Garmin A/C Charger for StreetPilot C Series Reviews

• Invaluable accessory for Garmin StreetPilot

  
  By A17X7GQ4H9FJUT on 2005-12-26
  The Garmin StreetPilot GPS has built-in batteries, and ships with an automobile 12/24 volt adapter. If you want to avoid having wires draped over your dashboard, purchase this convenient accessory and charge your unit inside. This is particularly handy if you share the GPS between cars, and use it in rental cars while travelling.
  
  

• It isn't for the C550 (auto) unit

  
  By A3A9ZH6YI4WILC on 2007-09-28
  I tried twice to get a AC charger for my C550 auto unit. It was a NO GO. What you receive is not what you need, and fits the C series for the 300 and Zumo 500 series (motorcycle). It's a glich in product numbers. Soooooo, if you want a AC charger for your Auto/unit (C550) you should order from Garmin. Believe me, I'm saving you some hassle, and time. And, to Amazon, it's a small matter you should correct. Thanks...
  
  

• Garmin A/C Charger for StreetPilot C Series

  This charger has a round connector. My StreetPilot c550 has a flat connector, so this item was incompatible with my c550.

  The charger makes recharging your streetpilot easy. Just remember to turn the streetpilot off before recharging.

• Had I known.
  By A245RY615QEES2 on 2007-10-10
  Product works as advertised. Had I known that the charger is identical to those that are used to charge a number of cellphones, which I happen to have, I would not have purchased it.
  
  
• Garmin C340 Charger
  By A25L189YWZQ2TM on 2007-02-16
  Received charger in 3 days. It was a Factory Fresh Garmin Unit. No Instructions included , but it worked fine. It is something that you really need as the USB PORT CABLE CHARGER from your computer is slow as can be. It is a Needed Accessory
  
  
• AC Charger is the Way to go
  By A1UC29ZF4YCSVZ on 2007-07-26
  Bought my Garmin C340 and love it, but having the cigarette charger cord hanging in the car was a pain and it takes awhile to charge the unit. Now that I have purchased the AC charger, I just bring the Garmin in nightly, charge it and its ready to go for the next day. I get a good 6-7 hours of use on one charge and the AC adapter charges the unit much quicker as well. I would highly recommend this product to anyone with a portable GPS system.
  
  
• A/C Charger incompatible connection
  By AKMI7YZMLS9OL on 2007-07-31
  I am writing this response on 7/31/2007. On 7/12/2007, these 2 Garmin A/C Chargers for my C340 purchased on 6/19/2007 were returned because the connection was not compatible. The connection on the A/C charger sent to me is rectangular and my Garmin C340 is round. Assuming that there is no Garmin A/C charger with a round connection, I returned them and requested a refund to my credit card. Please advise the status since it has been about 3 weeks. Thank you.
  
  
• Square male conector, round female connector!
  By A156ZMH5FN2SES on 2007-09-23
  I recently purchased this A/C charger for my C340, and noticed the square male contact on the charger. I figured Garmin was to smart to offer a wrong accessory, so I called their help phone. Used my patience being on hold, but after 22 minutes, got a voice, a nice tech guru answered my query, on the side of the unit above the on/off switch was the square female charging connector! Red faced, I thanked him for his assistance! I like being able to charge my C340 in the house circuit rather than using the cig.lighter, as I use the dash mount and removing the unit and securing it out of sight is a breeze as I don't have to fool with cords...
  
  
• Use a Cell Phone Charger!
  By A32WSX5QSYWUVQ on 2007-12-26
  I was about to purchase this and read the comment about someone using their phone charger so I tried my phone charger and it worked perfect. I have a Motorola Slvr and it works just fine. I'm glad I didn't waste my money.

  Item arrived quickly and works as stated.
  
  
• THIS FITS THE C550!!
  By AZ3VZOZAML7T6 on 2007-12-21
  I purchased this item with hesitation because of the reviews I had read about the square adapter vs round hole on the GPS. People! Turn the GPS around and look for the OTHER connection port. There are TWO on this GPS. Hope this helps.
  
  
• It DOES work
  By A2TUZYARMUEPY2 on 2008-03-08
  I ordered this (Item model#010-10618-00 AC Adapter Cable) before I saw the negative reviews. When it came, and before I opened it I called Garmin. Even though the C530 is not listed, (and yes it DOES say "this accessory is not supported" when you plug it in), here's what Garmin told me.
  
  "When you plug it in and get the message, turn the unit off with the power button on the side. As long as it say "charging" on the screen, it's working." I've charged my unit several times, it works fine.
  
  For the price (currently a little over $14), it's a GREAT buy. Charge in the house, and you don't have to keep it plugged in while using it in the car. Don't be afraid to order this for the Street Pilot C530.

  By A2L6S5OC5B8YKD on 2007-12-07
  The Garmin A/C Charger for StreetPilot works fine and allows you to do such things as locating and saving locations while away from your car. This is particularly handy for people like me who like to locate and save all the points of interest before leaving on a trip.
  
  
• Love It...
  By A35XWA6OIK2QLO on 2008-03-23
  I purchased this months ago for my Garmin C530 street pilot. It is the best thing I could have done since the lighter charger doesn't work so well. I have used it going back and forth from CT to PA and throughout the state.
  
  
• Inexpensive Quick charger
  By A1Q84ZT50EN060 on 2007-03-23
  Garmin Streetpilot C550 Series A/C Charger Does what it is supposed to do. Charges your unit quickly. Inexpensive. Amazon was out of stock so item was purchased through Amazon at ANTonline. Great service and price.
  
  
• Garmin A/C Charger for StreetPilot C Series
  By A18X5TENGAZESN on 2007-05-19
  A standard A/C charger for a Garmin StreetPilot Series GPS. It does what it is intended to do. Plain and simple it recharges the battery in your GPS unit via a 110V outlet.
  
  
• Great Investment
  By A2T4UWOW92RV3D on 2007-05-20
  The Garmin was recommended to me by a friend when I was planning a vacation. This turned out to be one of the best investments that I have made whether around town or across several states it has saved me several times from wrong moves saving gas and irritation. I would recommend it highly as it is simple to program well lit with an easy to read display.
  
  
• Garmin A/C charger
  By A3KW6WGHWWUBIK on 2007-05-21
  All Garmin products seem to be quality items. This a/c charger allows me to enter destinations into our c330 while at home and in the house. Very convenient to use.
  
  
• Completely satisfied Customer
  By A32Z4K3ADAWBI0 on 2007-07-06
  Can't be happier with the way the transaction went, as well as the product. Would buy again from this Vendor

  By A2DZHCS72URUB6 on 2007-08-13
  works great..ordered on a Wed. and received it on Thurs. couldn't ask for it to be any quicker..
  
  
• Not really needed
  By A1ZXPY3JJDA6T3 on 2007-10-18
  The built in charger with the Garmin, connecting to the cigarette lighter, is really all you need. Perhaps if you travel a lot without your car, and need your Garmin fully charged right away for use in another vehicle, this might be useful. But I find I do not use the separate charger.
  
  
• Overnight and you're off again
  By A1BPOYZDY1KYQA on 2007-10-22
  Use the C340 all day long in a rental car, plug in at the hotel overnight and you're ready to do it all over again.
  
  
• WILL NOT WORK ON GARMIN C 530.
  By A1WOXR4EQ71F5Q on 2007-12-04
  WHY DOES AMAZON SAY THIS WILL WORK ON GARMIN C SERIES ?
  IT CLEARLY DOES NOT.
  
  
• AC Adapter Review
  By A1H1DOF2MJ88PE on 2008-03-23
  Great accessory! I do not use too often as I am not traveling as much as I thought, but I have friends that did not buy the adapter and said they wish they had. The lost battery life in the unit after several years and think if they had the charger would have extended. Great price!
  
  
• nice replacement charger
  By A1B655VDSWX4OH on 2008-06-14
  i have the garmin streetpilot c320. i've had it for almost 3 years now. but the other day i left the stand on the windsheild, in over 90 degree heat. so it was even hotter in my car.
  
  the ac adapter in my car was still plugged in to the stand, and when i pulled it out, the charger part of the stand broke off when i pulled it.
  
  i love my gps, i dont know what i'd do with out it, so i had to get a replacement.
  
  i decided to get this, so i dont have to mess with cords in my car. i can just bring the gps into the house when the battery is low. its really nice not have to wrap the stiff ac cord up when i put my gps away when not using it.
  
  
• You don't need it
  By A2F3PIZL0HLDFO on 2008-07-23
  I don't know why you would need this. We ordered it and only used it one time. After figuring out how to use our Garmin we discovered that our model does not hold a charge, thus we cannot carry it around and use it. To use it as a GPS, it has to be in a car and plugged into the outlet there. You wouldn't really have a need to have your GPS plugged in at your home, because it isn't moving and cannot function.
  
  
• garmin streetpilot c series a/c charger
  By APRZCAC5PH8D8 on 2007-03-24
  this is good for when you go on a trip you know it will keep your streetpilot going. and it isn't bulky. and it's made with quality just like the streetpilot itself.
