Garmin GPSMAP 60csx

Picked up a Garmin GPSMAPS 60csx. This is by far one of these best handheld gps units made by Garmin. The GPSMap series incorporats a high sensity receiver by SiRF. It packs in a 20hour battery life, back lite screen and a tone of other features. The Garmin Gpsmap 60series is the predecessors to the 62 series line out now. There are a few improvements to the 62 series, but after further review I found those changes were not enough for me to buy a new unit. For more info and a comparison chart check out gpscity.com .

New battery

The summer heat here in the south has taken another life I'm saddened to report. Yep, my wet cell battery just couldn't handle the heat.
After much research about Odyssey batteries, AGM, conventional wet cell and Shorai Lithium Iron; I've decided to go withe the guy in the middle the AGM.
Ultimately it was about function and price for me. The AGM is a maintenance free battery and sealed. At a cost of 78.00 from Batteries+. The lithium iron are really light weight, but extremely expensive. The odyssey was really heavy and needed the battery cables re routed and turned on its side to work; and it to was extremely expensive.
Conventional or stock battery always need some tlc now and again when in hot weather and it's temperamental to vibrations (we don't have those in the klr) so that was out.
So since the AGM battery was a direct fit it made my job easier.
