Kieren Mar 2021 11:49pm, 12 Mar 2021 4,138 posts	0 Kieren My 305 still works. Holds charge for about 2 hours and syncs to Garmin. I'm probably going to send it to rerun to see if they can find a home for it
Hanneke Mar 2021 11:52pm, 12 Mar 2021 71,302 posts	0 Hanneke I was surprised! It was set to cycling and I remember when I was forced to go from running to cycling in 2009 I used the 301 strapped around pipe lagging onto my handlebars... It hasn't been used since that year I reckon, as I had to buy a cycling computer for racing... and hasn't been charged since either. Not sure how long it holds a charge for, I only went out for less than half an hour's run/walk but it is a start...
