Many of them have an internal battery, however, and when this goes dead, they don't work. George Patterson Some people think they hear a call to the priesthood when what they really hear is a tiny voice whispering "It's indoor work with no heavy lifting". That is true, my Flybuddy quit working and I called Applo/Garmin/UPS to see how much it would be to fix it and they said $250.00 just to look at it and replace the batteries. I opened it up myself and found the internal batteries. (there are two in the Flybuddy) I got the numbers of the batteries and then went on the internet and found the same batteries for about $8.00. It was a very simple matter to un-solder the old batteries and solder in the new batteries. Now my Flybuddy GPS works as good as it did new. Jerry |
