[quote=Edchris177]Don't forget to uncheck the "use GPS' box when you are done. Most phones eat batteries with the GPS turned on, my Android will cut the battery life in less than half using GPS.
Also realize that "Max Speed" using a cell phone GPS may be out several MPH. The iteration rate is not as high as dedicated GPS systems,(the higher the rate the greater the battery drain).
We were tucking some short steep runs on the ski hill last year. Some of the guys with "phones" were clocking 90+ kph,(56 mph). That was just not realistic, World Cup downhill racers average around 120-130kph on the faster sections of the course.
If you use a dedicated GPS, there will be a setting to change the iteration rate, the higher you make it the more accurate, at the cost of battery life.[/quote]
