Nike+ iPod Nano Sensor: Low Battery

I remember reading the instruction book when I bought my Nike+ sensor that it would eventually die but I had no idea it would be so soon. I have to confess I never turn off the sensor and have run over 531 miles in the last year with it so it has certainly taken a beating but I would have expected it to last at least as long as a watch battery.

The units are sealed so it means I have to pay another $30 for a new sensor now. It's pretty good value if you break it down: $30 = about 5 cents per run OR 8 cents per day for statistics about my running patterns and a pace guide.

Ewa's Gravatar hi there,
my sensor batter died just the other day as well (after about 650km).. but you can buy just the sensor online at the apple website (it was $25 Canadian, and I think I saw it for $19US...)
