Charging my Garmin 250W

 

My Garmin 250W came with a plug in charger for the car, but I did not get anything to charge it while in a house. If I plug it into the computer wit the USB cable, does that also charge the battery?
Thanks.

Mike

You can buy a cheap AC

You can buy a cheap AC adapter for USB for a few bucks online at eBay or Meritline or even at Fry's Electronics.

Worth it to be able to charge your Nuvi anywhere you go instead of having to power it from your PC all the time.

Thanks. I thought it would

Thanks. I thought it would do that but I never checked the little battery life indicator before connecting it to the computer.

Thanks. I will check this

Thanks. I will check this out. I agree it would be more convenient. I may even have one in all these cords I have in this junk box.
