Not big drain on car battery. Makes use of GPS in vehicle easy. Keeps batteries available for use on trail.
After replacement, I simply use standard cellphone cigarette adapter and haven't had any problem at all. I had my GPS replaced 3 times.I purchased newer Legend HCx and got it damaged by adapter also. If you have Garmin Legend GPS, do not buy this adapter. I purchased it, used it in the truck and every time you turn off and turn on the engine, it will damage GPS.
4 stars because of the price, yes it's steep. It's a must have for me. Works as advertised on my 60Cx, I was wondering after reading a review that it didn't, it does. Using on a motorcycle so I wouldn't go for the USB power because it seems like it will create a weatherproof seal whereas the USB won't.
LED is a plus letting you know that the unit is working. Purchased to save batteries while travelling.
If you were buying this for a cheap radio you could buy it in the dollar store, but because of the interface you have to buy from them. The trouble with Garmin it charges way to much for all of its add ons.
