It seems that around 30 minutes and/or the 400-600 calorie mark, my t3c's calorie counter begins to lag way behind.  For example, today I had been averaging around 15-17 kcal a minute when it got to 601 kcal and went down to 1-2 kcal a minute.  This is while I was exercising at 88% of my max. 

 

I'm a man, 31 years old, 161lbs, and between bike commuting and the gym i exercise with the belt on around 15 hours a week.

 

I searched around, but was only able to find one other person with a similar problem, and the only advice he got was, "it's a faulty unit" . 

 

Anyone with better, sage advice?

 

Between this, the arcylic crystal (pretty sure i can scratch it with my mind alone), and a sensor belt that's falling apart (becoming frayed near the retainer, it's fine near the sensors and transmitter), I am aghast at Suunto's lack of quality. 

 

"Designed in Finland" doesn't mean dick when it's followed up with, "Made in China".
