6.6ft USB Charging Cable for Garmin GPS Devices (12V/36V)

John C.: Works perfectly on my Garmin Nuvi 67 and gives me extra use with up to 2 USB charging spots.
The only thing negative that I can say, is that it connects in the opposite direction which is not a really big deal as there is enough length in the cord to fold it and so it doesn't make much of a difference... Great Deal, it Works and I would recommend and buy again!

N.O. Schitte: I travel with a Garmin GPS along with the window mount and charger. After plugging into the cigarette lighter in the car, and driving through the Nevada desert for Utah - the Garmin gave an error that I was using a non-Garmin USB cable and would not charge. I found this very dangerous and shame on Garmin for forcing this issue. I was able to continue via the GPS on my cell phone and reached Utah, but immediately ordered this non-Garmin (they did say Garmin compatible) which was half the price of buying it from Garmin - and it worked.
That Garmin would risk someone's life by putting some sort of chip in the cable and not charging is a disgrace, I'll give my money first to a competitor.

DominusMephysto: So great to have My GPS plugged in, as well as My phone and still a free USB slot! Excellect product! My only concern is it's a tad big for the car plug, you really have to shove it in, but it works great once it receives power!

R. Ross: Works with my Garmin DriveTrack, including getting traffic data!

My problem is that I need to power two or three USB devices in the car and can't afford to have my Garmin GPS using up the cigarette lighter plug just for itself. However, to receive Garmin's Traffic data seemingly requires that their car cigarette-light plug power supply (TA-10 or TA-20) be used, as it "contains a traffic antenna." After using one of the monstrous multi-cigarette sockets for a while, it was time to try and find a small compact solution that wouldn't interfere with my car's gear shift lever.

After a bunch of testing, I found that the APPHOME unit works just fine with my Garmin Drive Track unit...INCLUDING RECEIVING TRAFFIC DATA. However, as a note, Garmin makes a large variety of GPS units that use a variety of different Traffic signals. Thus, my positive experience may not relate to your unit....but it may.

Since there seems to be a lot of mixed info on the Garmin GPS traffic reception requirements, I've summarized below the results of MY tests with MY Gramin 7" Drive Track unit:
1) If I plug my Garmin into a conventional USB cell phone charger unit (typically with five wire...

Soloviajero: This charger is a nice balance of design considerations if all you want to do is power your Garmin GPS and also power two USB devices. It does not support the "Traffic" function on Garmin GPSs because the power cable does not contain the traffic "antenna" that is contained within the original factory cable. If you want to use the traffic function, you need to buy the Garmin inverter, sold on their website for around $25. That (Garmin) design is a piggy-back extension of the original factory cable that provides two USB plugs on the side. By piggy-backing the original factory cable, the antenna is still there and the Traffic function is unimpaired. But Garmin's piggy-back design is long and unwieldy, and this unit is short and compact.

However, if you don't use "Traffic," then this is a sweet design. It isn't long and unwieldy, and it routes the cable nicely to the passenger side, it's compact and it gives two USB plugs surrounded by a pleasant blue light, which is not nearly so bright blue as the product photo might suggest. The cable is Garmin-compatible and doesn't trip any "unsupported cable" alerts, and it doesn't make you wait for the maps to appear the way a direct USB...
