Overall good product

I bought this product a few days ago, and it gives good data. Only gripe is you have to have a garmin watch for it to go to your phone. Works with a concept 2 RowErg well.

Great, after initial setup.

Set up was originally clumsy but after starting over and removing past profiles on my Garmin Edge 1050, iPhone 17's Bluetooth and reinstalling the Garmin Connect app, it seemed to work as expected. I set the green LED to always blink 3 times while wearing it to allow a better visual indicator as to when the device is powered on. Just remember to remove the pod from the strap when you are finished so it goes back into sleep mode quickly (usually 30-60 seconds). I generally rinse my strap off in warm water after each ride as opposed to machine washing it. It was an update from the original Garmin Dual in which I lost the pod after a race (left it on to of the car as I drove away). The new pod is a little bulkier but I do like the LED feature more as well as the built in battery removal tool instead of that old torx tool I could never find.

Trouble pairing
on June 21, 2026
Posted by: LeslieM
I bought the HRM-200 3 months ago for my Fenix 5 Plus and it worked great - until it didn't anymore. It still works just fine with my Peloton bike, but no longer will connect to the Fenix. Even more aggravating is that it does connect to "Garmin Connect app" and shows connected there. I will call Garmin support tomorrow to sort it out.

Heart rate monitor that doesn’t monitor heart rate

Only heart rate monitor that does not monitor your heart rate! Tells you later in the app if you died!!

Junk sensor

Bought this ~2 months ago and have had 3+ support calls relating to not pairing, pairing then dropping quickly, pairing then reading zero, then reading intermittently, then turning into a random number generator with HR swings of 2-30+ bpm while doing steady state intervals. Garmin support was good at attempting to troubleshoot these and finally warrantied the device. Hopefully the next one is better.
