battery is used primarily to save the GPS data of a previous use to accelerate the acquisition of the position. It also serves to save Settings "for" as SBAS, Trickle, etc ... When the battery no longer supply the memory of the GPS, everything returns to Settings "factory".
It seems to me that there are 3 categories of internal batteries:
1. Lithium Battery (5 years) - the CF GPS Fortuna example. This is good but after 5 years can be discarded.
2. Capacitor - on Globalsat GPS (or it takes within 48 h) or Fortuna GPSmart or it takes one week - almost immediate reloading for Globalsat
3. Rechargeable Battery (Holux, Emtac, Haicom) - the AC takes at least a week but it takes longer to load (48h?) - Probably Lithium-Ion
It is important before a first use to allow a CF GPS with a capacitor / battery inserted into a CF slot (PocketPC or Laptop) to ensure that the internal battery will keep the SET as long as possible.The internal battery is used primarily to save the GPS data of a previous use to accelerate the acquisition of the position.
