This allows for an increased level of accuracy, especially where individual satellite signals are weak or reflected by the environment and thus are received by the device at different times. The use of multiple frequencies allows these propagation time errors to be corrected.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3 data-toc-id='plDUU'>Solar-Technologie<\/h3>\n<p>In addition, the Edge 1040 Solar is Garmin&#8217;s first cycling computer to feature solar panels above and next to the display. Although the small surfaces are not enough to charge the device&#8217;s battery, they do extend the battery life by a considerable amount.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3 data-toc-id='mSt1f'>Power Guide<\/h3>\n<p>The Power Guide feature can be seen in conjunction with Climb Pro and is supposed to help manage the efforts to be made. Until the official announcement by Garmin, the feature remains a bit contourless, but one of the press images shows &#8220;GUIDE AVG&#8221;, which may be attributed to the Power Guide.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3 data-toc-id='8PJGI'>Stamina<\/h3>\n<p>The &#8220;Real-time Stamina&#8221; feature was first introduced with the Fenix 7 \/ Epix Gen 2 and will probably be on the Forerunner 955. The feature initially was supposed to runners and indicates how much stamina can be expected at which pace. Garmin likely did adapt this feature for the Edge 1040 so that it provides meaningful values for cyclists.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3 data-toc-id='jYjVh'>Improved Performance<\/h3>\n<p>System performance seems to play a role even in cycling computers, and so Garmin promises even better performance with the Edge 1040.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"ftt-image-221882222\" style=\"width: 895px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href='\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg' data-fancybox data-caption='Garmin Edge 1040 \/ Edge 1040 Solar (Source: Garmin via buydig.com)'><img aria-describedby=\"caption-ftt-image-221882222\" loading='lazy' alt='Garmin Edge 1040 \/ Edge 1040 Solar (Source: Garmin via buydig.com)' title='Garmin Edge 1040 \/ Edge 1040 Solar (Source: Garmin via buydig.com)' data-mw='885' src='\/media\/885\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg' sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 295px) 295px,\n(max-width: 450px) 450px,\n885px\" srcset='\/media\/295\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg 295w,\/media\/450\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg 450w,\/media\/885\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg 885w,\/media\/1250\/wp-content\/img\/garmin\/edge-1040\/garmin-edge-1040-back.jpg 1250w' width='885' height='380' class='ftt-img size-large' \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-ftt-image-221882222\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Garmin Edge 1040 \/ Edge 1040 Solar (Source: Garmin via buydig.com)<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 data-toc-id='THVeD'>Garmin Edge 1040 &#8211; Battery life<\/h2>\n<p>Battery life usually increases from generation to generation. This is no different for the Edge 1040, as the new device offers almost 46% more battery life in standard use. The gain is even more significant when using solar energy, as it allows for up to 45 hours use (+87% compared with the Edge 1030 Plus).
