    I was reading the DC Rainmaker Blog yesterday about his visit to the Garmin factory. It looks like the Garmin Fenix is the way to go for 50 hours battery life?

    Is the charger the 1800mAh (5hr) or 1150mAH (3hr) version?

    Re: 20 hour runs with a Garmin

    I was out for 6:30 on the DazH race in Buttermere, running Strava on my Android phone. I was not sure if the thing would last my expected 7 hours. I went into settings and "running apps" and killed everything that was not needed, email, google play, facebook, etc, and put the phone into Aeroplane mode. I got around the race and the plot was fine with just over 50% of the battery used. I reckon it could have easily done 12 hours which is way more than I would have expected.

    Mine is the 5 hour version with 2 USB points.

    As for the Garmin Fenix Dom, surely you mean the Ambit 2
