I have a bluetooth Holux 230, using it with ChartCase. Ebay for about $80.
Works well and battery life is more than 6 hours. 2 x 3 hour flights. It may
last longer than that.

That being said, I would buy their other model (don't remember the number) that
uses cell phone batteries because then I could carry a charged spare.

When I bought, I thought an external antenna would be important. I have tried
the Holux with its internal antenna, with an external Garmin antenna mounted on
top of the airplane, and with my Garmin 195 suction cup antenna. No difference
in sensitivity. I mount the Holux to the windshield on a little home-made
suction cup bracket and use the internal antenna.

I saw no reason to pay up for the Garmin name and still do not. I compared this
unit to my Garmin 195 (before I sold it) and saw no difference in terms of
sensitivity.

Hello!

The new version 3.0 of Seattle Avionics's Voyager just came out, and
it has a nice moving map. I want to start using it on my laptop, but
need to buy a GPS, first. SA recommends the Pharos GPS360, but I
always thought the Garmin GPS 10 may be the better option. Does
anyone have experience with any of these?
