Re: [RC] HRM Electroyde Slipping - Glenda Snodgrass

The Polar website now has instructions for endurance riders that recommends placing both electrodes on the near-side girth, none at all under the pad. See http://www.heartmonitors.com/horse/setting_polar_transmitter.htm

I put one on the billet strap above the girth buckle, and one in the usual spot on the girth, and it seems to work fine. I think this is a better solution for the new larger electrodes which always worried me under the saddle pad.

I am having a problem with the electrode that goes under the saddle near the withers , my horse is getting some white hairs where the electrode sits and I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how they fixed it ? My HRM is a Polar with the bigger electrode surface and I am wondering if a person could cut out an area on their pad to kind of recess it in a little bit ? This same HRM is no problem on my other horse but this horse is really sensitive , my saddle fits very well on him although when I ride with a looser cinch the electrode moves quite allot and I am constantly having to replace it under the saddle . I believe the V-Max has the smaller electrodes and was wondering if anyone has had any problems with them slipping around on them ?
