This is getting silly. I have a Garmin satnav. The charging cable that came with it is standard length (about 1mtr) and will only reach the nearest cig. lighter socket by being draped across the dashboard and generally getting in the way. I would like a longer lead so I can route it neatly around the dashboard area, discretely out of the way. I have the option of USB or cig. lighter power supply so first tried a USB to mini USB cable. This all fits nicely BUT when powered up the satnav goes into data mode (as when connected to a computer for programmiming it). OK so I bought a Garmin charger with 2mtr lead. Plugged that into the cig. lighter - same thing. It goes into data mode. Does anybody know how I can find a cable long enough that will simply keep it charged without sending into data mode? Grrrr!
