Need Recommendation

 
Sun, 02/20/2011 - 5:18pm

I have a Nuvi 350 which recently won't fully charge. It has two green bars at the top, operates fine but no amount of charging using either the auto connector or the stepped down 120 volt charging line will bring more green to the state of charge. Methinks it is the battery after a reasonable life. I like the 350 & want to continue to use it.

Any recommendations about where to buy the battery & any tools to enable me to replace it as well as expected price would be very welcome.

Thanks.
Fred

Here is the page for the 350. I just received one from them for my 680 and followed the video for installation. Piece of cake. Shipping was quick and the battery came with the proper installation tools, no extra charge!

Thanks guys. I'll check into those sites. I still like the Nuvi 350 because it can play mp3's, identifies all the cross street &, of course, has a fabulous set of POI's from this site.

Appreciate it.

Also

I also got my replacement battery from batteryship.com. Fast shipping, free tools, good buying experience. Of course, the real test none of us will know until time passes... how long will any replacement battery continue to take and hold a charge compared to the original?!?
