Pros & Cons
Cons
It's very difficult to successfully open the unit, remove the old glued-in battery and replace it with a sold connection to a blind socket. Lasted 5 months.
Highlights
Quality
Resurrected an old gps, easy to replace and has continued to work well.
Remove 4 screws and use a small plastic prybar or guitar pick to snap open the case one snap at a time traveling around the screen.
Then flip up the screen not damaging the ribbon cord and unplug old battery and plug in new battery.
Now if i can only get this thing to stop losing satellite reception, it will still be mostly useless.
Price
Very good price, works fine and fast shipping
But this was a good fix even though the battery was $16, it gave me back power.
Competitiveness
Similar models have cheaper batteries that last 3+ hours.
