bobmachus Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I am looking for a vehicle power cord at a brick n mortar store as I am leaving on a road trip in 2 days. I am in south michigan. I checked the closest walmart, best buy and target. Any thoughts? Anybody out there got one? bob Quote Link to comment
+wycofamily Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Do you have a Bass Pro or Cabelas near by ? That would be your best bet ! Quote Link to comment

+Team_FussyPants Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 If you have a GPS that has a USB interface cable, go to radioshack or walmart and pick up a 12v lighter usb port. I have a double port adapter and I can power both my Garmin and my Iphone off it with the factory cables. Quote Link to comment
bobmachus Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 A power cord for what device? Don't I feel silly...I am so scatterbrained getting ready for this trip. I have a Garmin 60CSX that just arrived from Cabela's (that $219 package deal with free shipping!). There is a Bass Pro just outside of town I will pass as I start my trip. Quote Link to comment

My phone charger is a mini USB and I just use that with my 60Csx - nothing special. Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 To reiterate what geecmom said above. Any powercord with a mini-USB male connection (not a micro-USB) will work. They all put out about 3-5 volts which will work for all Garmins. Quote Link to comment
bobmachus Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 Well, that's great news. I can use my phone charger. Thanks for saving me from buying a new cord! Bob Quote Link to comment
