Can it be used to charge or power a GPS?

I have used mine to charge my Garmin car GPS when I was too lazy to dig the cable out for it. Handheld unit too. Charges the cheap cell phones as well. I have used many of these car units over the years and this is by far the best. Fastest for charging my iPad.

No reason it shouldn't. Both ports on the CX420 provide as much wattage as any device powered or charged via USB should require.

I can give you no definitive answer, however , if it will plug into the GPS unit , it should be Ok!I use a Garmin nuvi 1350. The charger works fine!

Yes. It is a very nice charger. I use it to charge my phone and my wife's phone when we are traveling. I run the GPS and other apps at the same time and it charges without a problem.

Yes, if the plug size is the same and if your voltage is the same (5amp?) it should work. But, these chargers and cables are so inexpensive now that I won't risk it with my Garmin. Better safe than sorry!

Yes it plugs directly into the GPS unit, it takes the place of the 12 volt unit that comes standard. It's been very useful in my travels. Be safe, God bless

I would think anything that takes a microUSB power supply would be able to use it.It uses the regylar size USB coming out of the battery pack and the little end going into whatever you are charging.

Hmm, not really sure what kind of charging port the GPS uses, but it is possible if it is chargeable with USB port. Rugged Rukus has usb port that allows charging

I was not able to use the mini-USB connection to power the GPS while on the mount. Whenever I plugged the mini-USB power supply in, the USB would automatically go into a charge/update mode only. I had to power the unit using the cradle/cigarette lighter connection. (Note: My original issue was that the cradle connection to it's internal wiring had broken.)

Depends on what you mean by that. There is a cable to use in the car which plugs into your cigarette lighter both powers and charges the GPS. This cable also has a radio receiver for the traffic alert function built into it. It does not come with a separate charger you can use to charge the GPS in the house.

I drive a charter bus and this is a great little device for charging cell phone and it will also charge the GPS unit. Great buy!! Enjoy

You can hook it up to pretty much any device. It doesn't work well charging by solar power. It is pretty much a waste if you wanted it for camping or things like that.

No you Need a universal GPS cord go for about 19.99 at stores. This will charge a cellphone that about it

Haven't tried it yet but for directions , I wouldn't depend on it. Sorry but as backup power it' great for phone or tablet recharging.

Yes, the power cord that plugs into the accessory socket (cigarette lighter) of the vehicle charges the GPS battery. Further, if power to the socket is turned off when you turn off the ignition, the GPS unit will automatically shut down after 15 seconds, and then will power up again when you turn the ignition switch back on.

I have used it to recharge/power my Droid Razr and Toshiba tablet (at different times). It has USB (out) and mini/micro USB slots (in) which should work with your Garmin. It also holds its power well. I haven't been backpacking for over a week and the unit is still showing 80% charged.
