The Montana is waterproof to IPX7 standards, so you can use it in any weather. You can even use it around water without worrying about damage.
With the Montana, you can measure an area for farming and other rural and marine applications. Area measurement is simple and fast. Just walk, drive or ride around the perimeter to be measured, press a button, and there you have it. A really productive feature for farmers, botanists, agronomists, graziers, oyster and fish culture, salt-works... etc etc. For farming, agriculture, agronomy, aquaculture and related endeavours, the Montana 680T measures distances and directions between points, and area measurements.
Montana 680T features a one-of-a-kind dual battery system. You'll have the option of using the rechargeable lithium-ion pack or traditional AA alkaline batteries – whichever suits your needs better.
Both durable and waterproof, Montana 680T is built to withstand the elements. Bumps, dust, dirt, humidity and water are no match for this rugged navigator. No matter the setting – on the trail, in the car, or on the boat, - Montana is right at home.
