Not very helpful is the manual that comes with the product. There might be a combination of information you desire displayed on the screen, but you will simply have to play with it. Once the unit has been in the garage all night, it takes about two blocks for a GPS reading to be updated and the mph and direction displayed.

My wiring was able to be hidden under the driver's side of the dash because I located it on the top of the My dash speedo and the speedometer function agree up to about 45 mph, then the truck speedo shows about 3 mph more than my dash For this to be fixed, I will have to mess with the settings. My intention was to use this unit mainly for locating points on my new Honda Ridgeline since it did not come with a compass. that arrives with it is four feet too short to sit flush within the trim of your car, so you have no choice but to buy a new wire if you wish to make the installation less conspicuous and less shoddy. If a normal mini USB cable is plugged into any charger, even an AC/DC converter, it will not work correctly. There is also the issue that this device requires a dedicated 12 volt charging system. I should mention that even with cruise control, I experience dips between 85 and 95 miles per hour Whenever I reach 90 it beeps and beeps and beeps and beeps, trying to get my attention. Near me, speed limits are 75 mph, but I cruise or pass at 88 pretty much all the time. First on the list is that there is a warning that goes off immediately when 88 mph is reached and cannot be changed or turned off. In addition to the limitations mentioned in the title, there are a couple other fairly irritating features, but if these are not a concern for you, it's a logical choice as far as cost/performance ratio is concerned. As we drove through the same area at different times, there was a high degree of variation in both accuracy and precision. Among all the features, the altitude feature was by far the least useful. The accuracy of all features will noticeably degrade below 3 until you climb back up. In all of my travels up and down the east coast, through Texas, half of the Midwest, and even as far west as Colorado, I only had very rarely less than two GPS satellites available on the map. Invest in a good compass instead of a cheap liquid filled one.ģ out of 5 is the best rating I can give this product. This compass is one of the best I have ever used. In addition, I would recommend using Velcro to attach it to your dash. There's a light sensor on the back, so I assume it's not only for when it's daytime, but also when it's nighttime.


In my opinion, it has done an excellent job of illuminating the scene so far. 3) Since it is a GPS unit, it gives extremely accurate MPH (or KPH if you would my Winter Tires were installed on my 2004 Altima now, the Pyle unit reported that I was traveling 72 MPH rather than 70 MPH as reported by my vehicle speedometer. selecting the display of the compass, the app displays eight directions similar to that of my $200 auto-pointing device The mirrors have a compass window so they can be dimmed Pyle should provide a description that tells us what directions are North, Northeast, East, Southeast, Southeast. It is because of the COMPASS functionality that I bought it.
