It works       rating
by:       on: 18-Nov 2009

It's electrode cream. There's not really much to say. But I have used my polar heart rate monitor without it and there is no question that it works much better than saliva or waiting for enough sweat to build up to make a connection. Just a dab will do ya.
Disappointed       rating

I was very disappointed with this product. There was no monitor reading at all until I had worked up a good sweat and then there was a greasy stain left on the shirt I was wearing. Simply putting a drop of water on the monitor before putting it on worked much better for me than using this product. I haven't tried any other similar products, so I have nothing to compare this to; but if, as others say, this is better than the other available products, I guess I will stick with water.
Cream works as advertised       rating

This stuff works as advertised. Just use a little and you get the heart rate monitor to work all the time.
Spectra 360 and Buh-Bump       rating
by:       on: 11-May 2009

I have tried both Spectra 360 gel (about $9 for 8.5 oz) and Buh-Bump cream (about $7.50 for 2.5 oz) to improve the functioning of my heart rate monitor (HRM) chest strap. I prefer Spectra 360. Both products provided a good stable connection and heart rate readings. Spectra is a substantial gel that adheres well when you apply it to the chest strap. Buh-Bump is a thin liquid cream that tends to run and drip off the chest strap. Spectra cost me about $1/oz while Buh-Bump cost about $3/oz.

I need a reliable HRM reading because I use a treadmill program which sets the treadmill speed based on my heart rate. If my chest strap does not make a good connection, the heart rate reading jumps around, and the treadmill goes a little berserk trying to get my heart rate reading to the target rate.

Both products provided a good HRM chest strap connection, but Spectra 360 was cheaper and easier and more pleaseant to use.
