Nuvi 760 Battery mod

Has anybody got any feedback on fitting a Nuvi 660 battery (1500Mha) into a nuvi 760? Is the lack of charging compatability cycles between the 2 wire and 3 wire an issue. :shock:

Nuvi Batteries

Hi,
My understanding is, from what I have read, is the batteries are NOT interchangable.
The 760 is a 3.7 volt, 1250mAh battery, where the 660 is a 3.7 volt, 1500mAh battery.
I think you may have a hard time claiming any damages by attempting this interchange.

Cheers,
Rossco.

bigger capacity nuvi battery

Hi rossco,
What I was trying to achieve was a longer usage time on battery alone. My thinking is that the higher the mAh the longer the time to draw off the current, voltage being constant. The unit should consume the same amount of energy on a given task but have a bigger store to draw from. But I have been wrong before and probably will be in the future and this is a good way for us all to learn.

Cheers

interchanging battery's and quality

Hi
I've changed a few Garmin battery's over the yrs and found that there's not that much difference in pricing. But the ones from US seem to be better quality compared to Chinese.
Also with them I got a disk and a tool with instructions.
3 yrs now for last one (760 model) and still running sweet

2-wire battery vs 3-wire replacement

What do you do with the third (yellow) wire? Do you simply cap it?
