eTrex 10

Rugged handheld GPS with enhanced capabilities. Only Garmin could make the eTrex better. The new eTrex 10 retains the core functionality, rugged construction, affordability and long battery life that made eTrex the most dependable GPS device available. They improved the user interface and added a worldwide basemap, paperless geocaching and added support for spine mounting accessories.

Features:

• Worldwide basemap
• 25-hour battery life with 2 AA batteries
• User-friendly layout: Skip the confusion about how to find things. eTrex is easy to use with intuitive navigation screens
• See the way:
• Enhanced 2.2 in monochrome display that’s easy to read in any lighting situation
• Easy-to-use interface means you’ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for information
• Durable and waterproof - Legendary toughness that’s built to withstand the elements - be it dust, dirt, humidity or water
• Paperless geocaching:
• Supports GPX files for downloading geocaches and details straight to your unit
• Visit OpenCaching.com to start your geocaching adventure
• By going paperless, you're not only helping the environment but also making your geocaching more fun
• Stores and displays all the information you need, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions, which means no more manually entering coordinates and paper print outs
• Simply upload the geocache to your unit and start hunting for caches
• You can even display and enter grid references in Irish Grid (IG) or the new Irish Transverse Mercator (ITM) grid)
• Keep your fix: With its high-sensitivity, EGNOS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix® satellite prediction, eTrex 10 locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep valleys
• GPS and GLONASS satellites for faster positioning:
• First-ever consumer-grade receivers that can track both GPS and GLONASS satellites simultaneously
• GLONASS is a system developed by the Russian Federation that has been fully operational in 2012
• When using GLONASS satellites, the time it takes for the receiver to “lock on” to a position is (on average) approximately 20 percent faster than using GPS
• When using both GPS and GLONASS, the receiver has the ability to lock on to 24 more satellites than using GPS alone
• Customize eTrex for every occasion: Profiles allow eTrex to quickly switch into different configurations that you create, so when you’re done geocaching and you need to drive home, your eTrex won’t miss a beat
• More dashboards in more places: Bring more functionality into frequently used applications with personalized dashboards. Avoid switching between applications and display more information by customizing your dashboards with an altimeter, compass, configurable data fields and more
• Advanced tracking: Whether following a saved route or planning a new one, eTrex has the tracking features you need. See high and low elevation points or store waypoints along a track (start, finish and high/low altitude) to estimate time and distance between points
• Stores data in universally accepted GPX file format so its compatible with a variety of computer applications
