bodybuggs calorie burn number vs that of a heart rate monitor??

Another great Q & A from Apex:

 

Q – “ I walked for 40 minutes at about 3.5 to 5 include, 3.6 mph, the bodybugg™ has me burning 240 calories and my heart rate monitor has me burning 345 calories.  My average heart rate was 130 (69%).

 

Reader’s Digest version of the answer – The heart rate monitor is using only one piece of information, but the bodybugg™ uses multiple pieces….
