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.

You gotta really force the plug into the back of the GPS but once plugged in, it charges the GPS really well. The plug does not come out while driving or moving.

Just so you know, I have the Garmin c550.

I bought it from Amazon that was selling it cheaper than other internet sellers. I got it fast and have been using it everyday since then. It is a quality cable that powers my Garmin Street Pilot as it suppose to.

My old garmin adapter somehow broke and needed a replacement. I searched the web and found lots of cheap replacement but had terrible reviews. I saw this item had very good reviews and bought it. It was shipped fast and it worked like a charm. It seems to be strong and not made with cheap materials. I would recommend this for replacement of your garmin adapter.

I bought this cable as a replacement for the one that came with my Nuvi, after the original cable was destroyed in a car accident. Unfortunately, the original cable had a traffic receiver built in, so you obviously will no longer receive traffic data if you replace that with this one (that replacement cable is around $100). However, for supplying power, this cable is excellent. It fits solidly into the Nuvi and I have no worries that it will ever slip out or become loose. The cable itself feels plenty think and sturdy. If you're just looking for a spare charger, this is the one to get!

This product simply did not work properly. When plugged in, did not maintain connection. Returned for refund.

This item was delivered promptly and in good condition. However, it was not compatible with my Garmin Nuvi 750 as advertised. This was very disappointing and made my vacation a real pain.

Great product. Fits and works with my Garmin StreetPilot C530. No problems with shipment/receipt of item.

This charger is better quality than the original piece. The charging unit on the factory piece use to come off in 5 different pieces if you pulled it out of the cigarette lighter the wrong way. Eventually, we lost one of those pieces and the charger was useless. This Gilsson charger is MUCH better than the original. The charging piece is solid and there is no way that it could come apart.

I experienced the same problem that many respondents discussed with the end that goes into the lighter socket coming apart and I could not find all the parts. This replacement works with connectivity and is functional, but the cable is very stiff and does not drape and route neatly like the original did.
