GarminCarabiner Clip Accessory, Compatible with Various Garmin Handhelds, (010-12897-01),Black

The clip works fine on my Garmin 64sx. Slides easily on the back of the unit and snaps into place. Some complained that it was hard to remove. I don't find this to be the case. You just lift up slightly on the bottom of the clip and then pull down. The carabiner clip seems pretty robust. I use it to clip to my belt loop when walking. Have not used it yet on my backpack, but don't foresee a problem. While it also has a plastic clip that you can use, I find these tend to break rather easily.My only complain is the price. It should be about half the price for what you get. Better yet should come with the GPS. Garmin is not that customer friendly as they charge extra for a useable map for your GPS, so it is no surprise that the clip is over priced.

Fits perfectly and easily on my Garmin Alpha and gives me a way to hook it to something while still having a belt clip. Gives lots of options for keeping the Alpha off the ground. Feels high quality and is a good value.

Easy to put on and works great.

I've used one of these on my E-Trex 22 for three years leading hikes throughout San Diego County and Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. It clips on a D-ring on my backpack strap. It's always within reach so I can read it without unclipping it. I consider it part of my safety equipment.

Good construction and materials

This is a super value durable clip to secure your GPS from damage or loss of unit. It fits the etrex perfectly and easy to remove. Smart design.

I didn't think I would like having my Garmin flopping around on a strap but it hangs unobtrusively off a belt or pack without being irritating. If i was being picky I would like it to actually be attached inverted so I could simply lift up the unit to look at it. Unfortunately it hangs with the unit "right side up". Basically if I clipped it on a friends backpack in front of me it would be easy to glance at and see where I am in relation to my track or landmarks. But hanging on my belt I either have to lift and twist it around to see it right side up or usually I just un-clip it completely. Not the end of the world and still very happy with the item. Worked great for an 8 miler through some pretty rough terrain.

I am part of a search and rescue K9 team and our team swears by this clip. It is so much more user friendly and reliable then the clip your gps came with.
