Poor life: GPS, finder and accessories

I bought this receiver 14 to pair with my Connecting Android phone that had poor GPS signal caused by my car sunscreen. At first glance, the device exceeded my expectations! However, after 3 years of sporadic use (mostly when travelling) the device can no longer hold a battery charge or block a satellite! I'm not sure why DUAL chose to use the mini USB connector instead of micro. I updated the firmware to the latest version 1.3.4 but no luck. So basically I'm left with a device that neither…

Pros
  • DIMENSIONS - 2.24"W x 2.24"D x 0.75"H. Supports NMEA and Apple protocols

Powered by ForeFlight!

I bought it about 3 weeks ago and finally got the chance to test it on a single intersection. I am a student pilot working to one day get all the licenses to get on with the airlines and I am very impressed with this product. It still works great for its age and I'm using iOS 10.2.1. The accuracy is amazing, up to 5 meters which is about 20 feet. As far as battery life goes, it's perfect, pretty average. This is a small device so don't expect too much. The only downside I had was that it…

Pros
  • ADDITIONAL AREA PROVISION SYSTEM – This highly sensitive system allows your device to lock onto multiple satellites, providing accurate and reliable GPS positions within +/- 2.5m, a top speed of 1,800km/h and a top altitude of 59,000ft .
Cons
  • Almost everything ok

Great unit! suitable for portable GPS devices

Excellent GPS block. I use it with an iPad Pro 9.7" to view a large map of the car while driving. It is much easier to view a large map on an iPad while driving than on a smaller phone screen. The battery lasts a long time. At least 6 -7 hours without a charge I would like the charging port to be Micro USB instead of Mini USB This allows for another charging cable to be carried, the device also turns on as soon as I plug in the charging cable I would prefer you had to turn it on to use it. I…

Pros
  • GPS STATUS TOOL is a free download application that provides accurate GPS coordinates, changes location update rate and works with numerous devices and operating systems such as iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and many more
Cons
  • Nothing here

Impressive: Handheld GPS

I bought the XGPS150A to use with an old iPad that had the Hema Explorer app installed for highway and off-road use. The GPS receiver simply connects to the iPad via Bluetooth. The XGPS150A's companion app worked well enough to know that the GPS was operational, showing satellite strength and battery life. However, I had to restart the app when turning the GPS off and on again before the app would update. The Hema Explorer app has long worked great with GPS. I rode it over 5,000 miles over two…

My Wi-Fi only iPad mini now has GPS! Google Maps. Let us!

Works much better than I expected. I have an old wifi only ipad mini (1st gen) with ios 9.3.5 that i wanted to use for navigation but as you all know wifi only ipads don't have built in gps. After connecting my iPad mini to the Dual XGPS105A via Bluetooth (which was painless, by the way), it prompted me to download a companion app. The app is very helpful. It shows you how many satellites you are connected to, satellite numbers, signal strength, position information, position reliability values

Pros
  • GPS, finder and accessories
Cons
  • So-so

Dual XGPS150A: Portable GPS Units

Dual XGPS150A - Using Dual XGPS150A for almost two months Using this GPS receiver with my iPad 2 since 2011. Since this iPad 2 did not have a built in GPS receiver, After a long search I chose the dual XGPS150A, although it wasn't the cheapest, but because it can be used in conjunction with the SkyPro application, as described in the technical documentation, for receiving 12 GPS satellites and up to 12 GLONASS satellites, this dual XGPS150A seemed to me to be just that. Use the Dual XGPS15A in…

Pros
  • Portable GPS Units
Cons
  • Some difficulties
