Hi,

New here and hoping to get my 9yo son into Geocaching. He seems quite keen at the moment, but knowing what kids this age are like, I don't want to go mad buying an expensive GPS only to find its a 1 hit wonder! Looked at 2nd hand but never sure what you are getting and how its been treated, so decided against that.

Been searching online and come across this:

Looks like it will take manual progamming of co-ordinates, but not knowing the first thing about GPS, wondered if anyone can tell me whether its suitable for Geocaching.

I've found it on offer for £19.99 (usually £50) with free postage if I order before 5pm tomorrow, so prompt replies for or against would be great.

Thanks
