I am still on my first set of AAAs so it gets at least a fair amount of time; lithium's are better especially for cold weather. I have not looked at any specs. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

As for forest - I have had it work well on my wrist driving the truck on 4wd roads under ponderosas. Thick maple leaves may be better or worse? It seems to be more sensitive than older Garmins though. And they seem to have worked out some of the antenna problems. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

And this was meant to be a "concept review" not a gear review, it simply required a piece of hardware for the demonstration. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
