Re: [RC] [RC] Heart Monitor electrodes - AprilHi, Tess, I use a neoprene girth. I have a wide soft velcro strap that goes around the girth and the electrode sticks to it. I have never had a problem with it rubbing my horse and I use my HRM for almost every single mile I'm on him. I believe the strap came with my HRM? You might want to check with Roger Rittenhouse (http://www.vmaxept.com/) to see if he has such a thing. I often ride with my girth loose, so I often have a problem with the electrode actually making contact. I have a Dixie Midnight pad that I cut down to size and kept the scraps. I folded up one of the scraps and put it between the girth and the velcro strap to push the electrode away from the girth. Works great. Good luck, April Nashville, TN On Tue, 14 Sep 2004 13:09:39 GMT, Ridecamp Guest <guest-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Please Reply to: Tess Searcy morabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== For those who use the neoprene girts or any girth that is not "fuzzy" how do you attach the electrode to your girth? I have a couple of fuzzy straps that I had made to go around my neoprene girth & my electrode then sticks to the little strap. The strap is made out of fleece so the electrode will stick but I believe that this strap causes some irritation to one of my horses. Never on the opposite side where there is no extra strap & never when I don't use the strap & heart monitor with electrode. Will the electrode stay under the girth with out something to stick to?????
