Ok, so I was looking for something to power my nuvi GPS on motorcycle. Read many reviews and picked this one. It does work well. Used ties to position voltage reducer to frame under seat. Then ran striped wires end to splice into tail light. Lastly, I ran GPS plug end under tank along existing wires and tied them down. And there you have it... Riding all day with a powered GPS on a motorcycle.

Comment:
Title says it all. The very hard to find fuze arrived with a broken or possibly even blown filament!
Haven't had any luck finding a replacement of that size and amperage.
Bummed.

Comment:
I purchased both the RAM mount along with the Gilsson Direct Wire Cable for Garmin Nuvi to mount my Garmin with hard wire. The 90 degree plug on the wire does not properly connect into the Garmin unit as it interferes with the plastic rib below the connector on the Garmin. I was, however, able to remedy this with a hand grinder removing 50% of the rib. This is an issue with the cable as the cable included with the Garmin has a longer plug.

Comment:
Junk. Installed on my bmw motorcycle as 5V step down supply to Garmin Nuvi Series GPS. It worked for about 6 hours, then intermittently began failing. Very shortly after, it failed & caused the failure of the gps (supplied 12Vdc directly to the gps). I didn't tear it apart (because I intend to return it), but it's pretty obvious that it doesn't have overvoltage protection on the output. Maybe it is a simple voltage divider resistor network with out any regulation, doesn't matter- it's junk. I replaced it with a Powerlet adapter and new garmin GPS 1500 miles from home in Buffalo NY. That works like a champ, so anyone with a bmw, triumph or other european designed bike, try [...] instead of hardwiring in this device. I am disappointed that it took out the gps and cost me [...] to replace it in the middle of a long trip.

Comment:
Wired this direct to my fuse box on my motorcycle. There are two draw backs with this item.
1) Wire connects to the usb port thereby dimming the screen of the garmin until disconnected.
2) Transformer box is flimsy. It worked for two weeks and then failed. The egg contains a small circuit board and fuse. The clips holding the fuse are flimsy and lost contact with the fuse. Had to bend them to make them a bit tighter but I expect it to fail again.
