Works Good.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Garmin compatible PC Interface Data Cable for eTrex Legend Venture Vista Mariner, eMap, Geko (Vista, Legend, etc.) (Electronics)
I bought this to go with my Garmin E-Trax H that I bought at Amazon. No direcions, but I had it working in about ten minutes. I can download my waypoints very easily. Just make sure you have a older computer to use with a serial port, or you have to buy a cable to fit to this one that plugs into a hsb port.

It Works,
By davidww (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Garmin compatible PC Interface Data Cable for eTrex Legend Venture Vista Mariner, eMap, Geko (Vista, Legend, etc.) (Electronics)
I bought this cable along with a "USB to Serial DB9 (RS232) Adapter Cable (Garmin compatible)" from the same seller, Navsphere, to use with an Etrex and a very nice Mac app called GPSNavX. Taken together, the two cables are rather bulky - a straight Garmin-to-USB cable would be a preferable alternative, but that doesn't exist, so with that mild reservation, I'm happy. Navsphere was quick and fuss-free to deal with, so the whole experience has been positive.

Works great - tight going on and off,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Garmin compatible PC Interface Data Cable for eTrex Legend Venture Vista Mariner, eMap, Geko (Vista, Legend, etc.) (Electronics)
I bought this to use with my Garmin Geko 201 - works great with a USB to serial adapter, and Garmin's Mapsource software. I do occasionally have to reboot my PC to get it to get everything to work - but I think that's just windows, or the usb/serial adapter's drivers - not the cable.
It is a little tight going on and off the GPS - the official Garmin cable may be tight as well - just make sure you push it on all the way when using it. And - my Geko 201 has a little rubber flap that protects the contacts - I accidently ripped it off the very first time I was removing this cable! Dumb! My fault - not the cable's - maybe Garmin's for not providing a better cover - but I was able to re-attach the rubber flap with some electrical tape. Anyway, the cable works great.
