Digital camera reviews of Garmin eTrex Carrying Case
Digital camera Review: Durable and comfortable
Summary: 5 Stars
If you purchase an eTrex, make sure to get this carry case with it. It protects your GPS from scratches and it adds a belt strap. When hiking, or walking the belt strap is very useful.I have not noticed any signal degradation when using the carry case. The Yellow eTrex still locks on and maintains its lock on the satellites with ease.
Digital camera Review: Essential for the etrex
Summary: 5 Stars
This item prevents the etrex display from being scratched up. Works great for that purpose.Digital camera Review: Excellent Case

I recently ordered this along with my new Garmin eTrex Venture CX. It was an excellent purchase. It clips nicely on my pockets, backpack, and it fits nicely on "curtains" of commercial airliners (most airlines allow you to use GPS receivers once you reach cruising altitude). I can't imagine using my GPS without this case.
My only complaint is that it's hard to see the screen without the back light on in some glare situations.

I've had the E-Trex Legend for several years and needed to use it on a snowmobile without cobbling something hideous together with which to mount it. I'd originally wanted to mount it on the sled, but found the best place was slipped onto the strap for the goggles. The unit is still light enough to be forgotten on the helmet and it stayed put through some rather spirited rides. Tracking was fine. You can still access all the controls and the flap seems transparent to the signal needed to maintain contact with the satellites. It was used in some moderately wooded areas and suffered no apparent problems in keeping the track going. Should the unit fall, the extra material should offer additional protection.
Well worth the cost and perfectly suited to the snowmobiling venue. I also purchased the handlebar mount and will use it while four-wheeling after the snows melt, though the same helmet mount might be the ticket, once again. I'm sure it's subjected to less shock when on the headband for the goggles than if mounted on the handlebars, even with the rubber cushions.
Digital camera Review: Fantastic accessory
Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried 5-6 different GPS models over the years, and the Garmin Etrex series is the most impressive. They are simple, rugged, and deadly accurate.
I personally do not like a lanyard, so I started to look for a case for my Etrex basic that allowed me to comfortably carry it on my belt.
This case not only gives me the additional belt clip that I was looking for, but it also gives you even greater protection for your GPS.
This is a fantastic product and well worth the price.
