Review on Protect and Transport Your Garmin eTrex with this Durable Carrying Case by Monica Nixon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great little case for the eTrax Vista HCx

I've noticed a few negative reviews on this case, centered on the case being too deep for the Vista, which obscures several control buttons on the GPS itself make it difficult to use the device in a suitcase. I have to say that either this mentioned issue has been fixed or the reviewers have commented on the wrong case. The Vista HCx eTrax I bought is perfect for this. I really like the D-ring on the back of the case. This allows you to attach the GPS to a gear loop on your backpack or other convenient location. I would give this case 5 stars if I didn't really trust the strap hook that came with the case. This hasn't happened to me yet, but I'm concerned that the GPS can slip off my belt unnoticed and get lost if the securing means for attachment are not used. In general, the design of the case makes a reliable impression. The case should offer the eTrax reasonable protection unless it is abused and hit beyond what would be expected in normal use, which does not include throwing it around and bringing a dog in or dunking it in a river to see how many times you can do it before it fails. you have the idea In any case, a great product. Costs money.

Pros
  • GPS System Accessory
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
