FAQ
FAQ
Do I need to buy charts separately?
A set of charts is included with the purchase of your MAPTATTOO, simply select the area you are interested in at checkout. You can buy additional charts here: https://www.maptattoo.com/charts/
What mount options do you have?
- You can purchase our Quadlock kit: https://www.maptattoo.com/product/quad-lock-mount-kit/
- You can order a kit directly from Quadlock (they have more mount options): https://www.quadlockcase.com/collections/build-your-own?selected=eyJoZWFkIjoiUUxQLTM2MC1MSCIsImJhc2UiOiJRTFAtMzYwLUZBQiJ9 - you will need to include a "Universal Adapter" that can be glued to the back of MAPTATTOO
- We also have many customers who just use 3M Dual Lock tape
Where can I see more functions?
You can see a detailed breakdown of our marine GPS here
Is the screen colored?
The E-ink screen is black & white (grey levels), but what we lose with monochrome is compensated by an extraordinary contrast in sunlight. Additionally, our screen consumes minimal power, allowing the battery to last for 50 hours.
Can it use external power and can the internal battery be replaced?
The device can be plugged via waterproof USB-C to an external power supply, and the internal battery can be replaced at our facility in Chicago.
