I bought an Exec / JasJar car charger from EBay that works fine. I also have a Holux BT GPS that came with a car charger with a mini USB plug. Does anyone know if I can use the Holux car charger to charge the Exec? It's rated output is 5v DC 850mA. My feeling is that it should be okay but I am no electrican.

Thanks

I have the same exact same question. I too have a car charger that i use with my holux BT GPS and was wondering if my Jasjar battery would get fried if i use the Holux charger.

I also got a USB cigarette lighter adapter supplied with my BT GPS device (No name). The charger is 5V and has a sticker with "IC-USB M616050 CE" on it and another sticker with " e13 020749 ".

I use the normal USB cable which came with Exec.

Anyway I bit the bullet and it works great!

I hope this helps.

I checked the box my GPS device is a QSTARZ BT-Q770 receiver.

The important difference is whilst the USB charger is 5.3V (+ve is centre pole), it is only 500mA !!!

Hope this helps.
