+user13371 Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Any USB "wall wart" (like the kind that ship with iPods and other USB devices) will work. This one is good: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2180 ...and cheap. Quote Link to comment

+user13371 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Attach the cable end that goes to the GPS "upside down" -- with the wire pointed to the top of the unit instead of down the back. Quote Link to comment
