there aint none have tried all kinds if some one knows somebody knows how to wire in a jack so u can recharge a battery pack on the go i would be very intersted to try this with my garmin im spending 25 dollars or more a mnth on batteries tnx sorry didnt mean to change ur post

How in the world are you spending 25 dollars a month for batteries?


I use rechargables. I keep 2 in the unit, 2 in the truck and I always have more in the house charged up. 8 rechargable batteries last me many, many months. Heck I prolly go a month or close to it without having to change the batteries and that's when I am hunting 4 nights a week or so.

Now I don't have the backlight on when I run the Garmin, I run it dark and turn my light on to see it, but I have good battery life.

I have the old unit, not the new one so maybe that's it?

i do the same thing i keep 2 in the unit and 2 in my pouch , you will never run out

Walmart has a energizer rechargeable battery kit that comes with adapter to plug into the power outlet on your vehicle. Two in the Garmin and two in the charger. I think i paid like 15$ for it

I CAN NOT remember to turn mine off. I run through the batteries. I saw some rechargeable ones with charger at the dollar store today for 5 dollars

I use rechargeable Duracells. I charge them every 2 or 3 nights. Been using the same set for over a year now. So my battery costs are next to nothing.

there is nothing like rechargeable batteries

Danny, I used one set for over a year & half with no problems. When I say set I mean 2 in unit, 2 in my pocket just in case.

Your garmin needs to be set for recharable batteries also.

Eneloop by sanyo are the ones I use. Check on Ebay. the XX model i believe is 2700MAh.Claim they will still have 85% of thier power if left setting without use after three years.

yeah always change settings with diff batterys tnx

just a good set of duracell rechargables is all i have. buy your self the two battery charger and two batterys for about 15$ and you be good for a long time. i have been using the same two batterys for about 9 months and there still doing fine.

kcdawg.. The batteries only lasted 5 to 7 mins? Did you change the setting to rechargeable battery?
