 Good Accessory September 15, 2008
Don (NOVA usa)
Works as advertised on my 60Cx, I was wondering after reading a review that it didn't, it does. Using on a motorcycle so I wouldn't go for the USB power because it seems like it will create a weatherproof seal whereas the USB won't. It's a must have for me. 4 stars because of the price, yes it's steep.
Works good and saves batteries June 6, 2008

Purchased to save batteries while travelling. LED is a plus letting you know that the unit is working.
 Way to expensive June 5, 2008

The trouble with Garmin it charges way to much for all of its add ons. If you were buying this for a cheap radio you could buy it in the dollar store, but because of the interface you have to buy from them.
 What can you say? It's a power adapter, gotta have it, and they know it! April 7, 2008

Works fine with my Vista HCx, just way overpriced!
But, it allows the use of the GPS in the car without using your batteries, and is great for turning up the brightness, as others have noted.
Garmin really does need to think some things through however. Both their AC and DC adapters are just that, adapters. The Vista HCx GPS I use accepts rechargeable batteries, but neither of their adapters are designed to charge batteries, but only to supply voltage to operate?! Kind of short-sighted on their part.
Good product, but I'm deducting points for price, and being unable to function as a charger.

I used this item for the first time this last weekend. It was nice feeling that I was not using the batteries up before even getting to our activity center. No need to carry a bunch of batteries along. Good to go.
