GPS add-ons
You've already got a great GPS, but now you want more. It's human nature to want to improve the items you've already got. In some cases, it's necessary; in some cases, it's not.
If you've spent the money on a GPS, you want to do everything you can to protect the GPS parts. To protect it from getting scratched or otherwise ruined, you might want to purchase a case. There is a great range of protective cases available. They come in a variety of colors and materials. You might also want to look into whether the case comes with a travel strap, which could increase your comfort.
Your GPS won't be useful if it's not charged. Some people purchase additional chargers and plug-ins to ensure that their GPS is always ready to go.
The list of accessories is quite long and can vary from company to company. Generally, the accessories you need will suggest themselves as you use your GPS.
