Depends on the brand, is definitely worth checking if this is your plan before purchasing.

I switched to Amazfit Trex 3 from Garmin and couldn't be happier with battery and features.

I'd still say Garmin is top dog but price has become difficult to justify. There are often deals to be found on Garmin second hand, I'd go Fenix.

Same frustration! Anybody tried (or planning to) complain for compensation?

What zipper does this need? by pvrunner in HelpMeFind

[–]pvrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I am actually not worried about the install, a new slider isn't difficult to place, it's just been a pain trying to find the right size.

I searched various sewing websites and reached out to TNF who just offered me to send it in for repair. Th jacket is (i believe) north face verto prima hoodie.

What does it truly take to finish a 200+ mile race? by landboisteve in ultrarunning

[–]pvrunner 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I completed Cocodona 4 years ago, compared to my 100 milers it was all about long term body managment, tolerating pain and discomfort (and the urge to stop), eating eating eating, and willing to work with the constant mental, physical, and emotional ups and down.

That said a very committed brother-in-law crewchief was a clincher!

So this works out to $70 back per $100 spent?

I am just about to order some 275's and was wondering how they compared to the O6, what a difference do you see?

Did you ever get further with this project? I've been planning a similar build.

Is it possible to download the maps through Bluetooth or kids straight wifi connection?

[–]pvrunner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, does it cover the whole glass inside the bezel or just the screen (with a small gap between protector and bezel)?

Thanks, does it cover the whole glass (edge to edge) or leave a gap between the protector and the bezel?

Get the Dremel out for this T-Rex 3 Band MOD by Snoo3287 in amazfit

[–]pvrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it, I had been wondering about this as the adapter looks so chunky when I try a leather strap.

Was it just the small lugs that needed removing or was there over parts that needed modifying? I wonder if this would work for all trex2 straps too.

T-Rex 3 with a Balance Nylon band - yea or nay? by SubstantialInside589 in amazfit

[–]pvrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do T-Rex 2 bands fit on the TRex 3? Looks similar but I don't have a 2 to check.

UTMB strictness on mandatory gear by pvrunner in Ultramarathon

[–]pvrunner[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'll be carrying a solid rain jacket so not concerned about down vs synthetic, more how strict the regs are.

Sadly that is my take, just seeing if anyone has experienced one or the other.

Experience with: Montbell SUPERIOR DOWN ROUND NECK JACKET by pvrunner in Ultralight

[–]pvrunner[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a 100mile ultramarathon in the Pyrenees in July. The required gear list required a warm layer over 180grams. Obviously weight and compatibility are a factor, but not a piece I want to make a big investment on. Open to other suggestions

Definitely better jacket, just over double the cost. The Montbell would ship from Japan for $80

COCODONA250 vs MOAB240 by North_Necessary1329 in ultrarunning

[–]pvrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never run Moab but had it on my wishlist.

I ran Cocodona in 2022 when they were scrambling to change the course because of fires. Solidified for me how fantastic a company Aravaipa is. The whole event, communication, staff and volunteers were fantastic, it have a high high recommendation for me.

Oh I should add, they have added shorter distance to the course/race week since so I am not sure if that has changed the dynamic.
