| Posted by dodds Charging garming sat nav Can I leave my sat nav plugged in to my car 12V power supply whilst driving around or will it damage it? |
| Posted by GarminGuy Keeping your GPS unit fully charged. Yes you can leave it in and it will charge it up until fully charged, and then the unit will not charge any further. In fact, Garmin recommends that you have it plugged in all the time while you're driving, to keep the unit fully charged. |
| Posted by cdnche-05 re: Keeping your GPS unit fully charged. Newer Garmin units have larger screens, faster processors, deal with bigger map databases. They are set up to be plugged in. 25xx series dispensed with pedestrian mode, presumably because of the shorter battery run times. |
| Posted by bessaston Charging Garmin outside the vehicle I can't seem to charge mine in the house. Does anyone know how? It just says that it can't charge using the usb cable when it's either on my pc or using a usb plug |
