RINO 130 HANDHELD / PORTABLE GPS

 

Very good upgrade from my Garmin GPS 12 which I thought was great. This gives me capabilities I never dreamed of having at a reasonable price. Great for elk and deer camp-especially when an animal is down and help is needed or a vehicle or individual...

Great combination hunting/backpacking tool. Radio communication, when combined with updating of location, is invaluable.

Buttons and toggle switches are small. Also, screen lighting and contrast could be improved.

RINO 130 HANDHELD / PORTABLE GPS

 

Best in class. May be in its' own class. I currently own 3 other GPS devices and have owned 3 more in the past and this is the most useful unit I have ever seen or used.

very intuitive. I was using it within 15 minutes and had it all set up without looking at the setup guide.

At night when the backlight is used for very long the battery life goes down very quickly.

Certified Forester

 

This handheld works well under heavy forest canopy, giving us year round use. We also appreciate the weather channel for updates on Ohio's ever changing forecasts!

Recommend

 

I use this on road trips, hikes, and snow mobiling. Highly recommend!

Very realiable GPS unit. It has a ton of features. Works excellent with other Rino units

If I had to think of one compaint. It would probably be screen size. It is kind of small to look at while driving

RINO 130 HANDHELD / PORTABLE GPS

 

Quad Helex Antenna. Two-way radio communication. Ruggedness and compact.

Would be great if longer distances could be achieved with the two-way radio.
