Sorry for not being claear. I was talking about Holux GPS receiver used
with PK since that was what Carol was talking about. This is what the
part
of the manual says.
The battery life should be around 10 hours and it takes about 2 hours to
fully charge. Coincidentally, the battery is the same type as the battery
used in many Nokia phones such as the 6620 and 6682. The Holux battery is
3.7 volts and 1000 MAH.

What GPS device are you discussing? I am looking for a GPS solution.

Carol,
Great that it worked for you. When I received my GPS about a month ago,
I
remember reading that the battery used in the receiver is the kind that
is
often used in cellphones. So we can buy it anywhere I suppose. When I
got mine, the battery was not installed so I had to do it myself. It was
easy though. If you need step by step instruction of how to replace the
battery when you come to that point, let me know, I can dig out the
odocumentation for you.

Thanks, Chris. I now have managed to get in but it took rather longer
than
usual to acquire my position. Due to a problem recently with my PK, I
had
to pair from scratch after re-installing software, so that maybe accounts
for the delay. I just didn't expect to wait so long.

Hi Carol,
You can do a test to see if it's the battery or not.
1. remove the battery.
2. connect the receiver to power.
3. try and acquire satellites.
Have you also re paired and activated the receiver lately. perhaps
there's something strange going on just with that and it's not a
hardware battery issue.

Hi all,
I have a Holux GPSlim 35 receiver and think the battery (batteries) are
on
the way out. Although I have charged this again ready for use (after a
few
months of inactivity), although the receiver is recognized by my PK, I
am
unable to acquire satellites. Is this likely to be a battery problem?
If
so, could you please advise if there is one or are there two different
batteries about which I should be concerned and can replace, or do I
have
to
purchase a new unit?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
