·Just when I had myself convinced I was going to go economy (SPOT, Bushnell MP, etc)
I stopped at Cabelas the other day on the way home from work and made the mistake of looking through a 511 and a 512. My God I am in love. Gotta have it. Well the price is $359 for the 511 and $379 for the 512 (which is comparable to any new on the net). So I have a coupon for $70 off a $300-$400 purchase and $100 worth of points on my Cabelas Visa. So I can get the 511 for $189 or the 512 for $209 (+tax) after I am done.
Question, is the only difference the size and the 512 taking AA batteries (which I like)?? Is it worth the extra $20 to avoid the N batteries? Are N batteries expensive and how long do they last?? Any other differences or things to worry about??
What about warranty?
I have until Dec 24th to agonize about this (then the coupon expires).
Gimme your thoughts!
