So the Suunto stick is ANT2, which means that despite being Suunto it’s really just like any other ANT+ stick under the covers. Each channel is limited to one ANT+ accessory. Or – if you’ve got multiplayer type applications taking advantage of it. But when it comes to applications that may leverage the USB stick for real-time data transfer – such as TrainerRoad – the extra channels become really important if you have multiple ANT+ accessories (like Speed, Cadence, Power Meters, Heart Rate, etc…). In common scenarios like downloading your data, it doesn’t really matter. You can see the flavors on the back of virtually all sticks in tiny writing – “USB2 Wireless USB Stick”ĪNT1 had a limited number of channels (4), whereas the newer ANT2 stick has more channels (8). Well ok, it left my laptop to take these photos:īut, you may be asking how is it that a Suunto branded stick works with Garmin watches? See, when it comes to ANT+ USB sticks, there are basically two flavors – ANT1 (USB1) and ANT2 (USB2). That includes plane flights, to and from work, and all assortment of wanderings around town. In fact, aside from a few tests in other computers – it hasn’t left my laptop since the package arrived.
And the best thing is that with being so small, I can leave it in my laptop 24×7.
Just check it out in comparison to your normal ANT+ stick:Īs you can see, it’s tiny. I immediately ordered one and waited for the horribly oversized box from Amazon to arrive.īut I don’t think I was prepared for just how small it is once I got it all unboxed. So back in January when I was alerted to a much smaller USB ANT+ stick that could replace your existing Garmin ANT+ USB stick that you use with your current Forerunners I was pretty jazzed to give it a whirl. She’ll still likely try to steal it while giving me that innocent ‘I’m not guilty’ smile. But it doesn’t keep her from stealing my ANT stick. Somehow that paint scheme she did on hers only works one way in attempting to prevent me from stealing her stick. Having broken off various USB doo-dads from my computer before (as well as smart cards sticking out the side), breakage is a reality, and with it hanging off 1-2” into the wild blue yonder, it’s a prime target for a grade-A fail.Īnd I suppose a third issue is The Girl stealing it. Second, is the issue of it simply breaking off. But, I’ve since shared how I solved that problem. First up is the issue of simply losing the darn thing in my backpack or around the house.
