You'll do...

By Alarmed Mutant on May 2, 2010

Color: Black/Grey Verified Purchase

I had the Garmin Foretrex 101 and it worked great until it got stolen. I have the 301 now and it works just as well. The only problem I had with the 101 was the strap. It was held onto the GPS unit with crappy watch pins. I'm in the military, so if you have to put a heavy ruck on and off quickly, and you get the ruck strap caught on the GPS, the unit would pop off the strap. Then, you are trying to find a tiny watch pin with NVGs on a mountain. Also, the strap that comes with it is just a bit too short, but the extension strap makes it too long. WTF?! It will barely fit on your wrist with nothing under it, but if you have a uniform on (ACU/BDU) you will have to use the extender and then it's too long and will move around.

For the 301 there is a better design to hold the strap onto the GPS. It uses screw in pins, so I think that problem is fixed and it shouldn't pop off. However, the strap length is still too short or too long. I am going to just buy a case where you can take the GPS and put it inside of a clear case and that has a Velcro strap.

I used the 101 on every mission in Afghanistan and it was really great to get quick grids of your location. Projecting points on the 101 and the 301 isn't that easy though. You can only choose distances at 100 meter intervals, so that's as accurate of grid as you will get. It's also not very easy to navigate the menu to get at the project waypoint screen. I just used it to quickly find out where I was, and for that it was fantastical.

The sensitivity of the receiver is awesome. You can pick up signals when it's sitting on the passenger seat of your car or when your in the woods walking. I ride mountain bike, and it seemed to work OK when I was under moderate cover at all speeds.Read more ›

extremely good for size and cost

By L. J. Wobker on January 9, 2010

Color: Black/Grey

Very happy with this little guy. I chose the 301 over the 401 because I wanted to track things based on GPS altitude and NOT barometric altitude. Specific example: pressurized aircraft cabins will not read correct altitude on the 401 because it's barometric... the GPS readings are slightly less accurate but ideal for what I needed.

There are lots of free software tools that read the GPX format that this device uses. You can also edit the onboard .gpx file directly if you really know what you're doing, which is very nice for bulk imports, etc. Just copy a valid .gpx file into the "GPX" folder (one level ABOVE the one that you download in the first place).

The GPS receiver is much, much more sensitive than earlier generations. It locks on to satellites in much less time, holds the signal better, and works through more overhead cover. This does NOT mean that you can take it into a cave and get a signal, nor will it work in the center of a widebody airliner... but it's still much better than anything else I've tried.

The logging and interface are a little cumbersome, but that's the tradeoff for making something this small and rugged (there are only four control buttons plus the one power button).

All in all, I've been exceptionally happy with mine.

Beware of the Picture!

By scottadmire on November 25, 2013

Verified Purchase

Though the picture shows an altitude screen with a bar graph, the 301 does NOT come with this capability. There is an elevation reading, but this is not based on an altimeter. The altitude screen only comes on the 401, which also has the altimeter.

We bought this as a gift for our father who loves hiking solely because of the easy to see altitude screen. Needless to say, I was disappointed when the item came in the mail. I called Amazon and told them to change the picture a week ago, but it still is showing the wrong thing.

Great GPS; manual is lacking

By William on July 5, 2013

Verified Purchase

I was looking for a GPS that I could use while running, and it was down to either this or a true wristwatch style GPS like Garmin's forerunner series. In the end I went with this because of the ability to set routes and waypoints and whatnot, and because I can use this double duty as a backpacking GPS and replace my old, heavy handheld Garmin Rhino I was using.

After using it for a couple of weeks I really like it. The strap was the right size for my wrist, though as others have said it's a close thing and it might not fit over clothing. Build quality overall seems to be top-notch and it is lightweight. I use energizer ultimate lithiums in this and they work fine; there is an option in settings to select battery type to whatever version you prefer (alkaline, lithium, etc).

Using the GPS is pretty straightforward, though I wish it had maybe one more button that they could offload some of the functions to. Each button ends up doing a lot. The user interface is good but some of the ways they nest various functions confuses me. It's workable, but I definitely wouldn't take this on a backpacking trip without the manual. Speaking of which...

The manual kinda stinks. You get a quick-start guide which actually isn't bad, but I then went online hoping to find a complete manual and what Garmin offers isn't much better than the quick-start guide. It explains where many functions ARE, but not what they DO. For example, I can set something called "spanner" to show, or not. Great, but what is spanner? Another example is battery modes. It has a number of options, but doesn't explain what the difference between each is. How much extra life will I get by using "battery saver" mode? What is "WAAS" battery mode?Read more ›
