MIO ALPHA Strapless Continuous Heart Rate Monitor
Love your heart rate monitor's chest strap? We didn't think so. With the MIO ALPHA heart rate monitor, kiss your sliding, chafing chest strap goodbye and enjoy accurate, comfortable monitoring! Strapless, continuous heart-rate monitoring breaks the mold with 2 light beams and an electro-optical cell in the case back that sense the volume of blood in your wrist. Signal from the electro-optical cell pulsates in sync with rhythm of your heart; advanced electronic circuit processes signal and passes it to the embedded computer program. Separate motion sensor compensates for disruptions caused by arm movements that would otherwise interfere with the signal. User-settable heart rate zones feature 3-color visual alerts (blue: too low; green: in the zone; red: too high) and audible alerts to keep you within your heart-rate target. Negative dot-matrix LCD screen provides continuous heart rate display. Data review includes total exercise time, average heart rate and time within your target zone; other features include a stopwatch and clock. Energy-efficient Bluetooth® Smart wireless transmitter works with popular exercise apps on iPhone 4 and 5 to combine heart rate info with speed, GPS, distance and pace. Compatible apps include Endomondo, Wahoo Fitness, MapMyRun, MapMyRide, RunKeeper, Strava, miCoach and iBike. The MIO ALPHA heart rate monitor features a soft silicone wristband with a secure snap latch, USB charging dock with magnetic alignment and a rechargeable lithium battery.
