Hello everyone !!

Can someone tell me how long can you be in the pool/beach with the free style sensor placed?

I currently use them and I don't want to pass me and spoil it ... Q is enough!

Good morning: the sensor is not going to spoil for bathing with him in the pool.In any case, I recommend covering it, for example, with Fixomull, like many in this forum (where I discovered it);In this way you protect the freestyle adhesive (especially is important on the beach).Regarding the duration of the bathroom, you do not tell you ... I bathe normally with him, in beach and pool, and I have not had any problem with the adhesion of the sensor or with the coherence of the measurements.It is also true that I do not do the goat in the water, I bathe normally, but I am the time I feel like, I am not looking at the time to see when I have to leave ...

I use it and the only thing they have recommended is that it does not lower more than a meter so as not to submit it to much pressure.Because of the duration in water there is no problem, the only thing that can be taken off for wetting a lot.
