New design much better |
My original Wearlink strap broke at the place where it goes into the transmitter. It was just plastic and I had used it for 2 years wearing 4 days weak for an average of 90 minutes a day workout. The orginal one stood the wear and tear pretty well. But still that design had a lot of parts where the plastic could break.
The new one is wrapped around the chest with a hook-like design where you slip the strap into the hook attached on one end of the strap. There are two button like leads in the front where you can place the transmitter.

Wearlink Strap on Polar products |
|
I have used the Polar FC11 watch which uses the Wearlink Strap to transmit pulse data to the wristwatch and then subsequently upload to the Web. I find the strap reliable, comfortable and easy to maintain. |

Poor design = not durable |
|
The new design is superior in a number of ways to the original wearlink strap: it's more comfortable, easier to put on, and the transmitter does not touch your skin (and therefore isn't exposed to sweat). Unfortunately, there is a serious weak link in the design: There is a metal hook at one end of the strap that catches onto a fabric loop at the other end, holding the strap together. The fabric loop isn't strong enough, and mine tore off after about two months. You'll see similar complaints in other reviews. There is no easy way to repair the problem. Unfortunately, if you need a replacement strap for your wearlink transmitter, this seems to be the only game in town. |

Much better than the original |
|
I bought my Polar F11 about 2 years ago and the original Wearlink Strap failed on me just recently. This strap has been designed much better, and is far easier to put on and take off. No more wrestling with those plastic snaps, and the battery cover isn't up against your skin with this one either, so you don't have to worry as much about sweat corroding the battery or the snaps anymore. |

Replacement for F11 |
|
I bought this strap to replace the strap that came with my F11. The strap is perfect and works just like the original! |
