Keep in mind a few things. First, I didn’t pause GPS during any of my stops (including lunch stops inside a refuge, which would spike the GPS power draw to overcome being inside). The only exception being the last day when I realized I was getting tight on battery, and then the 2n...
Next, I can open up that waypoint and add a bunch of information into it. By default the GPS position is specified for me, and everything else is up to me to add. You can choose from a ton of icons, including apparently, a Panda bear. I wonder if the Panda bear icon haseverbeen...
Reader Dan C pointed out that GPS-based maps are useful even if you do have a pre-paid data SIM when overseas, as coverage can be patchy. This is true wherever you ride; blackspots exist pretty much anywhere. However, in most cases, you're likely to be in a coverage area. Some peo...

including all of that GPS workout time. When it comes to GPS workout battery burn, I’m definitely getting better results than their spec (which is 18 hours for SatIQ). Take, for example, this 2-hour cycling workout (with a power meter), my battery burn rate puts me on course for...
The most common question I receive outside of the “what’s the best GPS watch for me” variant, are photography-esq based. So in efforts to combat the amount of emails I need to sort through on a daily basis, I’ve complied this “My Photography Gear” post for your curious minds ...
This may be a bit more work, but are you going to one day list all the GPS watches on one table so everyone can get the comparison between ALL them at once? It would make it easier instead of having to slog through all the different reviews you’ve done to see just 5-6 GPS watch...
For me, I’m OK with that. I’ve been doing a bunch of runs in/around the city (and in snowy weather), without seeing any real issues. For example, here’s going right along buildings without any GPS variance: Here’s an example from actually earlier tonight where four GPS watches ...
You’ll see the direction of travel using the internal compass, which is displayed as a small red arrow on the edge near the bezel. Note that unlike the Fenix 5X, the FR935 doesn’t contain any actual map like you’d find on a car/phone GPS. Meaning, you won’t see streets, ...
Thanks for the in-depth reviews! Have you ever tested (or thought about testing) the elevation gain metric for running and cycling using the altimeter? I have found the results to be quite varied when compared against GPS maps. I would certainly be useful to have accurate elevation data. Re...
