Thanks for that info on the Montana 710 series of GPS,
I have been reading up on it and it will fit with what I want also,
I like the external ant, as all my bikes are setup for them.
I am not to sure about the "in Reach" system,
still doing my home work...

FWIW, the Montana also has a handlebar mount which lets you use 12V to power it.

Not helpful for most e-bikes but I use a 12V buck converter for other 12V devices so I also use it to power my 700i.
It also has audio leads if you want to wire up a speaker for turn by turn directions.
I wish the mount had provisions for the external antenna connections in case I ever need it.

Thanks,
So far, I have been using a 10,000 mAh battery bank and It seems
to run/operate all the bike equipment OK, including the 3 Akaso v50x mini camera's so far.
I had a powered mount for my 60csx Gps, was made for MC use,
costs in the 100$ range new...
It may?? have worked OK for a MC use on flat smooth roads,
BUT it DID NOT work for a ATV mount on rough off road conditions, it was constantly going off and on, causing the GPS to lose locations. It is in one the parts/junk draws somewhere.
I prefer good solid single point attachments point for power and ant etc. yrmv
