+robert Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 GPSGeek is usually pretty cheap Quote Link to comment
+Panda Fan Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I pretty sure I have seen them for sale on Ebay for a real good price. Quote Link to comment
+media601 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Have you got an old computer mouse you don't use? I'll bet no one is as cheap as this. I haven't tried it yet but am going to. There is an eTrex Yellow on the way to me as I speak. I'll let you know how it works out. Quote Link to comment

There is an eTrex Yellow on the way to me as I speak. I'll let you know how it works out. Tried it and it works great. But it's not really rugged. For a few dollars more, try an old mouse and one of these connectors from pfranc.com. I build one for my etrex, one for a freind's etrex, and one for a friend's GPS 38 (different connector). Both worked great. Quote Link to comment

+ATMA Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Using a mouse cable is a good idea. Finish it off with a connector from this guy. http://pfranc.com/projects/e2Plug/index.htm His site is total confusion but his connectors are great. I have made custom power supplies and power supply/data cables using old mouse cables and his connectors. All sorts of information is on his site about making your own cables. Quote Link to comment
