Garmin Edge 1040 Solar

The Garmin Edge 1040 Solar is a GPS bike computer with a Power Glass solar charging lens over its 3.5 in. touchscreen. On daytime rides the lens stretches the battery to up to 45 hours in demanding use, or up to 100 hours in battery saver mode. Those figures assume continuous 75,000 lux during daytime riding. Multi-band GNSS gives even better coverage on remote trails and in the urban canyon. Paired with compatible sensors, it sets your cycling ability against the demands of a specific course and shows where to focus your training.

Edge 1040 Solar is powered by the sun and packed with everything under it. It pairs solar charging with multi-band GNSS technology, for longer rides and even better coverage under dense tree cover or the urban canyon. The Edge 1040 Solar bike computer also has performance features that help you understand your strengths and weaknesses. When paired with your compatible sensors, it can even help you manage your efforts by providing power targets throughout a course and stamina feature insights, so you know how much gas is left in the tank. The setup is simple too, so you can take it out of the box and be out riding in no time.
