I purchased this power supply to be used as a permanent installation in my Jeep. As it turns out the coiled cord is much shorter than the original power cord which uses a straight cord. However I ended up using the original power cord for my permanent installation as that cord was not a coiled cord. This new one with it coiled cord actually works better when I mount my Nuvi 200 to the windshield mount as the cord is shorter and neater. The cord is not in the way of my vehicle shifter. The lighter end is much better construction than the original. I'd purchase another one if needed.
I bought this for the AC charger, and that works fine. 2.5 stars. The car charger, however, doesn't work. After a few minutes plugged into my GPS (a Garmin nuvi 255W) and the lighter socket, the GPS shuts off! Zero stars. If you want another car charger, this isn't it. I averaged the stars and rounded up.
