(More customer reviews)Looking at the photo of this item, I noticed the plug at the end of this car lighter charger is NOT the screw on contraption needed for my eXplorist 400, so I was hesitant to purchase it until I did further research and found out WHY the plug is different.
You still need the USB cable that came with the eXplorist and have to bring it in the car too!
The big AC plug detaches from the USB cable, and AHA! Now you have a jack that this car charger can plug into! Then you screw that cable onto your GPS unit as when you charge it via AC.
In other words... This charger does NOT plug into your GPS, it plugs into your GPS charger cable which attaches to your GPS.
But I don't want to take that cable in the car with me, because if it gets damaged or lost, then I can never charge the unit at all, not even at home with AC.So I was forced to find and purchase another USB cable assembly seperately, to keep in the car with this car lighter charger.
Magellan should have just put the screw on connector at the end of this car charger instead of the way they did it.
The car lighter charger has a nice coiled cord, but what good is it? You still have to have the long USB cable attached to it anyway!
But hopefully this will help everyone, that like me, was puzzled by the photo of the item and the connector that isn't going to fit anywhere in the eXplorist 400.
