Pros:
Small, rugged, waterproof, easy to use and great for bushwalking. Backligt display very easy to read at night
Cons:
Tedious to enter or edit data manually and slow to scroll through the waypoints. Trip odometer badly underestimates the distance when travelling on foot.
Overall:
Really good value for money. If all you want is a very basic unit for recording locations and finding them again it is excellent. It does not replace a compass and if you want to do more than this buy a more advanced unit.
Pros:
this produck is good and had good perfoma.
this produck have 3 meter accuracy
only use 2 x A3 baterrey for oprasional
easy navigation keybord
Cons:
need much power
depend on abstruction
didn't have indonesia base map
Overall:
best gps in their class and good price on it. you can use it without any problem but with the limit they have . you must often save you work at computer so your gps memory not full till you use it at forest, sea, or ather.
Pros:
reliable, cheap, easy to use, batteries last for days, convenient size
Cons:
Scrolling round alphabet for inputting waypoint names is slow
Overall:
I have used this device for 2 years. The most "off track" use was a 4-day hike/camping trek in scrub/forest in Lamington National Park. After 2 days, everything looks the same, but the 100 gave a "breadcrumb" trail with dozens of waypoints marked in. You can input a waypoint with 2 button presses, & the 100 will record it with sequential numbers, e.g. 014, 015,etc. You can name these if you want to. This enables you to backtrack out of a blocked gorge, for example. Units costing > $1250 have contour maps that make planning easier, but I found paper contour maps costing $20 solved that. Accuracy varied from a couple of metres to 30 metres, & is improved if you stand still for a minute before inputting a waypoint. Occasionally the signal is lost for a few minutes in thick scrub, but quickly resumes.
The 100 shows where you are, gives coordinates (find position on map) and gets you back to your car safely at the end. And THAT'S what counts!! Excellent unit.
