cable is way too short Thursday, May 14, 2009The charger does not seem to have been designed for a GPS receiver originally; Gomadic provides a rather shaky GPS receiver tip for it in what looks like a cell phone charger. When the GPS unit is connected to the power outlet, it is impossible to place it on the dashboard or windscreen.
Gomadic Rapid Car Charger works great, cord a little short Saturday, February 14, 2009Rapid Car Charger gave me back my GPS. Love my Garmin 660 GPS for directions; the auto charger that came with it not so much. When the original charger broke I went looking for a replacement. I do not leave my GPS in the car. The original charger was hard to get on and off the unit.
The Rapid Car Charger is easy to plug into the side of the GPS, easy to remove and charges quickly. The only thing I wish the makers had done differently was to make the cord a little longer. The stretch from my car charger to the GPS stretches the cord to the max. But that is a minor issue. If you need a new charger and don't mind the cord poking out the side instead of neatly from the bottom you will like this Rapid Car Charger
Well-made Substitute for Garmin Adapter Tuesday, October 21, 2008This substitute for the Garmin Nuvi 660 GPS is sturdy & fits well into the GPS itself via the USB port (not in the dashboard mount stand, as does Garmin's own car power supply). This adapter cord is able to supply power to different types of devices, because it has interchangeable "power tips" that plug into it, increasing its versatility (it comes with one tip & others are available at extra charge). My only complaint so far is that the fit is too tight in the car power receptacle, & it's hard to remove; hopefully this won't cause problems later. I've used it only a couple of times so far, so I can't comment on its durability.
Rapid Car/Auto Charger for Garmin Nuvi 660 Monday, September 15, 2008Product arrived very quickly and in excellent condition. I definitely would do business with this vendor again.
