I think so where the one I got at radio shack does not. Problem is that a slight tug will pull the plug apart and make it unusable. It happened to all my plugs very quickly. I am going to the company direct next time. Good luck!

Yes, the car charging adapter allows you to charge the gps while using the gps to navigate. I hope this answer your question.

Yes. But through the wiring harness only, which is permanetly wired into the cradle and has about 5' of cord. It is not directly on the gps or cradle

Rocky, yes, if your Garmin will not operate while plugged into the cars 12V port, then something is really haywire! No wonder you are frustrated. Hope everything works out well for you.

Only compatible for charging- you want the Garmin GTM 25,26,35 or 36 to charge and receive traffic

Yes. We actually have one of the older (and well used) units, so the gps battery actually doesn't hold a charge much anymore - meaning the unit is ALWAYS plugged in when in use. We've got ours plugged in to a power port that is linked to ignition, so it powers up/down on key start.

Yes. Instead of plugging the power source directly into the GPS, you plug it into the mount. The 3590 then is plugged into the mount. You use the push bar at the bottom to remove it. This way you don't have to plug and unplug the GPS each time. You only have to set it into the mount and click it into the top. The mount has a speaker in it also. The 3590, in addition to the connection with the mount, also has a micro-USB input so it can be plugged directly into a computer to update the maps, etc.

No. Unit consists of one piece. The wire is permanently fixed to the adapter that plugs into the wall. The other end has a plug that plugs into the Garmin. It works great for charging Garmin.

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!

I own 2 4700 GPS's and can confirm the USB will indeed charge the units, albeit slowly.If left plugged in for a few hours the units achieve a full charge from my UBS port on the home desktop.

Yes, this cable does charge the Garmin gps battery while connected to your computer. Your computer must be turned on to charge the Garmin though. You should also make sure that you power off your Garmin when this is being done.

I have used mine to charge my Garmin car GPS when I was too lazy to dig the cable out for it. Handheld unit too. Charges the cheap cell phones as well. I have used many of these car units over the years and this is by far the best. Fastest for charging my iPad.

Yes, you can. When the unit is fully charged, it cuts off from the charging mechanism. Mine is always plugged in, and ready to go, when needed. Happy screw driving. Does'nt it seem logical? Otherwise, it would be useless when immediately needed. Go for it!!

Yes this unit has a DC charger adapter that fits cars which have a DC outlet

The charging mechanism connects to the GPS system. The mount itself has nothing to do with it. A bracket fits on the GPS system which allows it to be connected to the mount.

car charger fits in the case,not sure what you mean by mount,if it is what you attach the GPS to I would say no...it would not fit.

Yes, but you need to make sure you ground the negative wire. Some devices will not enter a charging cycle if it isn't grounded. Also this is a mini-USB, so make sure it will fit your Garmin.

Yes. There is a port on the back of the mount to plug your car charger into.
