Wahoo introduces Track rechargeable heart rate strap

On Tuesday, Wahoo Fitness  introduced the Trackr HR, a new heart rate monitor featuring advanced processing technology for accurate metrics. This device is equipped with a rechargeable battery offering over 100 hours of active use, eliminating the need for coin cell batteries.

The latest strap model is more compact than its predecessor, ranging from 68.5cm to 87.6cm in length. Despite its smaller size, the enhanced elasticity ensures it can accommodate chest sizes up to 127cm. A new side closure design replaces the previous method of attaching directly to the heart rate pod. Furthermore, the charging cable now features a magnetic head that connects to it, with a USB-C connector on the opposite end.

Wahoo says the strap weighs 51g.
