Does a car charger come with a Garmin GPS?

This is the one I'm looking at buying...would it come with a car charger? I'm confused

Yup... all the Garmin GPS units come with a car charger... but the 200 series does not come with a HOME charger... if you want that you will have to purchase it separately.

It may be necessary to reset the gps. YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR USER DATA AND MAY NEED TO RE-DOWNLOAD UPDATES! If you press the bottom right corner on the screen... then turn the unit on... it should prompt you to reset.

Garmin 200 GPS AC charger question?

Will any harm be done to to the Garmin GPS or the charger if I use an adapter with an output of .8 amp?
The car charger that comes with the Garmin has an output of 1 amp which I plug into the adapter, and then into a house outlet. Appreciate any avice


The amp rating is the maximum that the charger can handle without overheating or burning up. If your Garmin demands 1 amp, and your charger can only safely supply 0.8 amp, then it will overheat. Chargers do not push out amps, they only supply amps as demanded by the device being charged.

Now, I do happen to own a Garmin nuvi 200, although I don't have a wall charger for it. But I do have a USB cable that I use to recharge it, and the maximum supply rating for USB power is 0.5 amp. If my Garmin were to exceed that, it would pull down the operation of my other devices on my USB port, which it doesn't.

So, just from personal experience, I'd say that you should be able to safely charge your Garmin with a charger rated at 0.8 amp. Addtionally, as an engineer, we design a 50% safety margin into electronic ratings, which means that 0.8a can actually go as high as 1.2a. So you're good to go.

Garmin GPS charger?

Ive lost my car charger for my gamin 265w.
Would getting a generic mini usb car charger do the job?

I also have a usb inverter that plugs into the car with usb ports on it. Would that work w/ a standard usb cable?


yes,
as long as it fits proper in the location!
or check out this site to order a new one

can i charge my phone in my car with a gps charger?

i have a t-mobile dash and a garmin nuvi and i noticed they both have the same charging plug.
the dash's ac adaptor says output: 5v---1a LPS

and the charger for the nuvi says output: 4.9~5.25vdc/1a

will it damage my phone if i try to charge it?


same votage and current ratings on the chargers so it will work as long as it fits and the polarity is the same at the plug to the phone(the outside is either +or - on both)make sure you check that or it will damage it.

    OK, let’s get down to details.

    The first thing you will need to buy is a DC adapter for your car or the GPS turns off in 1 minute. The “everything you need in the box” is just a powerless windshield mount. AA&T doesn’t carry ANY Nuvi accessories so be prepared to order it from Garmin are find an adapter that works. It is a standard D/C charger plug to a mini USB with a 90 degree bend. Once that is done the GPS part work fine in 3D mode, but has some bugs in 2D mode (the way I always use any GPS). The pink line (your path) disappears , changes color or just doesn’t show. This happens ALL the time. The voice instructions work fine and the directions are correct. So you will get to your destination as longs as your don’t look at the GPS or rely on the pink path drawn in. In the default 3D mode it works correctly. So let’s give it 4 on the GPS part. Hopefully a future update will fix this problem.
