Works great, good deal.July 14, 2009 MOMSTER(HERE, OF COURSE) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I disagree with the above reviewer in that you CAN use this while it's charging. It's possible that that person was unable to get a strong enough signal to operate it or perhaps another issue, but NO, it does not go into PC mode. Otherwise, having this charger is convenient when you want to take your GPS on the go with you & it needs some juice but you don't have enough time to do this in the car. Or you're traveling and you don't want to deal with leaving your charger in the car. It's very inexpensive & you don't need to buy any other bells and whistles to charge your GPS. By the way, mine's a Garmin Nuvi 255w.
Good value - Extend the life of your GPSJanuary 6, 2010 jmbigg(Mentor, OH) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought 2 of these for my kids' GPS's. I learned from experience that you cannot rely on the auto plug to keep your GPS alive. I had a Magellan GPS which I kept in the car and only used it every once in a while. Well, after only about 10 months, it died and would not turn on. I contacted Magellan who, by the way, would not honor their warranty, and learned that it was probably the battery that had died due to lack of use. In the meantime, we had given both of our kids GPS's for their vehicles so I purchased these AC chargers for their Garmin Nuvi's which are still functioning fine over a year later. They can keep the batteries in their GPS's constantly charged which should greatly increase their life.
