I Might be wrong here, but I seem to recall something about NiMH batteries having a lower voltage, something like 1.3 rather than 1.5 of normal batteries or Lipols. And the Satmap doesn't work well if the voltage isn't high enough.
Do people use NiMHs successfully? |

Could well be true but they appear to be the same rechargeable battery that SatMap recommend and are selling from their own shop. _________________ Garmin Nuvi 2599

That is a good price for Energiser 2500. I have been using their 2650 recently (around £8.50 / 4 pack) and find them ideal for use with my Active 10.
A fully-charged 2500 set would be plenty for a 15 mile day walk in power save mode too. A bargain at that price. |
