Has anyone else noticed that the HR can just start climbing to crazy numbers for no reason? I notice it quite often and I it is disappointing, as it throws off all other metrics that are based on HR. For example, "earning" more than I know I actually am because the HR is so wrong PAI points, calories burned, Intensity Minutes, VO2, etc. - all based on HR).
Example, while leisurely exercising (walking), HR is around 95-105, but suddenly I get an alert that it is over 165. No matter what I do, change my arm, reposition the watch, etc, it doesn't go back to normal (checking my HR manually with my finger on my artery proves it is 95-105). Even if I take the watch off for a minute or two and put it back on, half the time it just goes back to the 150+ measurements. The sensor is very clean, I am not sweaty, it is on my arm the proper position and tightness, I just can't figure out why it suddenly just goes crazy, climbing and climbing. The first time it happened, I actually turned around and went home because I thought something must be terribly wrong with me, it was very off-putting.
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this and might have a solution. Thanks.
