Garmin 010-01772-00 Foretrex 601, 2 inches

I love the foretrex line of Garmin GPSs it takes some prior planning with a map to plot coordinates and gives you a track log that zooms into I think 30ft so if you loose the trail you can easily get back on the trail by back tracking. The garmin connect to the phone is cool too. I love the fact that despite all its data being displayed that Garmin has the most Sattilites in orbit.

As a combat veteran I use gear to its full potential. This is my second one. The first I lost after a long tunmble down a hill/cliff. I looked several times but could not find it, so I had to buy another. This is the perfect size. Has numerous features. It has never failed me. Battery usage if great. I normally use lithium in it. I used similar in combat. I would recommend this!

Das erste Exemplar hat keine Satelliten gefunden. Garmin hat es ausgetauscht. Jetzt geht es. Satelliten werden schnell und auch in der Stadt gut gefunden.

So far, so good. The crazy heavy rain over the last 2 days has hampered my attempts to go out in the wilderness and put it through the initial paces.

Llego en perfecto estado, muy fácil de usar es muy intuitivo, la duración de la batería es muy buena eso si ha que comprar unas pilas AAA de calidad.

It captures GPS signals well even in South Korea, where there is a lot of electromagnetic waves. Didn’t notice huge difference on performance for 401 though.

I tested it on hunting , almost unusable , because always loos or can’t find GPS signal. Don’t recommended this product.

The Foretrex 601 seems like a very well made product with many powerful features and one glaring omission (for me anyway): there is no way to set an alarm. In watch mode it simply tells the time, nothing else (plus it turns off GPS communications, to save battery life). In navigation mode (as opposed to watch mode) it has a countdown timer, but it is limited to a maximum of 99 minutes and 59 seconds.

Mega .

Excellent piece of kit, as expected. Lasts for ages on the batteries. Small form factor and a price ledge to use. No clever maps and hence no added expense.
