According to the product specialist
Pros
With a battery life of 400 hours, a battery lasts about a year if you train one hour a day. |
Can connect with your sports watch, cycle computer or fitness equipment via Bluetooth, ANT+ or 5kHz. |
Can connect with a Bluetooth and ANT+ device at the same time; this is ideal when you exercise with multiple devices such as a cycle computer and sports watch. |
Receive real-time heart rate data on your favourite training devices. |
A heart rate monitor with the accuracy that is characteristic of Garmin. |
A very long battery life: 3.5 years at an average use of 1 hour per day. |
Can connect with most bike computers and smartphones via Bluetooth and ANT+. |
Numerous smart functions such as oscillation (vertical movement), ground contact time, cadence and the option to train without a cycle computer, watch or smartphone thanks to the internal memory. |
The Wahoo TICKR X features ANT+ and Bluetooth. You can connect the TICKR X with up to 3 devices simultaneously, e.g. your smartphone, cycle computer and smartwatch. |
With a mere 48 grams, the TICKR X is the lightest heart rate strap on the market. You will hardly feel you're wearing it. |
The LED indicators are located on the top of the sensor, which makes it easy to see whether the connection between the heart rate monitor and your bike computer has been established. |
When using the Wahoo Fitness app or over 50 other training apps you have access to numerous workouts. |
Cons
The Polar H9 has no memory function or accelerometer. For these features please consider the Polar H10 heart rate sensor. |
Does not transmit heart rate data to a GPS device during swimming. |
For a simpler model with fewer features, you may want to consider the Wahoo TICKR. |
This product uses a replaceable button cell battery for its power supply, and is therefore not rechargeable. |
