Costumer Reviews

The Garmin Forerunner 410 is the replacement for the Garmin Forerunner 405 and Garmin Forerunner 405CX and as in this respect is a second generation device. The Forerunner 405 was virtually a fantastic device, tiny enough to be employed as an everyday watch and a completely functional GPS runner's tool, but when the critiques began trickling in it became clear that it had a significant issue, the sleek touch sensitive (iPod like) bezel didn't work too well when it became wet (with rain or sweat). The Forerunner 410 looks and works substantially the similar as the Forerunner 405 but the troublesome bezel is now a lot improved.

The Forerunner 410 is primarily a runner's watch with just sufficient features to make it useful to cyclists it really is not definitely suited for the tri-athlete for several factors. Garmin states that the Forerunner 410 is rated at IPX7, this indicates that it has been tested and located to be water resistant at a depth of a single metre for 30 minutes. The GPS signal does not penetrate water so will not operate anyway and the Heart Rate Monitor will not function in water.

The Forerunner 410 came with no charge at all in the battery, but charging is swift and basic it was completely charged following about two hours. With the GPS enabled the battery will last up to 8 hours this is borne out by experience. One particular improvement more than the earlier Forerunner 405 is that you can now disable the GPS function and this extends battery life to around a week (apparently).

The Forerunner 410 has 3 out there screens to view and each can be configured to display 1,two or 3 of the 35 readily available data fields. 3 of the 35 information fields will require the further foot-pod for cadence data and a additional eight fields will require the optional heart rate monitor. The Foot Pod is beneficial for capturing cadence (steps per minute) and for distance/speed when no GPS signal is on the market (in the gym and on the treadmill). The heart rate monitor strap is worth the investment and supplies a wealth of additional information.

The GPS facility is wonderful, it generally picks up the GPS signal nicely within one particular minute and so far it hasn't lost it. Tracking appears to be rather accurate, commonly inside a few metres of the actual distance run. The elevation calculation can be a small vague (this is not the fault of the watch but a result of how GPS calculates elevation) but even this appears to tally on the Forerunner 410.

1 of the most helpful functions is the Virtual Partner, this enables you to set a target pace for your virtual partner and track progress against him/her on your run. This is a superb function for pacing oneself, particularly in a race when it is so simple and easy to start too easily. It is quick to switch among the Virtual Partner page and the information pages on the watch by just tapping the bezel. I've tried this in the rain and deep into a run with sweaty hands with no challenge. I've even tried it with gloves on and it worked fine. The display can also be locked to stop accidental activation.

The Pc software setup was simplicity itself (I use Windows XP) and the watch automatically downloads the run data as soon as it's within range of the USB antenna (about 3 metres). The GarminConnect internet website is cost-free and offers a especially really good analysis of the information. It will show the route you took, heart-rate, speed, elevation and cadence and will even animate it to show all the readings as you ran - genuinely impressive. There is also some no cost software out there on the internet (Sports Tracks three.) that is compatible with the Garmin 410 and that enables you to analyse the information nonetheless further.

The Garmin 410 is a honestly impressive piece of equipment and now that the bezel troubles seem to have been largely fixed is undoubtedly worth receiving if you're a runner. If you happen to be far more of a Tri-athlete I could be tempted to go for the Garmin Forerunner 310XT as a more suitable device.

I recieved this as a christmas gift, right after dropping a lot of hints...i had my suspicions as to the accuracy and usability of the product but after applying it a number of instances I am delighted with it, and locate it is a genuinely useful help to my education. The bezel is hassle-free to use, the heart rate monitor is comfortable, and the garmin connect software package and education centre that are integrated are leading notch. Also impressive is how the watch transfers your latest run wirelessly to your Computer as soon as you are inside range. I have however to test it in adverse weather conditions, and nor have I utilised it in a race condition, but so far I am incredibly pleased with the performance and choices provided by the item and advise it to any runner.
