QSTARZ BT-Q1000 GPS Logger + HandyMAP AI Gold

QSTARZ BT-Q1000 LOGGER

One of the more prolific GPS manufacturers has to be Qstarz. The newly released QSTARZ BT-Q1000 Travel Recorder is the most fully featured receiver we have come across. The Qstarz BT-Q1000 features an outstanding endurance of 32 hours whilst also tracking 32 satellites but it also can log over 100,000 way points and has a POI button for immediately recording a point of interest with a push of a button. With built-in Google Earth integration this makes for a powerful combination. The handsome packaging inspires confidence. It has all the salient details itemized on all sides of the box, including a flip-over cover with more features and a glimpse of the BT-Q1000. The Travel Recorder is very small, has a rubberised feel to it and a non-slip bottom. On the left side of the unit you find a sliding switch for the OFF and NAV / LOG positions. The RH side has a mini USB Port. On top we find the LED indicators surrounding the big red POI button. The product is also marketed with EU, US and UK adapters. The unit comes complete with a vehicle charger and cable with a mini USB tip to allow charging from a standard USB Port. Obligatory manual and Software Utilities. In other words, you got everything you need and want. Full marks here. Charging the battery takes about 3 hours and when the green battery light starts flashing you are ready to go.
