Garmin Edge 1040 Solar Cykeldator
Fördelar och nackdelar
av våra specialister
Garmin Edge 1040 Solar utmärker sig med extrem batteritid, särskilt på soliga turer och i sparläge. Den stora färgpekskärmen och den exakta multi-band GPS gör navigation och träning enkel och pålitlig. Gränssnittet är förbättrat och enheten reagerar snabbt. Soluppladdningen är dock beroende av solljus, så du får mindre nytta vid moln eller skugga. Priset är betydligt högre än standardversionen och den stora storleken tar mycket plats på styret. För entusiastiska cyklister är detta en toppmodell, men för vanliga användare kan de många funktionerna vara överväldigande.

This was an upgrade from my Garmin 520. Wow! the battery life is outstanding, on a 5 hr ride the solar charging meant the battery only dropped 9% . It also brings many other features too. Yes an expensive piece of kit, but well worth the money.

The array of features, combined with the increase in battery life provided by the solar charging, makes the Edge 1040 Solar a delightful rarity: a product that represents a genuine step change rather than an incremental improvement. However, this big leap forward comes at a hefty price.

As the first head unit ever to include solar recharging, the Garmin Edge 1040 Solar is an excellent option for multi-day epics or simply guaranteeing you’ll rarely run out of juice. It's also a welcome upgrade to the brand’s previous flagship model, the Edge 1030 Plus.

Hi, I bought this the battery life is fantastic. I've given it to my partner and we also got a 1050 as I was struggling to see the navigation screen without my glasses when cycling ( my fault i need to buy prescription saftey glasses) anyway both are fantastic the 1040 solar far superior to the 1050 but the bright screen on the 1050 I like and it's simple to work.
