Garmin GPSMAP® 62s and microSDHC?


Recommended Posts

I need a new microSDHC card and I just read that it's pointless to get a card larger than 4GB because of the way the GPS is setup. I just want a small card just for the track log. Even 1GB is already overkill. However, I can't find a 1GB for cheap. The cheapest card that I have found is a 4GB microSDHC. It's $5.99 at a local retailer of mine. However, I don't know if the Garmin 62S will work with microSDHC cards. I've never tried it before and I don't want to waste $6 for no reason.

 

Here's the card: http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX36471

 

Will it work?

That's the card I'm using in my older 60CSx model. Works like a charm. I'm impressed at how cheap it's gotten. Go ahead and splurge.

 

Some day you might find that extra space useful for holding maps. I can't live without my maps now; I have all sorts in my unit.

 

I have the 62S though! I'm just worried that it won't work and I'm stuck with a $6 card that won't be of much use to me!
