yeah... it's installed correctly... there's only really one way to put it in anyway. Also I can see that it's making contact as there's slight marks on the actual metal battery connections.
I also updated the garmin via the garmin application that they supply (downloaded version) and each time I turn it on... it validates the update. :S Something just feels a bit off with it. Will give them a call tomorrow and see what they say. Don't really have the time to be running around like a lunatic.
Update - Turns out it was faulty. Ended up going to another gooutdoors store and this time I took the printed garmin details from the navi-technology.co.uk site. So I ended up getting a fully working garmin with full GB maps for £269.11. The last Gooutdoors didn't accept the deal from Navi as they thought it was funky, but print it off and bam. Alls good
Now how do I work the blummin thing lol.
Thanks AlwynMike
Not a problem
You have to work the system!!
I just checked my battery, it will fit in 4 different ways - one one of which is the correct way!
Up to now, it's been on full brightness for 7 hours and still lots of life left.
After using Viewranger, the Garmin BaseCamp is a nightmare to use for a simpleton like me.
Also, recorded tracks seem to want to route themselves via a road (still set as a Track), so a 47 mile ride was logged at nearly 230 miles! So I can't use it to make a route - it's quicker for me to copy it and make it up from scratch
