Is The Garmin Etrex Legend Rated For Class 1 Division 2 Areas?
I had to look up what Class 1 Division 2 meant – it seems to be a British standard for ruggedness for use of electronic devices in harsh environments. Based on what I read (heat, fire, chemical contact, etc.) and my experience with the eTrex Legend device, I would hazard a guess that it is NOT a Class 1 Div 2 device.
I would also believe that if it were classified this way, that Garmin would put that in the spec sheet (http://www.garmin.com/products/etrexLege… Googling I found only 1 device that advertises this fact – couldn’t buy it or get a price online though.
