Review on Garmin Forerunner 610 Charging Cradle by Justin Castro

Not only is that magnetic charger annoying, it's also proven unreliable. The contacts are spring loaded and on the first two I owned the spring on one of the contacts broke making them unusable. To be honest I have to take some of the blame as I've been known to put it on the charger right after a run and the residual sweat may have corroded the electrodes/spring but what an idiot designed it, to make you sweat in the electrical connections. The same problem was on 405, only worse! Unfortunately I have no other way to charge my $350 watch other than this unreliable "system".
