zeal Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Anyone run a powertap as a power source for Garmin edge 705? If not anyone running a garmin edge 705 with any power meters?
Minion Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I tend to use the built in battery as the power source for my Edge. I've had no problems running a PT Elite+ and SL2.4+ with my Edge. I get the same readings as I got from a PT CPU. The Edge used to give some dodgy (very noisy) speed reading when I used it on the IDT but that was fixed with the 2.9 firmware update. I've never really used the routing features on my 705 (and when I did, they didn't work very well) so, if my 705 were to disappear today, I'd probably replace it with an Edge 500 or see what the PT Joule is like.
zeal Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 I want to see how accurate my tacx fortius power readings are when it comes to giving me wattage output. So need to just see if someone has a power meter that will work with my garmin sobthat I can compare the readings and set accordingly.
