Yes I wish to buy the Garmin 620, but want to know: Heart Rate Monitor 610 can be used with the Forerunner 620?

If your question is whether a HR strap from the 610 can be used with the 620, the answer is yes. Really any Ant+ HR strap an be paired to the 620 to give you HR data. BUT... if you want the running dynamics information (vertical oscillation and ground contact time), you need to get the new Garmin HRM-Run strap as it also contains motion sensing information. The built in cadence information on the 620 works with any Ant+ HR strap.

I went to HeartRateMonitor.com and purchased one from their listing of compatible monitors. I purchased a Gramin HRM2-SS. It works very well.

You would need a different model. The FR10 does not measure heart rate. I enjoy my Garmin FR410, which comes with or without a heart rate monitor. Some people don't like the touch bezel of the 410, but I don't have a problem with it. The Garmin 610 is a step up from the 410. It has an way to navigate touch screen, but the price is $399. I've researched these a lot and would stick with Garmin. Regardless of which Garmin you have, all of these sync with Garmin Connect. The amount of information given is impressive. After a run, all data can easily be synced to Garmin Connect. You can view a map of your workout, mile splits, and weather conditions. I don't even keep a running log anymore because I look on the calendar function Garmin has. You can also look at data for custom dates or pick a given time frame such as last week, last month, last year. If you have a Costco membership they sell the 410 near the jewelry, and if you don't like it jut return it, no questions asked! I'd be happy to answer any other questions. Let me know what you decide on!

It says in the description of the Garmin 405CX I received; "Forerunner 405CX comes with a flexible, wireless heart rate monitor to help you make the most out of your training". I don't use this but it there.

When I bought the Garmin 110, the heart rate monitor was about $65 extra. I regret buying the monitor as I find it gives inaccurate calorie counts. I walk 4 miles one day and it says that I used 90 calories and the next day 4 miles and it says that I used 300 calories. I am only interested in the calorie count.

Yes. if you want someone to be able to track you as you run, you need to pair the Forerunner 220 with a smart phone running an app from Garmin.

As further comment, one of the Forerunners can be used with cycling as well, albeit I am certain it does not have all the bells and whistles of the Edge 810 for cycling. However, I don't think the Forerunners allow loadup of maps.

Yes - this will work with the Forerunner 410. It is an ant+ enabled device and will pair together. However, isn't the Forerunner 410 a run-specific model? I could be wrong, but I think the 410 isn't designed for both running and cycling. The 310 or 910 models (on the other hand) allow you to switch between the two different sports. Runners, for instance, like to track their pace in mins per mile (ex: 8:05/mile), but cyclings track by miles per hour. If this is true and the 410 is built specifically for runners, you may want to consider investing into a "multi-sport" watch before purchasing the speed/cadence sensor. Doing this would allow you to look at run data while out pounding the pavement and bike data when cycling. Good luck!

I know it is compatible with the Garmin 110 Forerunner I have. I use it all the time and it is flawless.

While the 610 supports ANT+, the Tempe Sensor is not. It appears these are the supported ANT Sensors for the 610 - USB ANT Stick - Speed/Cadence Bike Sensor - Heart Rate Monitor - Soft Strap Premium Heart Rate Monitor - Foot Pod

The fenix 2 pretty much does what the forerunner does plus more. For me, looks better than the Suunto Ambit 2, although they are pretty much the same watch. As a fitness watch garmin does a better job of cataloging your workouts and displaying in various formats. Paired with the HRM it's definitely the way to go.

Yes. However, the HRM from Garmin is more expensive than buying as a package. But you are not limited to just a Garmin HRM. Just make sure it is an ANT+ compatible unit and you'll be fine.

I'm not sure, it paired with my Forerunner 610 watch. I just checked the Garmin website and it shows it as a compatible accessory to the Vivofit so I'd assume it would. See link below and select "compatible devices" tab, Vivofit is list at the bottom.https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/shop-by-accessories/fitness-sensors/soft-strap-premium-heart-rate-monitor/prod15490_010-10997-07.html

Not the cadence, but yes to heart rate. I've used my heart rate sensor with this Garmin. The new Garmin 1000 works with cadence, power, and heart rate. The Touring supports only heart rate only.

Hi Dwight,Thanks for your question. You can integrate with a Garmin heart rate monitor. Laurie

Yes, you can connect a Garmin HRM ANT+ HRM... Just understand it does not connect to this device, your HRM actually connects to the IPhone, which then communicates with this device. This is where the problems occur. If you wear a cycling jersey with the pocket in the back... you may, as many have, experience erratic connection between phone and RFLKT+ device... additional problems have been reported as a result of flapping jersey and wetness from sweat attenuating the signal. With the IPhone in back pock, not having line of sight with this device, the signal from the phone must bounce off things to get to the RFLKT+... or so it's reported in many reviews and user experiences. I now use the Wahoo Blue (with BT) HRM, Wahoo blue S/C BT speed/cadence sensor and Wahoo case for my IPhone and mount it right on my handlebar with Wahoo mount... this has resulted in error free data reporting of my HR, speed and cadence. Additionally, with the IPhone I have a bigger dashboard to view a whole lot more data while riding... I do not recommend the RFLKT+ as a long time cyclist with experience using multiple Timex, Garmin, Cateye sensors... the aforementioned has served me best while the RFLKT+ was a bust. Remember, the RFLKT+ isn't getting a signal from your HRM or speed/cadence sensor, rather the IPhone is forwarding the data to the RFLKT+... so why not just go with a far less expensive handlebar mount and case for IPhone.
