Excellent but limited
By Quinbould
This power adapter does the job. It's neat because it may handle a wide range of voltage inputs. It has a little in-line power box that adjusts the input to fit the needs of the Meridian. The problem I had is that I purchased it before realizing the power and the computer connection both use the same strange I/O connector. So if you use this adapter, you can't connect to your laptop. The solution is to buy the more pricey dual cable version that has both battery cord and serial cable attached.

Does it is job, what more could I ask for?!
By Balaji Ramanathan
I purchased this with a Magellan sportrak pro GPS unit. I already knew with regards to the connector being shared with the data port, but since I don't have a laptop, I didn't want to waste the extra cash to get the dual cable.
This item does precisely what it is supposed to. It works outstanding on long drives when I don't have to worry when it comes to draining the batteries down to a point where I can't use the GPS unit at the destination. Attaching and detaching the connector using the D-rings is a little more involved than something that may just be plugged into the GPS, but obviously, making the GPS submersible involved compromises like this. I may live with that.

Great product, recompense for itself!
By Ryan
I'm also a Geocacher, and I have to say this is a great product! I've been wasting cash on rechargable batteries, but now I don't even have to worry in regards to batteries at all. Good for long trips, too; because you don't even have to have batteries at all. A must-have for any individual owning a Meridian GPSr!
