The Garmin Swivel Belt Clip is better because the attachment point is higher, which allows the GPS to have a lower center of gravity and it hangs better from a strap that way.

This belt clip works great with the standard battery pack

Just like the map chip that should come with the unit; this belt clip makes the unit "usable" in the real world

Love this belt clip, very sturdy.
