EP2 - Garmin Tactix Pro 7 Solar - Is it worth the money?

[@TinoJack-fi3cv]

Great video, would like to see a similar one on the Instinct 2x Tactical

[@TheFossilChannel]

if i can afford it ill try thanks!

[@bluestilling101]

Very informative. Nice, detailed and straightforward. I thought I was listening to a podcast.

[@TheFossilChannel]

Thank you sir ! Hope it helped out

[@Geo-Tactix]

Awesome video ! Very detailed explanations of everything . Good job ! 💪

[@chrisriley5049]

good video...i still use my Fenix 7 but have switched to my Apple Watch Ultra 2 for a daily driver. Just wanted something different. I agree with you, the solar is NOT needed. Even when you are in the sun doesnt charge it. Just put the stupid thing in battery saver mode if you are going out for an extended time.

[@chrisriley5049]

good hearing your voice too...its been a while mate

[@TheFossilChannel]

Thank you chris its been awhile brother.

[@renedavila5900]

Can you recommend the right settings for the maps I could not get any similar definition compared with what you showed

[@TheFossilChannel]

make sure to check your layering options. i thought at first i could layer ski trails with topo but it doesnt work.

[@motivationmore7025]

fantastic review, thank you very much. What would you say? Should I get a Tactix 7 on Black Friday or should I wait for the Tactix 8 coming out probably in January 2025?

[@TheFossilChannel]

Thats a tough call. The thing with theae watches is that the batteries cant be changed. So the less you spend the better in my opinion.

[@poloide3424]

Batteries can be changed by your own , a lot tutorials about it, it's the same battery than the fenix 7x pro solar 51🎉

[@jasonwolf76]

Good morning everyone, a question: when navigating on a loaded GPX track, is it possible to "lock the map" to follow the direction to follow? , every time we stop , the map continues to rotate slightly, perhaps to update our position.. and it's not very clear where you need to go, where the route to follow is. Thank you

[@TheFossilChannel]

What i do is have north always facing up option for maps. This way the map doesnt rotate.

[@jasonwolf76]

@@TheFossilChannel My friend thank you , you have really help me !! many many thanks .

[@HamRadioN0CKL]

Picked up a used Tactix 7 pro ballistics for $650

[@TheFossilChannel]

Awesome thats a steal! How do you like it?

[@HamRadioN0CKL]

@TheFossilChannel very nice! I had an apple watch ultra but switched back to android and gave that watch to my Son.

[@xelionizer]

I love the watch and have it myself but the kill switch is nothing but a gimmick. If you wanted yopu could easily desolder the the NAND and dumb the binary data from it, and even un-delete data from it the same way cellbrite works with mobile phones in law enforcement. The data is not even encrypted!

[@TheFossilChannel]

Yes its a gimmick. I think at that point in order to stop an enemy from repurposing the tech id destroy it physically too.
