Does Exactly What It's Supposed To Do

This cable does exactly what it's supposed to do -- power your Magellan Meridian GPS.

The cable connector snaps onto the car suction cup holder as well as onto the swivel mount so once everything's in place in your car or boat all you have to do is pop in your GPS unit to get all contacts in place. Works great.

perfect

Love it. If you use your Mag in the car, you really need one of these. The amount you save on batteries will more than pay for the cost of this item in no time.

Stupid connection to the GPS

I can't understand why the connector consists of a screw-on bracket thing that never seems to tighten right. It just seems dumb. Why not a conventional plug that conveys the power in a straightforward and reliable manner? It works, but there is a big old resistor thing that is cumbersome. I guess if you need external power you really have NO other choice, Magellan designed it that way.
It works, but could have been done better.
