not be quite true. If it were, then someone would have come up with an app to utilize Ant+ on smartphones that only have bluetooth.

Never assume the intended emotion behind written conversation. It's easy to misunderstand.
