Anybody got an Etrex 35 Touch? If so, what sort of life do you get out of a pair of batteries?
I am using new rechargeable batteries which give me a maximum of around 6 hours 30. That is in daylight (so no backlight) following a purple line on a track. This is nowhere near the claimed upto 16 or so hours (yes, I know, pinch of salt). It could be my charger, maybe it's not up to the job, but isn't a charger just a charger? I haven't, as yet, tried it with non-rechargeable lithium batteries.
Any thoughts?
