Hi.
I've had my 1030 for a couple of years (well actually several units as I've suffered with Blue Halo twice). I often do long rides with Navigation starting in the early hours so for me long battery life is very important. I have a couple of questions and would appreciate others comparison between the 1030 and the 1030 plus.
1) With the 1030 when loading long routes, quite often the route calculation will fail once or twice before being available to use which can mean 10 - 15 minutes or so into a ride before the route is available to follow with turn by turn navigation enabled. How does the loading speed of long routes compare between 1030 and 1030 plus ? Anyone had any long route recalculations before getting it locked into the device ?
2) I find with the 1030 that charging from low battery levels can be very slow taking hours. Are there any improvements with the 1030 plus that make charging quicker ?
3) I found with the 1030 that I would get roughly 10% battery usage per hour. Anyone got any feedback on the 1030 plus yet as to the approximate hourly consumption ?
Thanks
Phill
