+rusty_da_dog Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I was just wondering since I picked up an External power cable for my Magellan Platinum. Can you leave the batteries in while you are using external power? or will that screw up the unit? Any suggestions, comments, observations........ Cya on the trails, Rusty Quote Link to comment

+Z_Statman Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 When my Color is in the car and its hookup the batteries are in. Note that they will not charge if rechargables. Quote Link to comment
robertlipe Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 It will not recharge them. YOu won't find things that allow commodity AA's to recharge in the device. The first time someone loads a set of alkalines in it and you backcharge it and the device explodes, it would be bad. Explorist will do what you ask, but it's not AA. Quote Link to comment
