Can you use this Garmin as a speedometer?

YES, you CAN use the Garmin StreetPilot 2720 as a speedometer. I use it all the time to check speedometer calibration in my vehicles. However the numbers are about 3/4 inch high when it is in the Map mode.It also gives you the number of miles remaining to your destination as well as Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA). If you reset it when you start your trip, you can also use its Trip-odometer feature to determine fuel economy.

no the 2720 does not show speed. i now use a 50lm which shows both the speed limit and your speed. hope this helps you.

Yes you can and there are many ways to accomplish it... I have four GPS units. One is in my Van, the GPSMAP for geocashing and kayaking and I have for my bicycle. All Garmin and out of all of them my favorite one is the 62St. I have though about selling it several times because I do not kayak anymore and it is really bulky for the bicycle but because it is very good when it comes to receiving from satellites I hold on to it.... Very accurate and built really solid......

This device will work as a speedometer anywhere in the world. It can act as a directional compass and also a altimeter. It has a mode to log your travel route, speed and time for later download to your computer. It is NOT a maping display type of gps that many put in their car for directions.

No. The Garmin Swim doesn't have any GPS function (you'd need to use the 310xt or 910xt version for open water swimming). Instead with the Swim you have to tell it what length of pool you are in and then in does a pretty good job based on your arm movement and glide off the walls of how many laps and what type of stroke which it then bases its distance, calories, etc... off of.

I'm not sure. I just use it as a heart rate monitor while I exercise when pregnant. I know the Garmin watches can (I have one), but it requires a strap for the heart rate (which I hate)

I don't know. I bought it as a gift for someone else. Contact Garmin. They have pretty good customer service, I hear.

If your Garmin has a mini (not micro) USB connection port, it should be fine.

I can't answer because I didn't try it. Probably if you send this question to Garmin they will answer you.

I don't know. I suggest you go to Garmin.com and pose the question with people who are more qualified to answer than I am.

No need for a speed sensor this unit has a built in GPS, it also has a built in water temp sensor on the transducer. Great product.

There is no reason why you could not. You can turn off the GPS and run as stand alone heart rate monitor. The tread mill should give your distance/pace, ect and you would than manually enter that info in to your Runtastic activity profile with the "manual edit" feature online once you had synced the watch and uploaded that specific activity.

Yes, it can do both. They are actually back-to-back options as you toggle through the possible views during a run. I would offer that I've used Garmins in the past and the their pace seems more accurate, and quicker to adjust, while on the run itself - an important quality if pace is your go-to metric while on the run. It will all even out once you upload the run to your running site of choice but that's of little consolation while running. Don't get me wrong - this is a small complaint and I like the watch so far.

I use mine as a speedometer when trolling on my raft. I also mark waypoints for fishing spots. I've been using it for over 2 years on the raft and for hiking. It is holding up nicely.

No. It is not a GPS device. Nor does it "reflect" map application information (but that would be nice) . It only "reflects " performance oriented data from a compatible App like: wahoo or strava; time, speed, cadence, pace, rpm, heart rate, etc.

It will work fine with a Garmin. Because of the cord placement on the GPS it has to be offset to one side, but works great.

Yes, as far as I know, you need some sort of Garmin watch to be able to connect and track your runs.
