The H10 is the heart-rate strap most coaches and researchers reach for. ECG-quality readings paired with any Bluetooth or ANT+ device — your watch, Zwift, Peloton, your bike computer. No screen, no smartphone needed, runs for a full year on a coin-cell. Pair it to a wrist watch and trust the H10’s number.
Strengths
- Validated against ECG in research studies
- 400 hours on a single CR2025 battery
- Pairs with anything that speaks Bluetooth or ANT+
Tradeoffs
- Strap on the chest is less convenient than a wrist sensor
- Heart rate only — no SpO₂, sleep, or steps
- Strap fabric needs occasional washing
