 Doesn't work for me either, and poor customer support. July 24, 2008

It was erratic. I tried with the gell and different positions (on the back etc.) as recommended in the trouble shooter guide. I contacted customer support and they said "sorry, it doesn't work for everyone." That was not the most helpful reply I have ever gotten.
I am considerably overweight and have a heart condition. That's why I was willing to put up the bucks to help make my training as safe and as effective as possible. It probably has trouble detecting through the fat layer so I am in a catch 22, it won't work till I lose the fat but it is harder to loose weight with out the heart rate monitor.
Gah!!!
Fortunately the $55 finger on the buttons sensor works like a champ so I have something but I have no choice but to send the 305 with useless monitor back to Amazon.
 Works fine May 19, 2008
Bought this to replace the original one that came with the unit that I lost somewhere. Works fine, doesn't miss a beat.

Mine has never worked. I asked Garmin for a replacement and they ignored me.

I have a Heart Rate Transmitter & Strap. It doesn't work. I sent many e-mails to Garmin and got absolutely no help from them. (That's unusual for Garmin.)
 Great for use with the 305, but doesn't do Polar January 24, 2008

I've found the Garmin HRM strap to be very reliable and easy to use for both running and cycling, much more so than my Polar WearLink strap which seems finicky by comparison. Considering the sensor section is made of a rather firm plastic, the strap is surprisingly comfortable; I have no discomfort even after 3 hours on the bike and a couple of hours running.
My only minor criticism is that Garmin's strap isn't compatible with Polar equipment, which means I don't get the handy HR readout directly from the cardio equipment at the gym; I have to either wear my 305 on my wrist or mount it on the treadmill etc., which necessitates having to keep glancing down every so often to make sure I'm in my desired zone, vs. having the HR readout almost in my eye line as it would be with a Polar strap talking to the equipment. Yes, I know could use the 305's audible alarms, but it can get annoying for people running next to me and I do try to be courteous :-)
If it talked to Polar equipment, I'd rate this product 5 stars.
