A full charge on a Garmin GPS unit will last longer than you are able to pedal in a day. If you are doing a multi-day trip then all you need to do is carry a portable charge pack.

If his fear applies equally to my wireless bike computer, I’m in big trouble.Wonder if 10G is twice as dangerous than 5G or whether it’s like the Richter Scale.

A friend who has the 1040 Solar told me that it doesn't really add much runtime. Some, sure...But not enough to make it worth the extra $150 unless you really need max runtime.

The embolden. Uh, no, no where near. I've carried a battery stick, plugged into the 800, on all my long rides. As they say on the long distance forum, a century is not a long ride. Those little top tube bags work great for that.
