The temperature rating for the GPS 72H

may exceed the usable range of some

batteries. Alkaline batteries can rupture at

high temperatures. Alkaline batteries lose

a significant amount of their capacity

as temperature decreases. Use lithium

batteries when operating the GPS 72H in

below-freezing conditions. Extensive use

of screen backlighting will significantly

reduce battery life.
