I love that one! Only problem is I can’t read that tiny azzz thing w/o putting my glasses onI use the Garmin inReach mini. All the same communication features as the $450 one, but smaller form factor and $100 cheaper. It is a little clunky to send messages from the device itself, but it can be done. It is meant to be paired to a cell phone over bluetooth which makes it much easier to operate. I did seven 8+ hours days of off-roading in Baja in May and didn't charge it once. I also carry it with me when backpacking or snowboarding or even traveling out of the country where I'm uncertain about cell phone coverage so I really appreciate the smaller form factor.


Like you, I swear by mine.
