I usually run RideWithGPS on my smartphone in parallel and record my track there (yes tracking uses some phone battery, but not as much as screen-on navigation).

It comes preloaded with premium North America TopoActive maps and the option to download additional maps if needed.

The eTrex is not rechargeable in the typical sense, but it can run on USB power (via mini-USB cable) OR two AA batteries.
