Not compatible with Garmin 255W   2010-07-06
By Llyrell
Connected this to my recently purchased Garmin 255W, and it caused my GPS to go into "USB Mass Storage" mode preventing navigation. Apparently Garmin uses a proprietary mini-USB connector in their cigarette charger, and this direct wire does not properly emulate it. I plan to buy a cigarette lighter female socket and just direct wire that and use the original charger.
Does not work with Garmin Nuvi 255, 255W, or 255WT   2010-06-29
By Michael L. Wenman (BUENA VISTA, CO, US)
I purchased this item along with a Ram Mount Weather proof box and installed it on my 2006 Harley Ultra. Soldering it into a 12V switched power source was easy along with routing the cables into the box (with a little modification) however, once connecting it to my Nuvi 255W, the GPS would only go into data mode. I called Gilsson Technologies to try to get their input on a solution and the lady informed me that they know that there is a wiring problem on this direct wire dc cable that affects the Nuvi 255 series and they are currently working on a solution, but it won't be available until mid to late fall 2010. If you have this GPS series, I would recommend that you do not get this wiring /power solution and hold off or search for another solution, but call that other company first to see if they have known issues.
Works great   2010-06-08

The Gilsson Direct Wire Cable for my Garmin Nuvi 760 works great. It allows me to run and charge my Nuvi within its Otterbox case (which was not deep enough to accept the standard mount). I can also turn the unit on and off by plugging-in and unplugging the 12V plug. The Gilsson wire comes without plug on the source end, so you can attach it to your 12V system any way you want. I scavenged an obsolete power cord and soldiered the Gilsson wires the plug (and I'm not even good at soldiering).

Use it to power my Garmin GPS on my 2006 GL1800 and it works great.
Easy way to hard-wire a GPS   2010-04-14
By RG (Readfield, ME USA)
Bought this, along with a Littelfuse FHM200BP ATO Add-A-Circuit Kit, to install a Garmin Nuvi 255 in a Subaru Outback. Worked great. There's no instructions, so I had to google which wire to connect to source power (the red one) and which to ground (the black one).
