I have noticed that when jogging on the spot, the Inspire 2 heart rate is reading crazy numbers up to 190 and 200 which, I am sure , upsets the calories burned and all the other info for the day. The step count is correct. My real heartrate is probably around 90 - 100 when doing this. I have tried tightening the band and moving it around on my wrist but to no effect.

Not sure how to deal with this problem.

Hi SuRoy,

I've had issues with accuracy myself with heart rate.

You might want to do try what I did and try using clippers to trim your arm hair down.

As well if you have any salt or soap residue on your heart rate sensor you will want to give it a clean.

Q-Tips and hand sanitizer do wonders for removing residues I find.

Hope that helps,
