Old technology but still reliable

These are a little old, but very reliable. I use mine to geocache, jeep trailing, & hiking. Memory is small so only load the maps you need. Given it's memory limitations & inability to d/l direct geocache points I'm still pretty happy.Read full review

Rugged, reliable, accurate, and recommended

Some people consider this product to be obsolete and limited in features. I have used similar products and can attest that it is as useful today as when it was new. Newer products have more features, better looking maps, but the performance is still about the same as this Venture HC first offered new thirteen years ago. And, at about $50, it's a deal.

I use these products for training people in wilderness navigation. Personally, I use them for my own canoe trips in Northern Minnesota and Canada. They are well made, reliable, reasonably easy on batteries, and quite durable.

I highly recommend this product to anyone with a similar need.Read full review

as expected

I've had one of these before and wanted another. Out of production so I was glad to find it on ebay. Accurate and reliable, cost effective if you don't need a lot of advanced features. The only problem is a weak instruction manual, get somebody to show you how to use it.Read full review

useful GPS

I use this model as a bicycle computer. It is nice in that I can download maps that are detailed for the areas that I bike ride and the statistics that I am interested in.

etrex venture hc

This unit was a replacement for one I had a number of years and lost. I use this unit for marking fishing spots and it is dead on every time. couldn't ask for a better unit. very user friendly. only thing is I use google earth for marking waypoints and they have to be converted to kml before converting to gpx to load in garmin etrex. if it would load kml straight from google earth it would be easier. no a complaint just wishing.Read full review

BIKE GUIDANCE SYSTEM

The unit works great.
It mounts right on my handle bars.
This time I will secure it better.
The cost was very good for a unit of this type.
I get lost allot.

Easy and accurate!

So far for the very short time I’ve had it. It’s been doing as designed. Also user friendly so far as well!

Great inexpensive handheld GPS

Sometimes you want greater accuracy than your phone can provide. This is a great and inexpensive GPS unit. Three family members have one and they all love it! We use them for Geocahing.

Can take a beating

I use these to track my work crew in the forest and to locate project boundaries. Very easy to use, and to teach others.
