Garmin Carabiner Clip Accessory, Compatible with Various Garmin Handhelds, (010-12897-01),Black

Just what I was looking for

Price point is a bit of a gouge. Does what it is intended to do but Garmin should be ashamed.

I like the way I can now clip my Garmin to my life jacket making it more accessible.

The old version had a larger carabineer which was more sturdy. I was very disappointed with the new carabineer.

Nothing to write home about. It’s exactly what you see. I put my 64sx and it fits great. I don’t understand the bad reviews. It works fine. Don’t muscle the carabiner and you’ll be fine.

Good construction and materials

Works very well. Does not easily come off of the garmin. Keeps my 64s close at hand on my pack shoulder strap. I do not mind having to remove it to view the gps as a gps should only be used when needed. The placement is good, in an emergency situation it is perfectly placed at the pack shoulder strap. Similar to a morikniva which has a button hole for the jacket chest button. In an emergency you are likely to end up with your hands close in, a good example is in a bear attack, Kodiak guides will keep a knife on their chest. Similarly if you were to become injured it is much easier to access a gps attached to your chest than one on your hip or buried in your pack. The only aspect that I do not like is that the unit is highly visible and anyone who sees it will know that you’re carrying high end gear, not that there are many thieves roaming the wilderness but you never know. Overall I like this better than the other options and I’ve found it to be the most secure offering by garmin. Highly recommend.

Clipped right into my Garmin Rino and doesnt seem like it would unclick accidentally. Very happy with it.

Attaches easily

A little on the high price but you do get your moneys worth out of this, tends to be a high quality carrbeaner with a more squarish shape, garmin really took time to engineer this to be quality
