This cable is specifically designed for Garmin Nuvi, StreetPilot, Zumo GPS receivers. It will power and charge your Garmin GPS receiver at the same time. It utilizes a proprietary 18-pin connector that connects either directly to the GPS or through the Garmin cradle.
User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Does not fit Zumo 550.
The Zumo 500 and Zumo 550 look almost identical, but they have different connectors. The Zumo 500 uses an 18-pin flat plug (which this product has), but the Zumo 550 uses a USB mini-B style plug. I couldn’t use it since it didn’t fit, so I can’t comment on its performance.
5 Stars Garmin 760 power cord
My dog chewed up my Garmin power cord for my Nuvi 760 while I was at school, so I bought this one. It arrived in a couple of days and works perfectly.
5 Stars Gilsson GHS-12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter
Great product. Fits and works with my Garmin StreetPilot C530. No problems with shipment/receipt of item.
1 Star It TOOK 7 days to be “ready to be shipped” by AMAZON
Not worth the trouble. The item was “in stock” but took 7 days for amazon to ship the item. No help from costumer service. Plus, another 8 days with good old free shipping to get it. So don’t buy it unless you can wait 15 days or more to get it.
5 Stars A Great Replacement
I purchased a Garmin Nuvi and have been using it for several months. One problem I encountered is that the end of the 12V (cigarette lighter) adapter came unscrewed and the parts inside fell out–a spring, fuse, etc. The second time this happened I couldn’t find all of the parts so the cable was useless! I purchased this cable as a replacement and it seems to fit and work perfectly with the Garmin.
