The Garmin GLO™ gives you the best of both worlds by combining GPS/GLONASS receivers with Bluetooth® technology so you can enjoy precise location information on your iPad, iPhone or Android device.
The Garmin GLO™ can receive position information from both the GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations, so unlike GPS-only receivers, it can connect to up to 24 additional satellites. This allows the GLO™ to dial in to satellites around 20 per cent faster and remain connected even at high speeds. In addition, the GLO™ updates its position information 10 times per second - that's up to 10 times as often as the GPS receivers on many mobile devices.
Using Bluetooth technology, the GLO™ pairs wirelessly with your mobile device. Simply place the GLO™ within range of your mobile device and you will receive the location data from the GLO™. It has a battery life of up to 12 hours to maintain your position on long journeys. Charging the GLO™ between uses is possible with the supplied USB cable, or the optional 12/24 volt cigarette lighter adapter.
