Navigo v2 & Foehn & Hirsch GPS35LS Battery Life

[BeeDee]

I can't find any reference on the web to battery life for this unit. Anybody know what it is as I want to use this on my bicycle as well as in the car?

Thanks

Sorry, I should perhaps have mentioned I haven't bought one yet.

Before buying one of these, can anyone confirm how long, realistically, the battery lasts for either of these units as I would like to use them for cycling as well as in the car? I can't find any info on the net.

Thanks

Apologies for delay,

I think it is commonly accepted the battery life in these units is not great. My unit has always work well whilst plugged into car but never more then 30 mins on its own.

I think there was a navigo version which had better life but I cannot remember which this was. Possibly V1 but i believe this unit is hard to come by.

Many thanks rtr86. I suspected as much. Unfortunately, I need 3 hours+ for my bike rides so it looks like I'll have to fork out for something like a refurbished Garmin Nuvi 200 from Amazon.
