The new devices enable an approach, more precise, simple and conscious, to undertake leisure and professional activities with cutting-edge accessories that can ease the way along paths and reach one’s destination, thanks in part to extreme battery life.
GPSMAP 67/67i
An evolution of the historic GPSMAP 60 series introduced in 2004, it raises the technological coefficient of the entire range of devices by integrating multiband support, the chipset designed to receive multiple satellite frequencies, to ensure further precise positioning response. The series offers an immediate and highly intuitive interface through buttons that can be conveniently used even with gloves on. The large 3” color display is perfectly readable even in bright ambient light. In addition, GPSMAP 67i equipped with inReach technology allows users to stay in touch with friends and family, via text message, e-mail and tracklog, even where cell phone service does not provide coverage. But that’s not all: in the event of an emergency, an interactive SOS can be activated that can directly reach Garmin Response, the 24/7 international rescue coordination center. Both models are powered by internal lithium-ion batteries to provide longer life, which provides up to 180 hours in standard receiving mode and up to 840 hours in expedition mode.
