Like most Garmin hand-held GPS units, turn it on and within a few moments it's ready to go. This compact sized GPS unit from Garmin is very easy to get to grips with, becoming familiar with it's easy to follow menu layout in no time at all. A very easy to use button configuration enables you to navigate your way through all of the menus, settings and options with relative ease. Operating with power from an in-built lithium cell it's normal operating time i find is about 20 hours, however, there is an on screen battery level display so you can keep an eye on your available power. This model comes with a plug in home charger which also doubles up as an in car charger, using the cigarette lighter or 12v in car power socket so you should never run out of power, being able to charge as you drive to your chosen location for walk, run or fly! Don't worry about taking this out when the weather is not so nice, a little bit of rain won't harm it as it's waterproof and will even handle a good dunking in the river no problem, unlike yourself if it's in your pocket and you get soaked! The information this pocket sized unit provides is very impressive, giving you all the usual bearing and altitude features to info such as your maximum speed and current speed, very handy for me as i use this while kite buggying. Ideal for walking and running the unit also comes with a wrist strap so you can wear this very compact unit like an everyday watch enabling you to easily keep an eye on your pace, virtual running partner, way points, heading and other such info like date and time. The unit also has an alarm that will alert you when you drop below a certain preset speed, go over a preset maximum speed and other such alerts with a tone or beep. This unit is very compact with clean looks and comes in a dark grey coloured case with clear and easy to view screen which, if needed, can be back-lit in green, allowing easy viewing at night or in poor light conditions. All in all, a very simple and easy to use unit that's excellent value for money. By : Hightimes
