Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Garmin Carrying Case for Rino Series (010-10117-02)
Customer Review: Not bad, but wrong case
Summary: 4 Stars
The product description states "Rino Series". But it is not intended for the Rino 520/530. To close the case you have to slightly bend the radio antenna (not recommended).
Otherwise it is a nice case. One side unzips more than half way allowing easy access to insert/remove the unit. It is not form fitting, so it would work well with anything that fits its demensions. I measure it as 7x3x1.5 Inches. The belt loop would fit a 2.5 inch belt, and is set more towards the middle than the top.
Padding: The other reviews seemed mixed. The padding is certainly think and soft enough to prevent scrapes and scratches from casual contact and dropping. But it certainly would not dampen the shock from a fall, nor prevent cracking from a severe impact.
It's doesn't work for my unit, but it is a nice enough general purpose case that I will keep it anyway.
Customer Review: Great belt Case ... for iPhone as well!
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great little belt case for the Garmin rino series or GPSmap series. Size is 18x8x4 cm, so rather long, to accommodate the GPS detection "rino" extension. The case has a wraparound zipper that goes around the top. This is very handy for hiking where signals are weak, eg in forests, namely, I just leave the case partially unzipped and the rino detector sticks out of the case, pointing skyward, with the case attached to the belt. I have another common use for a second copy of this case, namely to carry my iPhone when it is attached to a battery extender such as the Kensington. i then get battery extension and belt carrying ability at the same time for the iPhone, using a Garmin belt case. My only reservation is that the case is not padded all that well if you really want to use it to protect an electronic device from damage.Customer Review: A good protection for your handheld GPS as the only or extra case
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this case to go along with an eTrex GPS. It has plenty of room for the GPS and the "quick reference card," and I can even wedge the car charger in the case if I take my time. For added protection on a snowmobile or ATV etc. it seems great. I bought a Gilsson case which totally encloses the GPS in neoprene and clear plastic over the buttons and screen. I would recommend that if you are only going to buy one case for outdoor use. If your using the eTrex in your car or for walking or for added protection (I don't care to beat on $250 technological equipment...) I think the couple extra bucks for some extra protection or a light duty or spare bag is well spent. If it was a hair larger it would've been perfect to put the car adapter in with the neoprene case, but I didn't design it =)Customer Review: I use it with the Garmin GPS-MAP 60CSx
Summary: 4 Stars
I have bought this carrier case for use with the Garmin GPS-MAP 60CSx.
It offers good padding & protection for the Garmin unit, but note that it is primarily a travel case. I use it to protect the unit from scratches and dents when it is in a bag full of other gadgets. You cannot see the screen or access the buttons when the Garmin is packed away.
If I'm being picky, the case is perhaps a little long & loose for the 60CSx, but then I'm sure it was built to fit any of the other Garmin units which might be slightly larger.
Exact Case Size = 18cm x 8cm x 4cm (Outer Dimensions)
Customer Review: Adequate for the job
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this case for my Garmin 60csx and it is working fairly well. For other 60c users here's some thoughts:
1. It is a bit roomy.
2. The thickness of the combined nylon exterior and felt interior is somewhat thin to offer any significant protection in a drop.
3. It is roomy and can probably hold a bit more than just the gps unit...perhaps the cigarette adaptor.
Overall I gave it a four stars, because I was expecting thicker protection.
