Ant+ iPad Dongle

Postby Big_Show » 18 Apr 2013 10:00

A lad in my office is just getting into running and has got himself a Garmin, but he can't connect it to his iPad to download the data from it. Apparently he needs something called an Ant+ iPad dongle to make the devices talk to each other. Would anyone happen to have a spare one of them lying around and accept a reasonable offer for it?

Not just any ANT+ dongle - needs to be Garmin's if the software he runs is Garmin. App/kit manufacturers make that connection to protect revenues. You can then pair the dongle with pretty much any ANT+ enabled end device though (foot pod / HRM / cadence sensor /etc.).

Before I got the 910xt I used Wahoo Fitness dongle with my iPhone - worked a treat. Still have it, but keeping it for when Mrs. kfjatek decides to take "this whole triathlon thing" more seriously, so not selling I'm afraid.
