OK...bought a Garmin Drive 51 for the car but sent it back as the battery was not holding a charge ( even when switched off ) for two weeks. So, got the replacement two weeks ago and charged it up ( and downloaded all maps etc )...but came to use it today ( switched off for two weeks ) and the battery was showing in the red !
My Garmin 390LM stays charged forever in comparison !!
Just wondering if I am over reacting to a battery life before I send it back again
Also, when I went to use it and selected 'address' so I could put in a new postcode.. just got the display saying "Map data is not available" WTF ! It can show me the way home and also displays a map when I select maps etc.
Is this one goosed as well?
