[QUOTE="Antonm5012, post: 1316026, member: 330120"] It is an old thread, nonetheless my reply might still be relevant to somebody. Two points: - do not swim on the same day you started the sensor (adhesive material takes some time to adhere properly, so it will hold much better the next day!) - I use something called "microporous tape", that looks like paper (from Boots) on top of the sensor. Sticks easy and stays for 2 weeks (sensor duration) withstanding regular exercises, intensive sweating, 6-8 swimming sessions (short though), shower, jacuzzi.. After two weeks it looks worn but still holds. The only downside - it leave the glue residue when you peel it off and it is not easy to wash off. May need some scrubbing. [/QUOTE]
