Garmin 405 battery life
I've had my Garmin since April 2010 and it was working fine. In fact, Jerry posted a thread over the summer about checking your Garmin's battery life, and mine lasted over 13 hours turned on. Now, however, it's a completely different story, and of course my marathon is in 3 weeks!
My battery goes from 100% to 0% in under 5 minutes. Not great for tracking anything. Is 18 months the limit of Garmin 405 battery life?
