Garmin 396 battery question
I bought a 396 at Osh this summer and the battery never shows more
than half charge on the meter. However, if I just let it run, it runs to its full time, so apparently the internal meter needs to be reset. Anybody know how to do that? Yep, I did read the manual, couldn't find anything.

Might try Garmin support. They are usually helpful.

Garmin 396 battery question
I found that I deep cycle the battery by running the gps until it
dies, then recharge, each recharge is a little better. After 3 cycles, it's now up to about 95%. It also helped to download new firmware from garmin.
