Title: RNS510
Post by: 06Hirons on June 05, 2013, 09:35:22 am

Good Morning all,

Im going to be in the market for an RNS510 in the next couple of days, but wanted to get some advice from those who have purchased recently.

I have looked on ebay, but seems to be a mine field. I am now sure I want at least a Version C with LED screen. However, there seems to many offerings
of software & Hardware with some offering benefits of no battery drain despite having an older gateway?

I have contacted the forum go too Eddie, but unfotunatley he has no stock. Eddie will hopefully be fitting it for me with a Bluetooh phone kit, so can anyone
recommend me a reliable seller? Any other advice? What should I be paying?

I will put up a wanted thread up shortly, but want to know whats best before I rush into anything.

Thanks in advance.

Almost 100% sure you will need a new gateway

Not if he also has a Polar FIS advanced installed as well...   :wink:

This seems to be the best deal for a LED RNS510 on ebay at the moment, any thoughts?

Thanks
