Imagine how big the 1040 would be with Inreach electronics inside and the sat antenna.....would be nice but won't happen IMO.
The weight of electronics really adds up. Phone, 1030 Garmin, Inreach, Powerbank, charger, cables, etc. Could well be 2 pounds.
Thinking out loud.....why do I need a phone and a Garmin on something like PBP? Each pound costs me 6 minutes in climbing on PBP, so, if I can dump 5 pounds, I have 30 minutes more putzing and faffing time. Seems to me I should ditch the phone
