[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Etrex Legend hcx - still the best in price range

[Andy Robinson]

There are some resources on the net that tell you how to refurbish an etrex when the rubber has come off. Haven't tried it myself but have a unit that will need doing soon. Basically involves a cleaner and some double sided tape.
Does the unit power up ok if you push the switch behind the rubber band, if so a refurb should work if Garmin are not forthcoming?

Cheers
Andy

Hi everyone
My trusty Legend hcx has just stopped working - Rubber protection band loose and sticky (usual etrex problem) and not powering up. I'm contacting Garmin for repair - they've been good in the past !

But if I need to replace it what would you recommend ?
How does the Etrex 30 perform ?

Thanks
