Garmin Alpha 100

Innovative Navigation

The navigator works on the SirfStar III receiver, which significantly increases the quality of positioning. Also, this system reduces the power consumption of the device and the acceleration of the cold start. Let's say right away that the power is supplied only by the included lithium-ion battery, which holds a charge for about 20 hours. Although this is not big, it is still a minus, in case of battery discharge, you can be left without navigation. The device is charged via USB.

Small and reliable

The model is made in a plastic case with rubberized inserts, it is very compact and fits comfortably in the hand. For control, a large high-resolution touch screen is used, which works in all weather conditions, and responds to pressing even when wearing gloves. In severe frost, of course, touch displays do not behave very well, but this model easily withstands small sub-zero temperatures.

The perfect hunter's assistant

The navigator will be primarily appreciated by hunters. The device is synchronized with collars for dogs ТТ15/ТТ15 mini, T5/T5 mini and involves not only control of animals on the hunt, but also their training. The device allows you to connect up to 20 collars at the same time. With it, you can track the movement of your pet in real time within a radius of up to 14 km. The device provides a quick update of information about the movement - every 2.5 seconds it shows the direction, speed of movement, as well as the route traveled. There is a virtual fence function - the dog will not go beyond the pre-set marks. The Alpha 100 also tracks the location of other hunters, which is very important for safety while hunting.

Best friend on a trip

The device includes all the functionality that a good navigator should have, support for GPS and GLONASS systems, an electronic compass, a barometric altimeter, a microSD card slot, and an annual subscription to BirdsEye satellite images. The navigator will appreciate the ability to wirelessly communicate with Oregon, Montana, GPSMAP 64 navigators or other ANT + devices. This function helps to coordinate the actions of the hikers in real time. And, if necessary, ask for help.

You can just go, but it's better to go according to plan

A nice bonus is the ability to plan a hunt with the free BaseCamp programme. Plan your route in advance, prepare waypoints, and view topographic map data on your computer in 2D or 3D. The model also supports a free programme for converting paper maps into digital Custom Maps.

The Alpha 100 GPS Navigator is a truly essential device for any hunter. A huge plus is ergonomics and wide functionality, which makes it a universal navigator for all outdoor enthusiasts.
