Suunto Spartan Trainer and HR Dual belt - does not work

[TonyG]

@Miloš-Tašković the dual HR Belt if I remember correctly is Ant+,
The Spartan Line and all newer Suunto Watches only accept Bluetooth HR belts.

@TonyG Seems like you are right. I don’t know why they have many different types of belts. I thought there is one universal belt you can use for any Suunto/Garmin watch… So wrong.

If it’s the dual, then it is “dual” ant+ and Bluetooth and it should work.

@isazi from memory I think it was called dual due to being ANT and ANT + protocols, I’m pretty sure it never had Bluetooth.

@isazi It is this one:

@Miloš-Tašković no that doesn’t work, I thought you had a Garmin dual, didn’t know this existed.

decathlon one works with both ant+ and bluetooth.

wow - this belt is like 15 years old technology.

Yeah, won’t work with any Suunto more recent than Ambit3

@Egika Was going to chime in here too. I still have that belt and it will not work with newer watches, not BT. Still works with my T6c, which still works….

Thanks guys, really helpful feedbacks. I was not smart enough to ask before the damage is made.
