I bought one a while back and recently devoted many hours attempting to get it to track and track back. On day 3 it went to it's final resting place.........the trash. I tracked a nice paved straight trail, set it to track back and when I arrived at my vehicle it was still in position to track back . Arrow had moved ever so slightly. I had made numerous references to videos but when it was all said and done I declared "hopeless." Back to the old reliable compass! I was familiar with the Garmin GPS and had used one in the past. Never again!
Great review. I did stop the video short however. Can I say, get a set of Cache coordinates from the internet. Put them into this device and it will simply point me in the right direction?
You can change the compas arrow back to big arrow in menu in the compas-mode and select the fourth option (I don't know wht it says in English) and then costumize the fields above the compas again.
Hello! Very nice review! Not sure about one thing though. I´m looking forward buying one of these to save track and than geotag pictures taken with a Nikon D7100 which happen not to have a GPS receiver. Lots of posts showing how to load tracks onto the etrex, but is it possible to export a track to a GPX file? Thanks!
I have a Garmin GPS eTrex10 language which was in French rose suddenly in English and French refused to go even by going to Setup - System. How can I fix this?
Friend, this equipment is new and cannot load maps and points saved and routes, what can help me with that case as charge dsatos, in another verccion i have no problem but in this model i cannot
Does this device show things as the crow flies? ex: if i wanted to track how many miles i traveled on a trail which wasnt straight would it track from the point i started to the where i am in a straight line on the map or would it factor in all the zig-zags on the trail and there for be more accurate.
It's the first one I've owned, and don't know too much about them. I'm using for geocaching and it seems to work pretty good here is the link to it in case anyone is interested: amzn.to\17AQJ3z
Okay, so I'm going on a trip and there are a few locations I'd like to go to that I found on google earth. I have the Coordinates of these places, so can I input them and go to them using this device? Thanks a lot
First, nice video, informative, and thank you. Secondly, you Americans have way too much fun! We have idiots like Ledal99 here too, but we dont have nearly as much fun. We usually just lock them away so the tourists dont have to deal with them. Hey Ledal, wanna visit Switzerland?
Geocaching: has info about the cache name and terrain/difficulty but NO hints? Oh man, i thought it has everything to go geocaching. Only with opencaching it downloads all the description, but there aren't many caches on that website.
I need to find my GOLD CLAIMS ... I have numbers on some printed papers... is this GPS only good for finding your car again only if you marked it as a checkpoint.... made for forgetful women at the mall... if I head out to the Mountains and Bush can I find the spot I'm looking for from my computer ?????????????????????????
You have waffled on for 20 minutes and not told me how to set it up to go from point to point. Not interested in finding a hamburger joint, but i might need to get to a point 10 kilometers away through a thick forest????????????????????
"Stop chewing your nails" LMAO And then attacked by an internet commando. Funny as hell these jokers have no life and try to show "Power" by policing what someone else says, only to look like a loser by doing so. God I love UA-cam ! I got your back skingrips !
Thanks buddy. Think ledal99 has an inflated value on their opinion. Typical UA-cam idiot who either wants to police the internet, or is too stupid to recognize a joke. Or, they may need to increase their dosage a tad.....
Ledal- I just wanted to point out (for future reference) the word is "Mind" your own business, not "Mine" your own business. Most intelligent folks will automatically dismiss your point of view when it's obvious that you are uneducated. Unless of course, if you were suggesting that I actually "Mine" my own business and become a diamond digger or treasure hunter, in which case I will have to respectfully decline.

Great review!
Thanks for taking the time ;)

thanks for this video. I need one but how can I get it ? I am from Monrovia, Liberia in Africa.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Seems hard to find a Garmin dealer in Liberia online. You would have to turn to some local electronics or outdoor store.
Thanks for making this.
We learn together. Fun.
Thank you!
In the satellite portion...
Where does the elevation mark?
Not one person whose done a handheld GPS has demonstrated the Where too feature?
Nice review, thanks.
Thanks
That was very helpful, thank you!
Can you view the screen easily in the sun? Can you mark a start point (like your car) so if you're out hiking you can find your car again?
Yep
@@TemaCoolServiceKiribati Now that is one hell of a delayed reaction.🤣
@@henxinggan been busy for the last 8 yrs
hey , i wanted know if i can read well the longitude and latitude values from your devise , do you took this video in Matinkylä in Espoo ?
maija mikkola That's correct :P
I have a Garmin GPS eTrex10 language which was in French rose suddenly in English and French refused to go even by going to Setup - System.
How can I fix this?
Can you use this in your car for directions?
Not really.
Do you know if this gps have área calculation?
GizzMoVest macht einen großen Fall für den eTrex 10/20/30. Schwere Lanyard / Gürtelschlaufe und die Tasten gedrückt werden kann leicht thru the Fall.
@huntersmith64 , His voice is very beautiful, i very like it...so calm and unforged !
Can I use this as a GPS in my car or is this just for land and sea?
It's not really for car use
Can you please tell me if etrex 10 has option to show glide to destination on trip computer page? Thx
did you get a cd to install a Software with the etrex? if i only have the device but without conecting it to a Computer, will it work?
It doesn't come with a CD and it can work without a computer
is it possible to use on a motorbike?
Friend, this equipment is new and cannot load maps and points saved and routes, what can help me with that case as charge dsatos, in another verccion i have no problem but in this model i cannot
can it give you a drawing of the area perimeter
yes, if you make a track of it
a544jh ..
sir plzz my Gps language changed into another language i want to back in English..
plz help me urgent
Sorry i didnt want to watch the whole video, but i just wanted to know it you are able to manually enter UTM coordinates into this?
I think you can, it supports a lot of different coordinate formats.
@a544jh Yep, I'm thinking of becoming a premium member, but maybe in spring - it's not a geocaching season right now ;) Thanks a lot for your replies!
nice
Can it measure the speed on a train???
Does this device show things as the crow flies?
ex: if i wanted to track how many miles i traveled on a trail which wasnt straight would it track from the point i started to the where i am in a straight line on the map or would it factor in all the zig-zags on the trail and there for be more accurate.
It can record a curvy track and show the distance of it. If you navigate to a waypoint it shows the distance "as the crow flies".
Thank you. that was very helpful.
***** The curvy path method is known as 'As the bee flies' :)
If you want to walk in circles it will show you your path as an O all day long.
how's the battery? can you take it on a week long trip?
It should last
IS THAT I MAY HAVE THE COORDINATES OF POINTS
Good review :D Thankyou c:
How to save more than one track in GPS garmin etrex 10.
It's the first one I've owned, and don't know too much about them. I'm using for geocaching and it seems to work pretty good
here is the link to it in case anyone is interested: amzn.to\17AQJ3z
Okay, so I'm going on a trip and there are a few locations I'd like to go to that I found on google earth. I have the Coordinates of these places, so can I input them and go to them using this device? Thanks a lot
Yes
***** Cool. Can they be put in by hand or are they uploaded? Thanks for the answers.
+Camroc37 It can be done both ways
***** Cool, I think I might buy it then.
hi, is the area calculation works?
Yes
Can i track my hike with this device ? Does it show a satellite map ?
You can make your own tracks, but not really get a preloaded map on it.
Thank you for the helpful answer, i really appreciate it (y)
how do you delete a geocache? im getting frustrated. =/
Hello are you able to upload geocaches using linux with this gps?
Moving the GPX files manually with the GPS as a mass storage device should work. I don't think the browser plugins work.
Thanks. Would you still recommend this gps or would you choose another?
It's an OK device, but it doesn't have a map, which is kind of limiting
First, nice video, informative, and thank you.
Secondly, you Americans have way too much fun! We have idiots like Ledal99 here too, but we dont have nearly as much fun. We usually just lock them away so the tourists dont have to deal with them.
Hey Ledal, wanna visit Switzerland?

Um welche Sprache handelt es sich bei Dir?
can you add a heart rate monitor
no
how to get longitude and latitude values using this devise , can you please respond me asap
Ratnakar Vanapalli You go to the satellites page, or you can add the field to the compass, map or trip computer.
It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again.
how many way points can you store
+LEE HERR At least 1000 I think
+LEE HERR 2000
wet iphones don't work very well...then there is the issue as to which app you use
No it don't I checked
I can't see any video
are you russain
Have you ever heard about camera focusing ?
Are you Kimi Räikkönen.....,
merci de mettre vos vidéo en langue française

isnt an iphone more practical?
I guess it can be if you don't risk dropping it on the ground or in water/snow etc.
I need to find my GOLD CLAIMS ... I have numbers on some printed papers... is this GPS only good for finding your car again only if you marked it as a checkpoint.... made for forgetful women at the mall... if I head out to the Mountains and Bush can I find the spot I'm looking for from my computer ?????????????????????????
is TracBack possible?
I think it is.
You have waffled on for 20 minutes and not told me how to set it up to go from point to point. Not interested in finding a hamburger joint, but i might need to get to a point 10 kilometers away through a thick forest????????????????????
Poshishion!

what about the accuracy? how much meter of accuracy ?
Usually it reports 3 meters with good signal
