Original question asked on Feb 18, 2013, 10:49am

I have one of the newer models that has the traffic receiver built into the unit and would like an extra USB cable to use in a second vehicle that has a USB power source. I have found three versions of cables with different capabilities:
1. OEM Garmin, includes GPS, charging and Traffic
2. USB cable that only shows computer icon and charges.
3. USB cable that both charges and shows GPS info - No traffic. (Cable is only 6" long)

Since the traffic receiver is internal, is there a USB cable (24" long) that will both power the GPS, Traffic receiver and charge?

All the cables will be about 5 to 6 feet long. Here is a link to a compatible charger for your unit.

Great - Do you guarantee that this will power up the 2595LMT in GPS mode? I have several USB cables that some do and others do not.
Also, any chance that this will power up the internal traffic receiver?

This is a authentic Garmin cable made for that purpose so it will power up the unit in Navigation mode. When the cable powers your unit it will also power the traffic receiver if your traffic receiver is built into the unit. We will guarantee it will work as I mentioned.

I just double checked and it is the exact same cable that comes with the unit. So no worries!

Thanks to GPSCity - The cable arrived and appears to be an exact match to the OEM Garmin power cable that Garmin told me did not exist and was not available. It is even in a Garmin labeled box. Thanks again for making these items available.
