Hello! Newbie here - I just started geocaching with my son and purchased an eXplorist GC (my first GPS). So far I have been pretty content with the convenience of paperless caching but was wondering how the battery life compares to other GPSs. I seem to be chowing through batteries like a kid eating candy on halloween. I ended up having to make an emergency pit stop at a gas station for new batteries over the weekend and burned half way through them with the GPS turned on for about 1.5 hrs. Granted they *were* cheap HD Alkaline but somehow I expected just a little better performance.
Thanks in advance for your input!
