Hmm, not really sure what kind of charging port the GPS uses, but it is possible if it is chargeable with USB port. Rugged Rukus has usb port that allows charging

If A Garmin will take a USB to Mini-USB charging cord, then yes you can, and it will be easy. When it's delivering power, you plug the USB end of the cable into the PowerGen, and the Mini-USB end into the device that needs power. When you need to recharge the PowerGen from a wall charger, you just reverse the cord, and plug the Mini-USB into the input on the PowerGen, and the USB plug into the output of a standard cell-phone/device wall charger. I've used mine for a variety of devices, such as my tablet, Bluetooth speakers and headphones, and various cellphones. I wouldn't go on a trip without one or two of them, plus a couple of adapters (my tablet uses a non-standard power connector). If you get one of the PowerGens with dual outputs, I have charged two cellphones at the same time, or a cellphone and a tablet. It fully charged both very quickly, and still had some power left. It appears to charge about 50% faster than hooking it up to a plug-in charger in a car (which is a pretty slow charge). Of course the charge time also depends on the capacity of the device you are charging. If the Garmin uses some other type of power connector, you should still be able to use it, if the opposite end is a standard USB plug, to plug into the power output of the PowerGen, but you will need the USB to Mini-USB cable I mentioned when recharging the PowerGen. Hope that helps.

Yes you can, assuming a USB port is always available to you. When travelling by car I prefer to have the ability to charge by USB, auto 12v socket, or standard 110 household socket. There is a wealth of options of what you can buy with a Garmin plug on one end of a wire and the plug on the other.

Barb,I use my Motorola Cellphone's AC adaptor to charge the GPS when I am at home. My booklet says 4 hours on Charging time.

Yes it will. I have charged my Garmin 3590LMT gps twice already with no problems. All you have to do is use the usb cord that came with your gps unit to connect to a computer. This usb will fit into the Anker but, you need to check your gps unit to see how many amps a compatable wall charger delivers so you use the proper outlet on the Anker. I used the 1A outlet and it charged the Garmin as fast as my wall charger.

Your computer O/S will recognize that the USB cord has been plugged in, so very probable the driver is for the Garmin. Sorry can't be positive. I purchased this not as a data cable but to enable me to use a 12 v plug for power on a boat. The Garmin chartplotting GPS eats AA's.

Hello Jason, Check and see if the USB interface is to either just update the data on the devise, or if it's a means to charge it as well. If it is a dual purpose, and can charge the GPS, then, yes, it should be able to charge it.

I can give you no definitive answer, however , if it will plug into the GPS unit , it should be Ok!I use a Garmin nuvi 1350. The charger works fine!

Yes. I bought a standard adapter and plugged the Garmin charger into it and it worked fine.

The Power Rating is 5 Watts Continuous which is the problem. The tip doesn't really matter at this point. The output voltage is likely to change often which changes the output current; hence 5W Continuous Max Output. Your GPS device most likely will charge with a simple 5V 1A USB car adapter. The 5V 2A charger included with your GPS module was a design that allowed for a faster battery charge. I'd look for a replacement usb charger online for the Garmin 3597 and have a look at the output specs of those chargers. My gut felling is a 5V 1A usb charger will work and it's likely you already have a generic usb car adapter and micro-usb cable. The Power Rating is 5 Watts Continuous which is the problem.

I just ordered an AC charger for a Garmin GPS without any other specifications. Since it woks well with my Garmin, I'm sure it will work with yours. If you want to make sure, go to the Garmin website and ask the company.

Guess it depends on.... what are the plug ends like, what is the amperage, what is the.... etc.... You might do a google search for your garmin model and ac adapter - will probably find 30 or 40 links... You might call Garmin, but they will probably say buy my cheap $20 adapter :-} Personally, we'll probably never have it plugged into ac - will either be on my computers / laptop while downloading or in the vehicles - so lack of an ac charger is not that big of an issue with me :)

It should, as it is simply a battery pack that you can plug a USB/mini USB into or others if you use adapters into. I've used it on my garmin 910xt, htc phone and lights for my bike.

No the radio does not charge the battery. You can use the USB cable and attache to a computer, or an MP3 charger, etc. I use the charger that came with my Garmin GPS, in the house or in the car. As long as the cables attache correctly U R OK .

It's only offer the mini USB power that come with it. I recommend you to get other models this one it's for only GPS CHARGE ONLY IT DOES
