Dear Friends,
I am having the following issue: iGO works great, but when I use the car charger after approximately 30-40 minutes the phone (diamond) gets very hot and it stops charging the battery. Than I have to wait for about 20-30 minutes and I can charge. I did not go more far.
At the beginning I was thinking maybe it gets too much sun, but not, I tried it in a bad weather too-when no sun at all. Does anyone have the same problem-and maybe knows the solution?
Thank you in advance

Hi morbon.. When you use the GPS the phone will naturally get hot and on top of that when you charge the phone while using the GPS, it will get hotter. The phone automatically disables charging when the it gets too hot to stay on the safe side. If you use the GPS alot, I would recommend getting one of those vent holders and turn on the cool air while using it so it stays cool. So dont worry, this is only a security measure and it happens on all our phones.
