Gilsson GHS 12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter for Garmin n vi 600 to 5000 StreetPilot C510 to C580 and Zumo 400 to 550 Black

Gilsson GHS 12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter for Garmin n vi 600 to 5000 StreetPilot C510 to C580 and Zumo 400 to 550 Black




This cable is specifically designed for Garmin Nuvi, StreetPilot, Zumo GPS receivers. It will power and charge your Garmin GPS receiver at the same time. It utilizes a proprietary 18-pin connector that connects either directly to the GPS or through the Garmin cradle.

User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars Does not fit Zumo 550.
The Zumo 500 and Zumo 550 look almost identical, but they have different connectors. The Zumo 500 uses an 18-pin flat plug (which this product has), but the Zumo 550 uses a USB mini-B style plug. I couldn’t use it since it didn’t fit, so I can’t comment on its performance.

5 Stars Gilsson GHS-12V Cigarette Lighter Adapter
Great product. Fits and works with my Garmin StreetPilot C530. No problems with shipment/receipt of item.

5 Stars Garmin 760 power cord
My dog chewed up my Garmin power cord for my Nuvi 760 while I was at school, so I bought this one. It arrived in a couple of days and works perfectly.

1 Star It TOOK 7 days to be “ready to be shipped” by AMAZON
Not worth the trouble. The item was “in stock” but took 7 days for amazon to ship the item. No help from costumer service. Plus, another 8 days with good old free shipping to get it. So don’t buy it unless you can wait 15 days or more to get it.

5 Stars A Great Replacement
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.

The E71 is the social media device of choice.

November 12th, 2008 Power Gadget Reviews No comments
I was just reading Glen’s post on his belief that the E71 is the social media users dream. I’d have to agree with him, the keyboard makes messaging and replying on social media sites such as Twitter and Jaiku a breeze. I too had one of the loaner E71’s for the NokiaOpenLabs08 event, which was the second time I’d had the device. The three days or so with the device was enough to convince me that the E71 was the right device for me and I upgraded from my N95-1 to the E71 as soon as I could. I

whoever follows me on identi.ca (or on facebook for that matter) knows that i’ve spent a noon lying in a tight and noisy tube. at the inselspital they’re always looking for gunia pigs for mri-studies, and i’ve been there (for the second time now). the reward you get afterwards is a dvd with the images of your bodypart they imaged, the last time it was my head, now - since they’re working on spectroscopy of the heart muscle - i got images of my beating heart and my torso. and since there is a w

an attachment to gadgets August 19th, 2008 my cell phone broke down last night for the second time. last year, it was a black screen. last night, it started restarting itself and then this morning it just somewhat died on me. =( so i spent most of this morning waiting in line at the nokia care center in glorietta, lifeless n6288 in hand. i’ve had it for more or less a year. i’d never dropped it, never gotten it wet; it even had a screen protector. it had bubble bash and the mobile version o

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Works Great!
Great picture quality for a great price makes this cable a definite pick for me and my family whenever we need it!

4 Stars cable -IS- HDMI 1.3
Just a quick note in response to the person claiming the cable isn’t HDMI 1.3 – the cable I received is, indeed, labeled HDMI 1.3b

5 Stars I just don’t get it
These cables work great. they do what they are supposed to do. and theyre 3-40 times cheaper than getting them at the retail store. Ive bought 2, one for my cable box and one for my ps3, and life is good

5 Stars Awesome Cable
When I saw that best buy was selling HDMI cables for over 90 dollars I could not believe my eyes. I picked three of these up for 14 dollars and I was able to get rid of 3 cables on each TV (connecting the box to the TV). How can you beat that?

5 Stars Outstanding Get!
This is actually my second time buying an HDMI cable from here (SFPlanet is a very good provider – I got it in less than a week both times). The first was to obtain full HD capabilities on the Samsung HDTV while watching shows…. the cable is fantastic! I’ve had the first for a year now with no problems…. it’s a gold plated cable for as much as you’d pay for TAX in the store!! I would recommend this to anyone in a heartbeat – the second cable is going on the DVD player to improve the sound quality – HD is much better!

Save the gas! Get this cable for like 5 bucks! (and that includes shipping… what a steal!)
