Save ARKON GN097 Garmin Nuvi Lighter Socket Mount with Accessory Power Dongle


The idea of this mount is good, but the execution is poor.
I purchased this and thought it was great for the first few weeks I had it. Despite being extremely careful with it, the exposed wire shown in photos started separating at it's insertion point and the device charging failed after only several weeks of use. This is just like cheap headphones that lose sound in one ear after a few weeks use because the thin audio cables start to break off of the ends at the ear buds.
The end that plugs into the car's charging port also fell apart once while unplugging it, but I was able to reassemble it and use it again until that super-fragile electrical wire started to fail.
You can consider it a disposable device.
I won't buy another like this. I wish they would make one of much more rugged quality even for several dollars more cost.Get more detail about ARKON GN097 Garmin Nuvi Lighter Socket Mount with Accessory Power Dongle.
