I've been mountain biking with an H64 for 4 years and no issues till about 2 weeks ago, I think I accidentally didn't close the back and some liquid got in. I cleaned it with _vinegar_ and now it works just like new again.
This is not a fair review with a click-bait title as by your own admission, you didn't clean and store it properly after using (user error). In fact, keeping any devices in wet humid environment is bad for them, regardless of brand.
I wanted to wax the chain, therefore I degreased it.. Though I know the factory lube for the chain is best.. but I've moved to wax chain ever since and not looking back because it's the cleanest way to maintain the drive train
I know what's the problem. It's the strap, you need the one with rubberized layer near the electroed. Because otherwise when there's a lot of sweat it will short circuit the electroded and the monitor will stop working until you wash the strap thoroughly again. If it goes long enough in short circuit mode it will broke. The newer version of the strap should have the rubberized strap.
Did you have any issues with the bike bricking? I’ve read that without disconnecting the battery it can cause some issues, but maybe the newer modules are coming pre-updated? Thanks for the video!
Thanks! I watched your video, was done in 10 minutes. I didn't have to wait for the tool and wire. I don't mind where it sits (Out front), it hidden and I can't see it. Really appreciate the video. BTW, keep the clips and use them for cable management, it really cleans up the cockpit.
This is why it cost so much less than Polar H9 for example. But what about the accuracy? I have both H10 and Magene and see that Magene H64 is so fast responsive, it differs a lot from H10 in high speed changes, h64 give immediate results, while H10 smoothering it.

My Magene H64 just lasted around 5 rides before it started to stop transmitting the heart rate (became more and more frequent). By around the 7th ride, it was already useless.
Agree with you, bought it on November and it died already in Early Jan. Looking for other alternative. between polar H10 and Garmin Tri which one do you recommend as for today? Thanks.
@@sportsmanmalaysia Dry the sensor, then seal the battery compartment with silicone to prevent sweat and water ingress. The sensor has problems in the middle of training, because then we start to sweat. If you seal the cover, the sensor will be operational.
I have the problem today , After sweating in ascent, sensor stop measure HR but was connected, i dismounted battery dont have rust but i bet enter the sweat, how close Better? Tape isolant?
i always remove my garmin hrm from the strap (and rinse the strap with running water) after every ride and put it in my storage .. still working after 5yrs, no rust whatsoever ..
Did you regularly wash your garmin tri? I know they say you should to improve longevity. I'm trying to figure out which to buy. I want running dynamcis and more reliable heart rate, and I want the ability to store it on the strap for a workout and then sync later if I don't have my watch with me. I have the fenix 5 so I want the HRM to be compatible. Would you recommend H10 or tri?
Yes I do wash the Garmin Tri regularly. I like it very much as well and it lasted a good 1 year for me before it stop working. Not sure best practice to take care of it properly. But if you're technically inclined and maybe let it fan dry it after every wash and use. It might last much longer. My polar is still working great and works well with my fenix3 but when you're not wearing the watch beside you data is not consistent. So go with the Garmin and take good care of it
It's really good. first time user, easy to disconnect for cleaning & rewaxing again. my friends have lots of issues with KMC chains not lasting. and you can see most waxing manufacturer have package their services to wax a YBN chain for you. you go to their store you only see YBN chain sold moltenspeedwax.com/collections/
Did you get this working or no? These Bryton sensors are getting some bad reviews. I’m thinking it’s worth spending the extra few dollars to get the wahoo or Garmin ones instead.
Any link i could read about these Bryton Cadence sensors? I'm thinking of getting one cos the one i have XOSS paired to Bryton 320 goes to sleep much too long after i commence peddling. It'll stay a sleep for a good 3 minutes and It'll stays connected after woken. And when you stop peddling, it goes into a long sleep again!
@@johnnahason4851 Problem is Magene product doesn't last, the latest unit i bought died on me after 2 weeks. the other unit lasted for 2 months max of daily use.
clean the corroded / rusted part with alcohol. it will work again. just use cotton bud and isopropyl alcohol, rub / tenyeh karat sampai clear. then it will be ok again. and then, remeber to apply some vaseline/petroleum jelly at the back/outside of the battery cover to prevent water/sweat from seeping into the battery compartment
