From my own experience (My clan holds an interclan tournament with S&D), I found that the Heartbeat Sensor works pretty good.  While my squad is covering me, I go to a position where I can use my HBS to scan a bomb site (For example the machine room in Gray Hammer) to give my team a better understanding of how many hostiles are ahead and their general direction.  If we have targets near the door, we know to toss flashes/smokes first.  If not, then we know where to run in and to take aim.Overall, HBS increases survivability of the team by a large amount.  I guess what it comes down to though, is how you use it and in what situation.  If you're alone without any cover, you'll have to be careful about where you use it obviously.</blockquote>
