    Bad Elf 2300 Bluetooth GPS+GLONASS Receiver and Data Logger with Barometric Altimeter

    • A bigger problem is that the user manual is tiny and does not cover any of the details about what the various LCD screens mean, or (as I'm sure you could guess) any of the little details I've been discussing about how to use the device, its limitations, etc.
    • It should have been a firmware upgrade for 2200 and not a $100 premium and a flaky device
    • Initially I could not connect and see the saved track logs, and I was thinking I had a faulty device.
    • It's a potentially nifty device hobbled by a large number of problems.
    • The device is power-efficient, and plugging it in overnight, every day or two, has been sufficient for me.
    • (They can't do a fast start using their last location if they're way off, and need a minute or so to get a more complete set of GPS ephemeris data.)All in all, I find these devices to be very useful and relatively easy to use.
    • Bad Elf 2300 seems like a very good GPS device.
    • One expects a $190 device to be a little more accurate than the cheap GPS antenna that's built into an Android device.
    • It's a potentially nifty device hobbled by a large number of problems.
    • If you have a friend/spouse with a recent enough iOS device, you can use the app to do some cool configuring.
    • After I unboxed the new unit and toggled through the onscreen menus, I was initially skeptical of any additional value regarding the new device
    • I do love this device and do highly recommend it.
    • I got lazy and let tracks accumulate -- because without iOS, there is no way to clear the device.
    • First, the device is inexplicably horrible
    • This gps is replacing a direct connect bad elf device that could not get strong signals.
    • I have to admit, this device is amazing.
    • EXCELLENT GPS device
    • It has met all of my expectations and supports several Bluetooth devices at once
    • I find if I close all background applications, shut off the iPhone (or iPad), shut down the Bad Elf device, then turn on the iPhone then the Bad Elf device I can get a good connection that will last.
    • It does the job and does it well without having to carry another bulky device.
    • On our latest/greatest device, a Nexus 7, I tried multiple times and never got pairing.
    • Every electronic device should work this well out of the box.
    • This is by far the best Bluetooth GPS device I have seen
    • I plan to use this on commercial flights (cruise altitude - 10,000 MSL) that approve GPS devices (most airlines do - check via Google) and to follow the route of flight on my iPad.
