I know it is pricey, but man is this an essential computer for bike touring. I used this on a 7 day ride with minimal sunlight and I only plugged it in once. The touch screen is responsive and reliable, and screen is huge, and customizing the views is a great feature. Syncs up immediately with my Garmin lights and the app. Big, big fan.

Probably defective

I bought the 1040 Solar after great experiences with the 1030 and 1030 plus. Out of the box the battery was down to 29 percent after 9 hours. I spoke to a Garmin tech who helped me revise the settings. On the next ride it was worse. Down below 50 percent after 4 hours. I am returning it as defective. I hope the replacement is better.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the Edge 1040 Solar. I’m sorry to hear about the unexpected battery drain you’ve seen, especially after trying adjustments with our team. Since you’ve already arranged a replacement, I hope the new device provides the reliable battery performance you expect. If any issues continue after the swap, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Garmin Support at 1-800-800-1020 Monday-Friday, 7am-7pm Central.

much better than expected

I bought this to replace an aging 1030. It was getting buggy and I do long rides of 10-12 hours and the battery would sometimes crap out. This is so much faster and the battery life is insane with the sun in Utah. It also has far more new features than expected. IT was a great upgrade and would recommend to anyone considering a change from a 1030 or older.

Easy setup

easily transferred data from Edge 1030. Solar works great. Only drawback is the brightness of the display. Sometimes very hard to see.

Reliable and easy to use

Reliable and easy to use. Don’t leave on your back bumper or place on a tire after a ride though… I’m on my third. Still won’t get anything else though!

Garmin excellence

There is alot packed into the 1040 solar that will take a new user awhile to figure out. Read the manual! I know it is new and you want to check it out. But, read the manual. Then watch YouTube videos on tips and customization ideas from Pro riders. Then setup and enjoy! One final note, get a Garmin Varia it will save your life if you ride on the streets anywhere. It alerts you early enough to at least look behind you or to get out of the way of people who dont understand the 3 foot law.
