I was going to purchase a Bushnell Backtrack I found on CR , however before Purchasing I contacted Bushnell and inquired the following.
If you store locations and find you need to change batteries while in
backcountry will memory retain locations logged?
Here was their response:
This unit should indeed retain marked locations for a short time after
battery failure. I hope this is of assistance and that you have a
wonderful day.
Please do not reply to this message.

Would someone who owns one please validate this is true. I have read conflicting comments and otherwise on other various websites. Could the conflict be between various models ? Perhaps I wasn't explicit enough in my original question to Bushnell. Older vs Newer? The model I was looking at buying was the original unit simular to below.
The CR poster wanted $15.00 as they had upgraded to another.
