A good "first GPS" for a hiker, boater, or novice geocacher

byhairymon Mar 8, 2006
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Battery life, satellite reception, WAAS accuracy, price, economical in general
Cons Small screen, poor documentation, not very intuitive for an entry-level GPS
Recommended it? Yes

I have been using a Whistler Galileo for both geocaching and in my car (though it is a handheld, it is really somewhat more car-oriented). The screen broke, and the extended warranty company is deciding whether to replace it vs. reimbursing me what I paid for it (since it's a discontinued model),... Read full review »

Not useful for GPS, but makes a good battery tester.

Pros It is useful as a battery tester.
Cons It is not useful as a GPS device.
Recommended it? No

I was thrilled when I was given a GPS unit by my employer, rewarding me for years of service. My primary use would be for hiking... however, I've been unable to use it at all.

It always takes at least 15 minutes, and usually closer to a half hour, to acquire position. This while standing... Read full review »

Pros Fast satellite acquisition 60sec. Long battery life. Inexpensive. Great 2nd unit or for...
Cons Limited mapping ability. No uploadable mapping.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this unit at a local hardware store as a thanksgiving day sale blowout as a backup GPS. I was not expecting much but was very pleased with the performance at a price that was just a little more than the price for other GPSs' car adapters. Very quick access time to satellite data. It had... Read full review »

Good deal for the cost

Pros Low Cost, Records a large number of waypoints & trails, good battery life.
Cons No computer interface cable available. Small screen size.
Recommended it? Yes

This is my first gps unit, and it seems to work very well. I had problems with the first unit I had, but the replacement unit has been fine. It keeps a good lock even under heavy tree cover, and I have used it in the car with a vent mounted cell phone holder, which works well most of the time.

Lowrance i finder go

bymisinformed Aug 7, 2008
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Very good price
Cons Wont last very long it has MAJOR FAULTS!
Recommended it? No

This was the first Lowrance I have bought. The thing has frozen on the first screen. I have tried all the recommended fixes none work. It is not worth the money. Upon checking other web sites I find this is a common problem with this unit.

Bang on the money

bymikeroch Apr 21, 2007
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Cheap, bright, tough, sensitive, excellent battery life, displays location info easily.
Cons Fragile / easily-lost battery cover. Occasionally needs a reset to whip it back into line.
Recommended it? Yes

Cheapest decently specified GPS available in the UK so absolutely the Best Bang for your Buck available. Simply packaged with no fancy owner manual to hike the overall price (it's on CDR), it achieved a fix from cold in about a minute straight out of the box having crossed 'the pond' from the US...

Buy this...and get lost!

Pros A lot for your money (when it works).
Cons Freeze up after a minute or so. Zero customer service
Recommended it? No

Needing a water resistant low cost, light weight GPS for a long distance trekking trip, the iFinderGo seemed to give the more bang for the buck.
Out of the box, it was "stuck" in factory testing mode. Calls and emails to customer service were not returned.
A trip back to the store... Read full review »

I like my iFinderGo

byBDuke Nov 25, 2005
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Good price,lots of features,easy to learn, 92 page operating guide free on line.
Cons Maybe a little too compact.
Recommended it? Yes

Lowrance's iFinderGo(16MB) is a stripped down version of their iFinder line of handheld GPS receivers. It lacks the ability to communicate with other electronics or to save, read and store data on MMCs. It lacks an external antenna. However,it has virtually all the other features. I learned this...
